As we continue to kickoff the new year, today the man who has become legendary for his predictions on QE and historic moves in currencies, warned King World News that governments and central banks are about to totally lose control of the global financial system, ushering in $10,000 gold, $667 silver and global panic.

January 15 (King World News) – Egon von Greyerz:  “The world is now between Scylla and Charybdis, which means between two evils. Thus, there is no solution or positive outcome of the the present state of the world economy. Scylla is the rock or the six headed monster, while Charybdis is a whirlpool or a black hole (a hard place). 

Since 2006-2009, governments and central banks believe that they have made it through the strait of Messina, passing through Scylla and Charybdis, but sadly they are mistaken. The world is still desperately trying to get through the inescapable passage that would lead to safety. By printing unlimited amounts of money and thus doubling global debt, there is a general belief that the world has passed the dangers. But sadly that is not the case. We are still in very dangerous waters.

Will the world economy be trapped by Scylla, the rock, and incur damages that will have severe consequences for the world economy for years or even decades? Or will we be unlucky to be caught by the whirlpool or black hole of Charybdis? Let’s hope not, especially since that would mean the end of the world as we know it for a very, very long time. 

In Greek mythology, Odysseus managed to pass by Scylla according to Homer. So instead of losing everything, Odysseus just lost a number of the crew on his ship by being caught by Charybdis. Hopefully the world will be just as fortunate. 

Governments & Central Banks Are About To Lose Control


Last week on KWN I discussed the inevitable trends that the world would encounter in 2018 — a final hurrah for stocks, a falling dollar, rising interest rates and higher gold and silver prices as well as higher commodity prices. Well, one week later it is all happening. But this is just the beginning. We are now entering a period when governments and central banks will totally lose control of markets as their manipulation fails…

Egon von Greyerz continues:  “I have long maintained that the laws of nature will prevail and that the manipulation we have have seen in markets in the last couple of decades would fail. In the last week I had an experience that confirmed the power of the law of nature. This is a power that is so strong that once it is triggered, no government or central bank can stop it, regardless of how much fake news, trillions of dollars of money printing, or market manipulation they throw at the problem.

The Avalanche Destroyed Everything In Its Path
 
Last weekend I was in the Swiss Alps in village of Zermatt at the base of the famous Matterhorn. For several days we had a relentless snowfall not seen for decades. The snow blocked the access to the village both by train and by road for many days. The force of this avalanche was of a magnitude that destroyed everything in its path. 

This is exactly what we will experience in the world economy and financial markets in coming years. Most avalanches occur spontaneously due to the increased load of snow. Eventually that last snowflake and the weight of the snow triggers the avalanche. Money printing, fake news, and government manipulation, has temporarily managed to set aside the laws of nature but eventually Mother Nature will have her way. 

And the truth is that a manipulative elite has managed to totally destroy the natural forces of the ebb and tide of markets. There are natural cycles in nature that move gently between peaks and troughs. These cycles are self-correcting without any human interference or manipulation. But there are times in history when mankind want to play God and endeavors to set aside the laws of nature. This is what the world has experienced in the last 100 years, with an elite interfering with the natural forces of supply and demand by manipulating the economy and financial markets. They have skillfully done this for a century without taking responsibility for the consequences. In the next few years, the world will experience the repercussions of the disastrous mismanagement of the world economy that governments and the elite have artificially constructed.


Belief In The Lies Is Coming To An End
 
We are now reaching the point when propaganda, outright lies, money printing, artificial interest rates, or any other form of manipulation, will cease to have any effect. The sheer force of the avalanche will kill all fake maneuvers and attempted manipulations. And as the avalanche crushes everything in its path, it will pulverize the financial system, stock markets, bond markets, as well as all markets that have been inflated or manipulated by a crooked elite. This means that banks will either go bust or that the money will be worthless due to unlimited money printing. 

Stocks will go down by 90% or more in real terms, bonds will be worthless, social security will not exist, pensions will be wiped out and property values will decline by 75% to 95% in real terms (vs gold). 

This is the magnitude of the avalanche that the world is likely to experience in coming years. Could I be wrong? Well, I hope I will be. But sadly, I fear I will be right. The only question is, can governments and central banks can delay it for another few years or if the force of the avalanche is too strong this time? 

Global Panic Is Coming
 
One thing is certain, global debt at $240 trillion plus unfunded liabilities of $250 trillion and derivatives of $1.5 quadrillion, which is risk totaling $2 quadrillion, can never be repaid. However it happens and however long it takes, the debt must be eliminated. And once it is, all of the assets linked to this debt will also implode. But before the implosion, we are likely to have hyperinflation as desperate governments hopelessly attempt to inflate the debt away. 

The world can never start a new growth phase without first eliminating the debt. That will inevitably lead to poverty, famine, social unrest, war and misery. But unfortunately that is the consequence of the disastrous mismanagement of the world economy in the last 100 years. 

Get Prepared
 
So what can we all do in the meantime? Here are a few tips:
* Get out of the stock market on the coming final rally
* Get out of the bond market
* Get out of debt
* Get out of investment property
* Don’t depend on a pension system which is likely to fail
* Don’t expect the government to look after you
* If you lose your job, plan how you can survive. There are lots of services that are in demand in a depression.
* If you have savings, don’t keep them in the banking system
* Hold gold and silver outside the banking system
* Family and friends are extremely important in difficult times. Create a circle of mutual dependence and trust.

All of this might sound depressing. As I said, let’s hope it won’t happen but be prepared.

The world has survived unlimited crises throughout history and whatever happens in the coming years is not going to be the end of the world. But be prepared for the coming avalanche and try to navigate carefully in order to avoid the worst risks of Scylla and Charybdis. Remember that bad times have many benefits also. The golden calf or material things become less important. Instead, relationships, friendship, and helping others become a priority. This will alleviate the hardship that most of us will suffer.
