Global strategist Marin Katusa is the New York Times best selling author of The Colder War, which details the geo-political power shift that threatens the global dominance of the United States. He’s also a well known resource hedge fund manager who legendary investor Doug Casey has called one of the best market analysts he’s ever worked with. His prior forecasts noted that countries around the world would soon stop trading commodities like oil in the U.S. dollar, something we’re already seeing with China, Russia, Iran, and Venezuela, all of which are preparing non-dollar, gold-backed mechanisms of exchange.
This trend, according to Katusa in a must see interview with Future Money Trends, will only continue to weaken the U.S. dollar going forward and the result will be a massive capital flight to gold in coming years:
I think we’ll have a near term bounce on the U.S. dollar… then it’s going to be very weak… and then it’s going to go much, much lower… With China and Russia working together to de-dollarize the U.S. dollar starting with oil, which is the biggest market… and then all the other commodities.
You’re going to start seeing a massive unwind of these U.S. dollars in the emerging markets.Â
…
When that money comes back… which it will… and the world starts cluing in that the emerging markets need gold to convert the Yuan and the Ruble and all these different factors, you’re going to see a massive rush for gold.
Watch the full interview:
Katusa notes that he is preparing to “load up” on gold-based assets as the dollar strengthens and puts additional pressure on gold prices, but says that by next year major fund managers will start moving capital back into precious metals in response to dollar weakness, global de-dollarization and economic crisis:
Everybody wants to rush in when something’s exciting… but you take your position before the massive flow of money… I think we have a near term dead cat bounce for the U.S. dollar… which will mean we’re going to have a little bit of weakness here in gold in the near term… the next six months is my time to load up.
…And when the funds flow come in… it’s going to be the equivalent of Niagra Falls coming through your garden hose.
The geo-political realignment taking place now stands to upend the financial and economic systems as we know them. This shift will not come without crisis and panic. The time to position yourself in gold-based assets is now.

the signs are everywhere. best be stocking up. and not just with gold but food and other preps. because if gold prices rise to $2000 or $3000 it will mean we’ve had a serious collapse.
They sure have been doing a heck of a job keeping everything propped up. It’s only a matter of time now.
It will sure make paying off my mortgage in USD so much easier, once I convert my meager gold holdings.
durango kiddy is in denial, even though all the signs reflect the Yuan is backed by Gold. He thinks $10 bills in #10 cans is king. LMFAO!! I call it expensive wall paper in a can. Convert all if your dillars into Silver and Gold. You can rhank me later.
Meant to say US Dollars.
Sure, we’ll rhank you later.
It’s very important to have plenty of TP when SHTF. Thus the #10 cans stuffed with $10 bills.
China and Russia teaming up to destroy us. They will do it without firing a shot.
OBOR and BRICS. They have slowly but surely been building up the trade networks.
Yuan backed gold for oil will really bite us. Within the next 6-8 months Americanos will
start to feel the pinch. If people think the dollar won’t buy shit now, just wait. Trump has really been ratcheting up the RocketMan talk in the last couple days. I think the Deep State
has him by the nuts. We’ll see.
Meant to say gold backed Yuan.
CSS: The Yuan is NOT yet backed by gold, and the PROPOSED conversion of Yuan to Gold on the China Oil Exchange for the Uber Rich is designed to support the Chinese Gold Mining Industry by creating demand for gold (China is the largest producer of gold); and undermine US Dollar Hegemony.
Don’t think for a minute that commissions on that conversion will disappear. Its a tax levied by the Chinese government by any other name.
Stuff your Gold Backed Yuan into number ten cans and see how easily you can spend them when the SHTF. 🙂
And they continue to club gold like a baby seal…
Screw gold. Silver I can understand a bit. Easy to use in small(er) denominations. Me? I prefer base metals. Lead. I’ve around a ton of it stored. Copper. Zinc. Far more useful and more likely to be in real demand should the worst happen. Vice substances – tobacco, (though not a drinker myself) alcohol, most any pharmaceutical, sweets and sugar(s) – all useful for day-to-day barter. But gold? You can’t eat it. Can’t have enough of the actual metal really to do much with it in a practical manner. At least silver you can use for cooking, eating…..
All the markets including metas are propped up and will only fail when the govts. fall.
Wrong crash n burn. Smart people flee to Gold and Silver for safety and preservation of wealth in a Crash. Gold and Silver have been real currency for thousands of years. Its not changing just cause you said so.
Thats only when there’s inflation…. if they devalue the dollar….you get deflation. Gold will have value…just not its current inflated one.
The purchasing power of gold and silver will remain relatively constant even as price and demand fluctuates; even in a massive deflationary event.
