After slipping in value, gold is once again near its all-time highs

Mar. 5, 2009

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette -- An enduring symbol of wealth and an object of fascination since the dawning of recorded history, gold has outshined its peers in the troubled investment world and is once again selling near its all-time high.

Equity markets also have fallen short of gold's performance through the years, said John March.  He said gold has multiplied 26 times in value since the U.S. dollar was taken off the gold standard in 1971.  Gold then was selling for $35 an ounce.  The Dow Jones industrial average has multiplied seven times during the same time frame.

Feb. 3, 2009

Pravda -- The prospect of the United States defaulting on its debt is not just likely.  It's inevitable, and imminent.

The regulatory black holes into which sanity and reason disappear on a daily basis are soon to collapse under the mass of their sheer size.
The circle jerk going on among G7 governments has to end – the steady advance of gold, even in the face of a managed price, exposes the real value of the U.S. dollar, as opposed to its apparent value expressed in the dollar index.

Schmidt's Gold Thoughts

Feb. 3, 2009

Last week the U.S. Congress did us all a favor. $Gold rose by about $40 due to their efforts. What did they do? Well, the U.S. Congress voted to risk another depression by including a “Buy American” clause in what is mistakenly referred to as an economic stimulus plan. That clause bars the purchase of imported iron and steel. If the U.S. Senate persists in the “Buy American” requirements, and also bars the purchase of manufactured goods, in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2008 that risk of a depression will rise further. If ultimately signed into law, the Obama Depression looks like a betting man’s risk.

Gold Gains for Third Day in Asia as Dollar Falls After Rate Cut

Oct. 30, 2008

Gold climbed for a third day in Asia as the dollar dropped against the euro, boosting the appeal of the metal as an alternative investment, after the Federal Reserve cut interest rates to match a half-century low.
Bullion also gained after commodity prices yesterday posted the biggest surge in five decades on speculation reduced borrowing costs in the U.S. and China may help spur a recovery in raw material demand.
