flying Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 (edited) When will gold find support above $1500? Support will be after $1500 is breached & has bounced a few time or goes sideways a bit. But if you mean break resistance at $1500..... It has broken through & is at $1501.90 tonight as I type this Edited April 20, 2011 by flying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flying Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Both Gold & Silver have been chugging along again today Gold at $1508 & Silver looking at $46/oz It is as I expected for gold but again still a bit amazed at Silver. Although I always felt Silver would do well I thought it would be a bit later after gold had risen even higher. What ever the reason seeing the G/S ration drop under 33 now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taggart Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Did you ever feel a few years after, say in the late 1990's that your Gold Eagle coins may have been a bad investment? No because I don't view gold as an investment at all. For me it is insurance against a corrupt government destroying the purchasing power of the USD that my income is denominated in. So I view all the money I have ever spent on gold as a premium payment for a policy that, like other insurance policies, I never hope to actually need. Thus I never plan to sell my gold regardless of price unless it becomes the only remaining store of liquid wealth I have, which will be the case in the (increasingly likely IMO) event of a global currency crisis. Aye, but weren't Americans told in the early 1980's to find a cave and buy a shotgun to protect their gold. Then around the same time, the Japanese were so financially powerful, that they would be be over there buying up all the valuable assets in the U.S. I've been around long enough to know we've all been on this same road before, and nothing came to pass.

p_brownstone Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 I have just put a chunk of money into KBANK Gold Fund (KASGOLD:TB on bloomberg)- anyone else in this fund? I know I will be jumped on by the more “serious” Investors in this Forum but I would under no circumstances "Invest" in what is essentially simply paper. If you look at the figures, the amount of “Gold” being traded in these Funds is far more than the amount of Gold that has ever been mined - worldwide. When, (if?), the world’s economies implode and you need to redeem your paper “Certificates” for whatever is needed to survive, you will find that there is no actual metal to back up the paper – well, there may be but dozens of other Investors are under the impression that they own it too! Physical ownership of assets which can be reasonably quickly liquidated is the only way to Invest at the moment. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloudhopper Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 The Chicom announcement they are selling 2/3 of their USTs seems to have given the inedible metal a boost. But - don't they have to sell those for...USDs??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I should have said proposal not announcement. I bet they're turning their USDs into gold as fast and as surreptitiously as they can without spiking the price...

churchill Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 From http://traderdannorcini.blogspot.com/2011/04/silver-reaches-within-20-cents-of-50.html#comments Silver reaches within 20 cents of $50 Silver is on fire in Asian trading this evening moving to a session high of $49.82 after which is rapidly dropped a full $1.00 in price before bouncing back over $49 again. It is extremely volatile right now and I mean "VOLATILE". The price is swinging all over the place within mere seconds. Its strength is helping to pull Gold higher as well which has gone on to hit a new all time high at $1518.40 as I write this. What is remarkable about this is that the Dollar is actually higher this evening in Asian trade. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TXBUjaoIHqM/TbUFU-rInlI/AAAAAAAAAXQ/g5H6rb5855E/s1600/snapshot-647.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
