Barron: Greek Situation Catastrophic, Expect More Black Swans

Today one of the legends in the gold world told King World News the Greek situation will be catastrophic as it plays out over time. Keith Barron is responsible for one of the largest gold discoveries in history and consults with major gold companies around the world as well as international brokerage houses. Barron also said investors should expect to see more black swans on the horizon. Here is how Barron described the situation: “As I predicted, there have been massive payouts due to default insurance kicking in. The banking industry has been looking at this and the individuals involved must be thinking they are going to have the same situation the next time Greece defaults.”

Keith Barron continues:


“All they did was kick the can down the road. They have had a lot of time to try to get these contracts worked out. This is what they should have been doing over the last several weeks, working very hard to unwind a lot of these situations.

John Williams - Intensifying Crisis & Staggering Unemployment

John Williams just warned that the ongoing financial problems have horrendous implications for the markets and systemic stability. Williams, who founded ShadowStats, also noted that U6 unemployment levels are not being reported by the mainstream media and they are at staggering levels. Here is what Williams had to say about the situation: “The outlook for the broad economy remains bleak, despite relatively upbeat February payroll data. Deterioration in the January trade deficit and related revisions suggest negative impact on first-quarter 2012 GDP reporting, along with increasing downside pressure on the U.S. dollar from underlying economic and political fundamentals.”

John Williams continues:


“Systemic-solvency and liquidity issues continue to plague the Fed and to restrain U.S. economic activity. Bank lending remains impaired, while household income has taken a new hit, as indicated in recent reporting. Separately, as detailed in the Hyperinflation Watch, annual and monthly growth in the broad money supply appears to be stalling, again. That likely is a further indication of mounting difficulties in the systemic-solvency crisis.
