Robert Wiedemer: False Economic Recovery and Updates on Gold, Stocks and the Fed

From Greg Hunter

Published on Feb 9, 2014 http://usawatchdog.com/100-fake-recov... Author Bob Wiedemer says, "You are actually getting negative growth. The Fed knows this. They just don't talk about it because their job is to be a cheerleader. They want to try to make everybody feel good and that their policies are working. If those policies don't work, what's the Fed going to do? What are we going to do? It's a bigger issue, but bottom line here is I think the banks are safe in the sense the Fed can bail them out, but there will come a point when the Fed can't and won't, and that's when you got a bigger problem."

Yes I have staying up late to watch the Aussies get lucky at the Sochi Winter Olympics and they are doing very well (well considering it only snows in the ski fields of Australia for about 3 months of the year).
