Pete Grant and Jonathan Kosares discuss the federal government bailout of the U.S. financial sector and its inflationary ramifications. Also offered are a few words about physical gold shortages and the initial signs of a growing price divergence between the physical gold market versus the price of 'paper gold' quoted on the gold derivatives market. For additional insight on the unfolding price divergence between the increasingly tight physical market and the likely-discounted derivative markets, please see the August 27th commentary on price discovery and the supplemental September 10th commentary on supply and demand originally offered by Randy Strauss at our Discussion Forum.
