Taxi Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 On January 1 2020 the us dollar gold price was $1,520, today it's $1,940, yeah it's getting smashed. It's actually consolidating above the historical all time high which was about $1,920. Golds on a long term uptrend and the real economic pain hasn't hit the US yet. Wait until all those government cheques and Fed bailout programs slow down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Tracy Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I see the phrase 'negative territory' and wonder if it means that the price has fallen. Fallen, past participle of a verb. That feels very harsh, how about; decreased. Not so scary... This is such a waste of the English Language. I saw the price of diesel was in negative territory last week. It had gone down a couple of satang since last I looked.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It always ends the same way. Produce more than you consume or you're stealing from somebody. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All time high was $2188 which was in 1980, it's next highest level was approximately $2093 in 2011. will you make money investing in gold at the current levels.......highly unlikely unless you are happy to wait years for a poxy 10% gain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could use myself as an example where I sold my house in the US in 2005 and put a large chunk of the proceeds into Pamp Suisse bars. However...As the saying goes...past performance does not guarantee future returns. I haven’t sold and have no intention on doing so. Someday, when I die, it will be passed on. Hopefully my heirs...whoever they might be (no children) will get the stepped up basis. I do however feel, that if gold is good enough for central banks around the world to hoarde, then owning some probably isn’t such a bad idea. Would I buy more today at this price? Well...that’s hard to say. I can only speak for my own personal situation and I feel that I have enough. I’m not ruled by greed. I can say however that “we live in interesting times” currently and it will be interesting to see where this all ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnabe Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 It will go up to $2500 at least, but not in a few weeks. I’m aiming for middle or end of next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
