Warum werden keine € emittiert und damit diese tollen"high-yield currencies" gekauft? Wer profitiert davon ausser den Bullion-Banken (und den zu spät gekommenen Anlegern [img][/img] )?

Gruss

-->Was mir auffiel:
1. Strauß - Kohen, ist das nicht ein jüdischer Name (Kohen= Name der höchsten (Priester-) kaste?
2. Welche wirklich bedeutenden Währungen werfen derzeit hohe Zinsen ab?
3. Welche größere Währung entwertet sich nicht nennenswert?
4. Welche größere Währung hat einen Nettowertgewinn (Zinsen vs. ECHTE Inflation)
5. und wichtigster Punkt: Welche Währung ist nennenswert stärker gestiegen, als Gold?

Fazit:
Was für Fäden werden hier gezogen?

-->gegenwärtig immer noch 9,50 % Zinsertrag auf Festgeld-Konti und
Währung bleibt stabil.

Eventuell kauft Ms. Strauss sogar türk. Lira mit den Golderlösen,
dort bekommt sie sogar 12,50 % p.a.

Solche Rechnungen stellen auch andere an, nur fürchte ich Gold,
wird diese mediokren Zins-Erträge in den Jahren 2006 - 2008 weit
hinter sich lassen!

Emerald.

PS: 'British Pounds we dont like for reason of"alte Geschichten"?
