Loading ...because they collapse against GOLD ,not against the cost of using the currency ! the Russian currency collapse was the trigger ,followed by YEN .. and then a cascade in a race to the bottom ! It dosent matter what the cost of using money is when nobody wants it. They shot themselves in the foot with the gang up on the Russian currency as they started an uncontrolled AVALANCHE.. The interest rates of any currency wont mean anything when no one trusts its value and stability. PAPER will BURN and with no where to turn, printing more to save it is like lighting a match .PRINT ,PRINT only takes perfectly good paper puts INK on it and makes it worthless .! Inflation in Germany cause people to burn money to keep warm . History repeats to be followed by a DICTATOR that says put me in office and Ill fix the problem ,his name was Adolph and he fixed the currency problem..ALL paper currencies are related ,its like picking the cleanest shirt in the dirty laundry to wear. When the paper avalanche gets going ,nothing will stop it until the momentum stops. GOLD is the only ANCHOR that can stop the race to the bottom.The WEST started it along with NATO ,now all they can do is find someone to blame to cover their Political asses. Paper is PAPER no matter where its printed .They all go down when one goes down !.
