Posted on by kalidas

In this article, Anil Selarka or Kalidas (His nick name), describes the folly or Americans, Brits and Europeans in imposing economic sanctions on Arabic and Muslim nations as and when they pleases and freeze their FOREX reserve lying in United States and United Kingdom. It has become self-defeating exercise for them. The Arab nations have started quoting in EURO to obviate $ freezing actions with the result that oil prices have started rising with double speed.

One rising oil price due to QE2 program by FED and another forced selling of dollar in favour of Euro. The Author has provided valuable insight into whole affairs for which there is simple solution – De-Freeze National Reserve of any country – lying in United States. Read more…

Quake in Japan, Tremors in America

Posted on by kalidas

Author Anil Selarka evaluates the aftermath of Japan tragedy of quake and tsunami. He deliberates on the options open to Japanese government and where it commits serious errors. He says that the best option open to Japan was to sell its dollar reserve and buy yen instead of just printing more and more yen which will cause most serious inflation. With Japanese government throwing almost 25 Trillion yen into the money market (equivalent to $ 300 billions), he says that this money will be up in smoke in just two days. The need of the hour for Japanese government is to indulge into tangible assets growth and its management, not paper trading like money market operations. He says that Yen contrary to all expectation will rise to 60 from 82 level against US dollar. With Japan possibly remaining absent at future treasury auctions in United States, the possibility of higher rates in USA is written all over it. If dollar weakens due to Japanese selling, Chinese the largest holder of US treasury are not going to keep quiet. They too will join Japan which may escalate the currency crisis. The author has written previous article “Enter the Second Stage of Financial Crisis” only a few weeks ago, which may become reality soon due to these unexpected events. The nature is supreme – the author says. One can not continue to suppress truth for a long time. Japanese were doing it for over 16 years, and it finally exploded with natural calamity.

The author has also penned a remarkable book “Sub Prime Resolved” which is perhaps the only book that provided total solution to the economic crisis faced by the United States and the world.

Posted on by kalidas

The Author’s prediction in December that the correction may start in third week of January and take almost 80% money out of the market on or before 21 Jan 2010 came out bang on target.