Everyone should old what gold & silver they can afford, and keep ten dollar bills in number ten cans. 🙂
I dont think you quite have the hang of deflation/inflation. When they print the dollar they devalue the dollar which equates to increasing inflation. And they are always printing. Perhaps as I heard yesterday that increasing the interest-rate will increase the value of metals. ATB…
Scripture says in the last days people will throw their gold and silver in the streets.
It will eventually become worthless like everything else.
In the meanwhile, stack stack stack hahaha
Those who throw their gold and silver in the streets will be fleeing wind, and waves, and earthquakes and they will not want the metal to slow them down.
They will also likely need what space they have … to carry food, water, and ammo: the three basic essentials. Be there to get there and your gold will be there with you. 🙂
We save all of our change. I not worried about paper money because their aint that much paper in circulation. As long as I can use that paper to pay my property taxes I aint a bit worried. Its those digital dollars that will disappear into the thin air that they are created out of. I knew a older woman who,s father was a school teacher during the depression. He was paid in script by the county board of education. And nobody would accept the county IOU script. She stated her father would set and cry because he couldn’t buy anything. So they grew all their food and mainly starved through the depression. Her father wasn’t robust and couldnt do manual labor. So he Taught school and saved the worthless script. After things got better he went to the tax auction at the courthouse steps and purchased over 2000 acres of land. and paid for it with the county script. It might not have worked except his brother was the county sheriff who conducted the auction.
Good Story. Thumbs up.
I really can’t afford gold but I can do some silver. Is it better to have the silver eagles or the junk silver? everyone feel free to chime in. trying to do what is the smartest.
I suggest you buy the item with the lowest premium. Pre-1965 circulated U.S. coins (“junk”) are just as recognizable, and have the equally-recognized purity (90%, not 99,9%) as the higher-premium Eagles. You get more silver for your (fiat)buck. What’s not to like? Trading counterfeit paper for REAL money!
Thanks for the explanation. I’ve wondered the same thing.
DK has been here longer than anyone that currently post in this thread. He is refering to Mushroom’s comments on $10 bills in #10 cans from 10 years ago. DK is solid. When the new clowns came aboard here, some of the original posters left. I have not seen any comments from Mushroom in a long time.
Good Lord!!!! I’ve heard this back in the 1970″s.
Buy Gold and Silver if will fix everything?????
Sgt.
The folks that told you that back in the 70’s were way ahead of the curve.
I’m with you SGT, You know what everyone of these story’s have in common, they all say the same thing. I like you, have been reading this same crap since the 80’s, and you know what, IT NEVER HAPPENS!! But that doesn’t stop the next story from coming out in a few weeks, with the same bold headlines saying JUST WAIT!!! it’s right around the corner, this time it’s for sure, BUY GOLD!!!
The US has all the gold in Ft. Knox, or do they? If it exists apparently it’s not the peoples gold. The bankers bought it with fiat dollars, that it’s in private hands seems entirely possible. When is the last time you have ever heard anyone in government talk about ending the Fed? Never in modern times. I’ve heard audit the Fed that is ignored. I know JFK was aiding the Vietnam War effort early in his term allowing Agent Orange type defoiliant spraying. I believe he wanted the US out of Vietnam midterm though some disagree. When he printed United States Notes in early 1963 and had some circulated he was murdered. LBJ immediately destroyed the rest upon taking office and poured hundreds of thousands of troops into Vietnam while covering up the truth of the deliberate attack on the USS Liberty.
That was well over 50 years ago and the stupid American public still has not even realized
or understood what transpired. Why should they? We have the NFL, NBA, MLB, and stupid
pop culture. Porn. Powerball. Keep them entertained and they will always be ignorant.
The answer to your question is Ron Paul 2008 presidential debate and currently his son Rand.
Don’t panic, nothing is gonna happen. (said Quanah to his father Peta Nacona)…Rocket Man has already started his first Ridelin prescription. Everything will be alright!
I just read up upon the Rothshildes loading up on gold.
There’s your signal, you’re too late, the bigshots have filled their pockets already with the most gold.
They toss you the scraps.
If the petrol dollar is taken down and the dollar collapses, the US government will go insane.
The government will want to immediately confiscate all the privately owned gold that they can get. A financial state of emergency will be used. It will be very hard to sell a gold coin, and if you do the IRS will want to tax you for the extra dollars they claim you made.
If gold goes from $1,300 an ounce to $20,000 an ounce. That will be a very visible transaction.
I really recommend silver coins, the smaller value per ounce will likely let you sell coins with less scrutiny. If silver goes from $17 an ounce to $250 an ounce it will be easy to trade.
You won’t actually make money on these transactions, but precious metals should retain value in a dollar collapse. The amount of silver that would buy a weeks groceries, should still buy a weeks worth of groceries, but the US dollars used today to buy those groceries probably wouldn’t cover the sales tax after a crash.
In the chaos, many will be going hungry. Having stored food can keep you off the streets if there are food riots and looting. Silver and gold are for after things calm down.
