94.1 Nixon didn't kill Bretton Woods; twas already long dead ———Ep 94.1 Summary———Fifty years ago the "Nixon Shock" closed the 'Gold Window' on "international speculators" and killed the Bretton Woods gold exchange era.

This one wasn’t nearly so perfect as the scramble for collateral had been a few Tuesdays ago. Last night’s, however, did have a sizable, visible contribution from the gold marketplace. That’s a significant tell even if it didn’t necessarily correlate by the minute with T-bills and other collateral numbers.In this instance if only because the gold “slam”, which was enormous, [...]

Economists and central bankers unaware of this wealth of information right in front of them, right here [...]

There’s another foreign angle to the grave misconceptions about what overseas financial entities are doing, and are made to do, with specifically US Treasury assets (and overall US$ assets more broadly).
