This is where it's easy to tell Armstrong is nothing but a shill.  A rapidly valuing dollar would cause all other economies and banks to implode because they can't service debts.  If that alone doesn't bring the whole system down from default tsunami, their banks would become insolvent and have bank runs, triggering huge demand and surge in metals prices world wide.  The metals will then all be arbed out of the US completely; but is the US govt going to ship all of it's metals to China and other countries at rock bottom prices when it's already running an unstable 100:1 or more fractional metals market? lol no.

The one thing FOFOA is right about (but not much else) is that when the "flow" of metals stops, that's when the game is over and reset occurs.  If the price of gold is $2000 USD in China and $1000 in the US but nobody in China can actually buy that gold, we already know the Chinese do not want tbills, and they will demand gold for exchange of goods at ports instead.  That's when revaluation has to occur and an overnight Bretton Woods gigantic surge in metals price happens.

The spread in metals prices is the key sign of reset, and it's currently giant and getting bigger ($2 spread for silver? haha).  This shill Armstrong wants us to believe that everyone walking the planet is an idiot (and people who are rich are supposed to not be idiots) and that when they see bank runs in their country, they are all going to invest solely in worthless USD toilet paper instead of metals.  NOT gonna happen.

They all know the US economy is a house of cards just like theirs and there's no point in doing that besides short term speculation.  People with gigantic sums of money do not bet it all on short term speculation, they put the majority into the "sure thing" which is not USD.  The US govt even talks about freezing money from foreign countries every week from places like the Saudis and Iran.  NOBODY wants their money trapped in this prison here, which is why you will see the metals spread continue to increase until forced revaluation.

The #1 goal in deflationary collapse isn't to go all in on USD, that's a joke.  The goal in deflationary collapse is to get rid of all counter party risk because the value of an asset issued by an insolvent institution is zero.  You can't ban cash to force people into USD when people already know the emperor has no clothes.  Again, all of Armstrong's assumptions presume everyone in the market is a fucking idiot.

Armstrong and Harry Dent's goal seems to be to keep as many people out of the metals market as possible for when they do their surprise new Bretton Woods revaluation of gold to $20,000 overnight that can happen at any random time (which will also have technical traders send silver to the moon along with it - you can't revalue gold in a vacuum without affecting any other commodity unlike what these FOFOA fools claim).
