True or false, no gold is available to buy in Bangkok?

http://networkedblogs.com/JZVJz

Look how often with any commodity in Thailand, people simply refuse to budge at a certain price and will just sit on the asset. Look how many condominiums remain empty for many years, if the owner cannot achieve the asking price. Are we seeing this kind of thing in Thailand now with gold?

anybody who believes the rubbish "no gold to buy in BKK" did not take for several days the medication the good doctor prescribed.

This is news to me …………!

Soros on gold…

people sold their physical gold. It wasn’t a Fed-backed paper generated swamping of the market with short selling? It was people selling their gold according to George.

isn't any opinion/view available on the internet nowadays? all what one has to do is use the appropriate syntax.

Comex Gold Inventories Collapse By Largest Amount Ever On Record

April 9, 2013 | By Tekoa Da Silva

Over the last 90 days without any announcement, stocks of gold held at Comex warehouses plunged by the largest figure ever on record during a single quarter since eligible record keeping began in 2001 (roughly the beginning of the bull market). See chart below.

Just to put things into perspective.... If you earn your money in Japan Yen and used Yen to buy your gold... today gold just hit a 32 year high when priced in JPY

http://www.forexlive.com/blog/2013/04/09/great-day-for-the-gold-bulls-in-japan/

Gold priced in yen hit a 32-year high today.

A closer look at the chart shows a more precarious position. The short-term chart narrowly ticked above the February high after a false breakout to the downside early last week. Oftentimes false-breakout reversals can be extremely powerful but until it gets comfortably above the February high, it’s not quite fair to bet that it will continue surging.

I have been a gold bear for awhile but the non-farm payrolls report takes away the near-term risk of Fed tapering and is likely to lead to a continued rally.

I hear from Silverdoctor.com that gold hit a high in both cowrie shells and dung beetle antlers this week too...... (can't find the chart)

the usual exaggeration by the good doctores argenti. it is a well known fact that the common dungbeetle antler (antlerus dungbeetulus) is a much sought after aphrodisiac by the male inhabitants of the Chinese province Heilongjiang where 60mg extract trades for 1¾ gold-presses Latinum equal to 6½ ounces of 999.9 fine gold.

Oh dear …..I worry that my fellow countrymen are far too trusting! Trusting the wrong people is why there have recently been so many major scams involving retirement savings.

In my opinion this is a very, very bad idea!

For example how would you know that the chairman of a private company isn't a Jon Corzine type of guy?

I'm sorry but the Japan Yen is one of the major currencies of the world. Are you honestly trying to compare it to dung beetle antlers in order to discredit the facts?

you posted a fact but for most readers an irrelevant fact Jayman. add to it that (as far as investments are concerned) the hindsight use of "if" is irrelevant too.

That gold made new 32 year highs in the gold thread is hardly irrelevant.

My use of the word "if" was done to please the readership here as just stating the fact that gold hit a 32 year high when priced in JPY would have met the normal misleading comments that gold is only priced in USD when clearly it's not.

In fact, at the twice daily gold price fixing in London, gold's price is fixed in EURO, GBP, and USD.

and where would you think those prices are derived from? Sorry to say but you are wrong, Gold is a pure USD trade unless there is an unregulated over the counter deal. The prices you see quoted are with slight deviations rooted in currency exchange.

See for yourself what the LBMA does and how they fix the gold price twice daily and have been doing so since 1919. http://www.goldfixing.com/

Oil had been a pure USD based commodity until recently, perhaps you are confusing oil and gold?

yes must be that I have confused it with oil or maybe with pork bellies. But I do agree there is no point to argue further.

USD @ 82.2 now below 82.1 Thursday

Gold at $1505 now

Looks like it went all the way to $1490 before it found support around $1500. Hopefully gold will close above $1500 today or it could really get ugly.

Yes $1550-ish range has been getting hammered a few times now

I was just wondering earlier today if it would hold.

Seems it did not so your earlier prediction may come thru.

I did not expect $1550 to break as it did.

$1520/22 was supposed to be a strong support but gold crashed right through it. I would see it a bullish sign if it closes above that area ($1522 or so) but just a close above $1500 would be ok by me. If we close below $1500 then all bets are off hold on to your hats.
