Gold mining entrepreneur, trader, and market analyst Jim Sinclair gave two interviews to the German Internet site Metallwoche, one with the freelance journalist Lars Schall, in which he talked about currency market rigging and gold’s role as money.

Metallwoche.de presents an interview with Jim Sinclair in two parts. In the first part I spoke to Mr. Sinclair about some interesting remarks Chris Powell from GATA had to say about gold in front of the Fed building in Washington D.C:
“The currency market is the most powerful mechanism of imperialism. Occupying a country militarily is nothing compared to controlling its currency market. If you control a currency market, you can get everybody to work for you as your slave. … If we can determine the value of the dollar, we can value our currency so much above what would be a market value of their currencies, we can buy their production much less expensively.”
Furthermore I asked for Mr. Sinclair’s opinion concerning the gold storage of different countries, including Germany, with the New York Fed and if these countries shall demand their gold back home. In the second interview, Mr. Sinclair argues that China and the Federal Reserve are pretty much managing the value of the euro. Audio of the interviews is posted here:
