Buying political favour?

Chris CT had a thread on it a few weeks ago http://www.greenenergyinvestors.com/index....&hl=panning

Going mainstream. They were discussing gold as an investment on "Mock the Week" last night. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00mv...s_7_Episode_11/

Apparently ETFs are the only sensible way to play it, but supply and demand factors are going to push the price down anyway.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8255938.stm The last of Britain's gold?

USDX just went vertical according to goldseek???

Apparently not.

I might be interested, depending on how many, and how far?

This thread's tagline seems rather appropriate at the moment.

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=206...id=a79poDjcDqOA Is it just me, or does this headline make it sound like the gold price has taken a big hit?

Isn't their "property empire" quite concentrated in Ashford and surrounding areas? Isn't giving prior notice of the sale of 700 flats/houses in a fairly small area all at once, gonna hammer the price (especially in a thin market)? Maybe even worse than Gordon's announcement of impending BofE gold sales?

$957 taken out. Dennis Gartman is very impressed atm.

If an investment looks so certain, it seems like shooting fish in a barrel; chances are, you're the fish.

All assets seized amid allegations of money laundering (subsequently emerging that there was no evidence whatsoever)?

If you're still talking GBP then I rather doubt it.

How about this if you want to present the same figures in a more positive light? http://news.goldseek.com/GATA/1250748900.php

With coininvestdirect can you just do a free online bank transfer (if UK based) or do you have to go to the bank and do a £30 chaps transfer?

According to wikipedia: They don't seem to be trying that hard to attract investors whenever I see them quoted.

1. They are stuck between the anvil and the hammer. 2. They haven't the faintest clue how to get out. 3. Even if they did, they don't have the conviction to take the hit squarely and move on. The above applies to all the significant parties equally.

My favourites. Brit's are the best gold coins though, if you're UK based.

Just for fun, the latest from rightmove. I certainly don't agree. With increasing evidence that we've already hit the bottom of the market... ...what’s the forecast for the rest of 2009?

I agree with you. But that wasn't the point (as you're clearly aware). The significance isn't his opinion, simply his mainstream impact.

Is Rich Dad Right About $15,000 Gold? Mania, here we come!

My wife is taking our sons to HK later this year to get their residency rights sorted and ID cards issued.
