Be Careful: G20 Meeting to Have Major Effects On Currencies and Stocks; How to Profit

The G20 meeting, which we have written so much about, starts tonight with a dinner in Pittsburgh. The other 19 nations are extremely upset at the collapse of the U.S. Dollar. The situation is truly explosive and the meeting could well have major effects on the markets, currencies, and gold.

The likely outcome is either all hell breaks loose if they can't reach an agreement, or that the U.S. Dollar is supported, at least temporarily. The latter seems to be favoured as yesterday the Fed announced they will be doing no more POMOs.

The likely outcome if a agreement is reached is that the U.S. Dollar will go up, gold will go down, stocks will fall.
