Gold exploding upwards again. Here we are in the middle of a healthy gold rally and its Friday!! I hate Fridays!

I am sort of hoping that we will see a massive move in Gold similar to what we have seen in silver this year. Cant quantify it so no charts or anything.........just a pair of crossed fingers!

That explains it then HUI had a good day....up almost 20. About time the miners had a decent run

Hello stranger! Good to see you are still around and still in one piece!

Nice spike up...1441...a new high? Who just bought?

Yep, its the weather again!...

Is a fair value for gold nearly $4,000? Gold is hitting record dollar highs once more but should an ounce really be worth $4,000 - almost three times the $1,400 range it has been trading around? The bold claim has been made by Paul Tustain, the founder of gold investment service BullionVault.com, who reckons the market still ‘significantly undervalues’ the shiny stuff. His view, which is obviously heavily weighted in favour of gold, is that inflation and potential financial risks mean gold has a ‘fair value’of $3,844 an ounce. That’s a mighty big number, considering gold is trading at $1,430 at the time of writing, having hit a record spot closing high of $1434.5 on 2 March. http://blogs.thisismoney.co.uk/2011/03/is-a-fair-value-for-gold-nearly-4000.html

I agree.....Its almost as if we have all become desensitised as to how much 210k really is. Aided by low interest rates, people are just focussed on how much the monthly payment is rather than how big the loan is. It would be interesting to see if the banks try to maintain their margins should the BoE push interest rates up? I dont think they can The point is from that podcast is that the general public are starting to get the message that the housing market is now dead in the water and hopefully we can look forward to more affordable house prices in the coming years. I was talking to a young 20 something friend the other day who cannot afford to buy, and similar to Penny the Junior Doctor, he is angry and frustrated that he has been priced out. What I am trying to get across to him is that if he is patient and rents for a few years more, he will be presented with the buying opportunity of a lifetime in the coming years

Listened to this tonight. Some good anecdotals as to how hard it is to get a mortgage in the current economic climate Well worth a listen.... File on 4. Homes but no loans Homes but no loans. Despite the threat of a new slide in house prices and rising levels of negative equity, the number of property-buyers having their homes repossessed has declined over the past year. But now many economists predict interest rates will rise in the course of 2011, fuelling fears that Britain's housing market could be facing a double dip. With banks chasing profits and affordable mortgages harder to find. Michael Robinson asks what impact the new housing freeze will have on Britain's already battered economy. iPlayer http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00xppmm Podcast/stream http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/radio4...10125-2044a.mp3
