Gold is going much, much higher..... the Chinese are going to be diving into it big time in the near term.

Oldminer, I got lucky, made someone laugh :p

Quantitive easing and gold going up are not good indicators for the dollar....not feeling much confidence in the current world economy as it stands. We kicked the can down the road in 08.....we're now back where we started, except double dips are nasty.

Given the risks, Bitcoin ain't the perfect store of value, but given that I have it and it's easier to come by then gold or silver.....think I'll stay where I am.

Gold 1 July: 1500 today: 1590 = 6%

Silver 1 July: 34 today: 40 = 18%

Gold is overpriced and will be corrected. It's peaking now, you just can't eyeball it.

Gold is going much, much higher..... the Chinese are going to be diving into it big time in the near term.

1. the Chinese would need a serious contraction to retool their economy away from exports.
2. to maintain their trade deficit, the Chinese need to buy dollars ans US Treasuries as a way of weakening their own currency (making their exports cheaper to us).

Gold may or may not go higher, but the Chinese won't be in a position to do much of the buying when their property bubble pops.

Gold is not necessarily going 'much higher', because the current price reflects the fact that people think it will have high future value.

Yea gold's a pain in the ass anyway. Too heavy. And you ever tried sending this stuff to someone on the other side of the globe as payment for goods or services? Shipping costs are outrageous.

I know! I wish there was a currency you could just send over the Internet....oh wait.
