As we kickoff the first week of trading in January, today the man who has become legendary for his predictions on QE, historic moves in currencies, warned King World News that the West is now approaching the “brick wall.”

West Rapidly Approaching The “Brick Wall”
Egon von Greyerz:  “On the first day of the new year it would be totally natural to forecast what the likely events and trends will be for the coming year. A lot of experts around the world will predict a number of ‘new’ events as if a lot of things will change just because we are entering a new year…

Egon von Greyerz continues:  “But sadly, I will disappoint everyone and not change direction in any single area that I have been talking about on King World News for many years. Trends don’t change because we are in a new year. Most important trends take a long time to develop and even longer to reach a turning point.

The Creation Of A Monster
What started with the creation of the Fed in December 1913, led to the biggest experiment in Alchemy that the world has ever experienced. Alchemy is the process of turning base metals to gold. But Alchemy also means a seemingly magical process of transformation and creation. Alchemy derives from Greek with a bit of Arabic (“Al”) and simply means black magic.

And black magic or Alchemy is exactly what the bankers who met on Jekyll Island practiced in order to set up the Federal Reserve Bank. This would be the central bank of the US that would be owned by private bankers and for the benefit of these bankers. This extremely clever and devious conspiracy followed the words of Mayer Amschel Rothschild who 100 years earlier had said:

“Give me control of the nation’s money and I care not who makes its laws.”

Banksters Maintain Control Of The Money
So from the beginning of 1914, the Alchemy experiment started turning paper into money. The money printing and credit creation bonanza, which has lasted for almost 100 years, almost came to an abrupt end during the 2006-2009 Great Financial Crisis. The financial system was staring into the abyss in 2007, but the bankers were not going to give up easily their “very successful” 100 year experiment in Alchemy. The virtually bankrupt investment banks like JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs told the Fed and all central bankers what they needed to do to save the system, and another massive dose of Alchemy was created to the extent of around $25 trillion. This made it possible for the bankers to hold onto their global financial empire and maintain control of the money.….more here
