webfact Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Thai gold price drops Bt650 in one day, worst in 3 yearsBy Digital Media BANGKOK, June 27 – Local gold prices adjusted 10 times yesterday to close at Bt18,250 per baht weight, the lowest in three years.The Gold Traders Association announced the latest buying/selling prices at Bt18,150/Bt18,250 per baht weight for gold bullion, and Bt17,888.80/Bt18,650 for gold ornaments.YLG Bullion and Futures said the strengthened US economy and appreciating US dollar are negative factors for gold prices, plus the forecast of lower gold prices by some European banks, including Credit Suisse, which predicted a reduction from US$1,580/ounce to US$1,400/ounce.Goldman Sachs predicts gold price at US$1,300/ounce at the end of this year and Morgan Stanley has lowered its forecast from US$1,487/ounce to US$1,409/ounce.The SPDR Gold Trust, one of the world’s largest exchange-traded funds, has gradually released gold in its custody to possess the lowest level in four years, currently at less than 969.501 tonnes.Gold in SPDR holdings declined by 16.232 tonnes in just one day, reflecting a more vulnerable gold market.YLG Bullion and Futures recommended short-term investment in gold due to major sell-out despite the slight price increase.

Popular Post bkk_mike Posted June 27, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted June 27, 2013 Why is anybody surprised? Once people stop panicking that their dollars and euros are going to be worthless in 10 years, there's no reason to buy gold as an investment as gold pays no interest and no dividend. i.e. The fall in the price of gold is, overall, a good thing, as it means sanity is returning to the markets. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does it say about the future price? Vietnam banks are scrambling to buy gold to supply shortfalls (they sold gold they didn't have and are struggeling to get now). ABN AMPRO stopped supplying gold to their gold depositors and will now pay them in cash (they sold gold they didn't have and can't get now). JP Morgan are 86,000 oz short on their June contracts which ends tomorrow. All the gold banks are going long on gold, only the retail investors are buying bonds and stocks that these banks are selling. Massive volumes of gold have left bank vaults over the last month, somethings up, time will tell. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fed can print as many $ as they want but they can't print gold. Gold is part of an investment strategy not an investment strategy. A balanced portfolio includes gold/platinum/silver, stocks, property, bonds, cash etc. Gold in my portfolio is an insurance policy against the extreme events no one thinks is plausable. But unlike the mainstream media, traders and brokers I don't make my living from selling financial products. I would however advise you to look pass the mainstream media's hype and headlines, pass the "gold is a barbaric relic" pass the Feds promise that the $ is king. Look at the investment cycles and busts we have gone through since the mid 90's and you will see all the bull runs started with the big banks/institutional investors and ended when the retail investors was in the market and those who started the runs out of the market. As I see it now the retail investors are in the market and then according to the recent history it's a good time to get out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
