...all hands on deck.

"She was my Moneypenny first, did you hear me Bond??"

The Euro is too expensive of a proposition for the secondary economies of the World. Gold leverages the financial conversation abroad and allows for a free-associative interpretation of the financial markets in Eurasia. As a commodity it is soluble and makes for viscosity in currency trading in Germany, Japan and to a lesser extent France. This opens up the discussion with China and other nation-states which act as clearing houses for the middle markets. Turkey was allowed to participate as a NATO-based option for Western Global resolve but the West failed to realize that democracy and global positioning require a wider platform for the parlayance of diversified interest—it is the basis for sovereignty.

Attempts at sanctioning have been and are premature, additionally not letting the Global Markets adjust only give rise to tension that can be deemed as useless if not spurious to a long-term American outlook. Can the Americans really ride the wave to becoming a second-rate first world country?  Is it a wise strategy? Gold trading will filter out the poor speculative trading malaise and foster good economic karma in the Middle East, Asia and the countries within the EU (read: Europa) that cannot afford the luxury of the current Euro operating expense. Play to pay is what inadvertently drives diplomatic agendas and can prove to be a stutter-step over the next several years. Beating up on Turkey is for girls, they’re getting to be all grown-up as they say and the World needs to really appreciate this as fact-- it is good for prosperity and furthers world discourse.

I have said this before, and I will say it again, the CBs of the World need some breathing room and the Euro is too one dimensional for the hassle (read: bottle-necking) that it has produced to date. If Russia and China play a world game that they are capable of they will be looking for value and a strategy that will allow for a long-term repositioning of resources and ideology. The Middle East may very well follow suit by removing diplomatic the hand holding that has arisen out of the West. We cannot nickel and dime democracy as a tool for diplomacy such actioning is corrosive to the global free-market dialogue. Trading gold cannot be looked upon as negative and should not be seen as an overly altruistic approach towards problem-solving.

THINK: Benchmarking, SWIFT, Autonomy, Economics, and Over-sanctioning.

+JO.
