Where Is Gold Going In This Market

Gaddafi gold-for-oil, dollar-doom plans behind Libya 'mission'?

I am glad they mentioned the result of Saddam trying to switch the oil sales from dollars also.

for GOD's sake no conspiracy theories gentlemen! use a wee bit of logic please. yes, it's all about crude oil whether it's Iraq, Libya or the Bolivariano Republic de Teniente Coronel Hugo Chavez el Magnifico y pain in the ass of Washington.

"EUR for crude" or "gold for crude" was nothing but pinching the Greatest Nation on Earth™

reason: those who sell crude can accept any currency and use in a nanosecond (or even futures) that currency to buy another currency or a commodity.

Oh so now gold IS a currency?

That aside I do think it is not a conspiracy theory at all.

Yes as you say they can convert in a nano second after the deal is closed

but ...would they?

Why would they? If they no longer *need* to in order to purchase oil.

That is the difference.

Today xxxxxx USD has to be used to buy oil.

If that was not a requirement then there would surely be less USD in circulation or needed to be.

That is a lot of loss of ....I have forgotten the word? AH yes seigniorage revenue

the effective interest-free loan generated by issuing additional currency to nonresidents that hold U.S. notes and coins—that generates an estimated $10 billion

In any case if USD of that quantity is used even for a day there is a huge benefit.

that is rubbish³ spread by zeroblogspotmaxkeiseralphavillegloomers.com and some clowns who have no idea about finances and global trade.

correct is: crude oil is priced in USD and can be paid for in any freely convertible currency. period! the same goes e.g. for gold which is priced in USD but can be bought with any acceptable currency.

use your brains gentlemen! don't accept what fairy tales clowns are telling you even though the $/oil fairy tale is decades old.

NO it is NOT!

It is a commodity like all others and like Silver ..demand is outstripping supply and so price is going up / when will that change ?

Why should Gold go up ? It does not have any uses , unlike silver , but demand increases demand , traders look at charts .. Will it crash --- it is coming but when ... I think it has some time to run - Take internet stocks that went from pennies to 80 / 90 pennies ++

-- perhaps that is where we are with gold as more and more get sucked in from 1K to 50K ...... ?

Silver --imo will rise with gold but not fall as much .

oh yes it does

Yes agreed & you said it clearer.

But I still believe there would be a great loss of USD control over it.

Obviously if Gaddafi was successful in pricing & demanding payment of it in gold dinars as told in that video...

What you really mean is that the USD fell to its historical all time low value of 0.000526 ounces of gold...

I think it is important to remind people that the price it is not so much the result of gold appreciating than the USD falling... almost free fall and accelerating...

That is basically true but a reminder that gold is rising against all currencies not just the USD.

In fact in recent days the USD has also been rising and now sits at 75.18

this is not my perception but facts and logic. ask yourself the question "can i buy gold, oil, copper and whatever by paying with Swiss Francs, EURos. Japanese Yen, British Pounds...?"

should your answer be "no" then you qualify for the certificate "...possesses a wealth of financial no idea".

'BANGKOK: Thailand’s central bank board will discuss a plan to set up a sovereign wealth fund as suggested by the finance minister and expects to have a conclusion in a month, the central bank governor said yesterday.'

'The idea came from Energy Minister Pichai Naripthaphan who said the government would talk to the central bank about setting up such a fund and using some of the country’s foreign reserves to invest in commodities such as gold and oil and in yuan-denominated assets, in light of the weakness in the dollar.'

Gold making a run for the all time USD high in Asia/Euro markets

$1914 as of now

Looking like the intraday $1917 high may be broken.

Edited September 6, 2011 by flying

[Lost in LOS]

But if you look here you will see...

not much..

as of today (Saturday) Thai Gold Traders Association quotes Gold Bar 96.5% sale THB 26,600 per Baht weight. here we go:

http://phuketindex.c...date-gold-e.htm

THB 26000 (965) = THB 27,565 (999)*2*1.015625 = THB 55,991/29.75 = USD 1,882/ounce = where's the beef?

by the time you calculated all that it was 1883 so its outdated

Looks like central bankers are beginning to panic .....

As the politicians have more meetings ... I see German , Dutch , Finnish Finance ministers having a meeting ??

"The Swiss central bank says it is setting a minimum franc exchange rate of 1.20 against the euro - #EUR #forex #fx'

Gold up to $1920 then down to $1860 in an hour or so ...

[churchill]

'Swiss National Bank fixes the exchange rate of 1.20 francs per euro - AP'

So I suppose next Japan will fix their currency to the $ ......

Whilst Gold becomes the only true currency

Euro Zone rate cut coming ..

'ECB President Jean-Claude Trichet signaled last week the bank may revise its assessment that there is a risk of inflation accelerating.

“It’s inevitable for the ECB to change their stance on inflation,” said Toshiya Yamauchi, a senior currency analyst in Tokyo at Ueda Harlow Ltd., which provides foreign-exchange margin-trading services. “If they don’t immediately lower borrowing costs, they may at least signal interest-rate cuts. The euro will trade lower heading into the ECB meeting.”'
