Buying gold as a world currency

Gold has been expanding worth the past 5 years, and accomplished a phenomenal gains of 155% since 9/11 and is anticipated to raise 30-35% in the next 12 months. Truly, gold has been a standard of steadiness. Recognized as a global currency, gold is the only asset that is both fluid and substantial at the identical time and every financial consultant will notify you to have gold as part of your portfolio. The inquiry is, what type of gold? Should you purchase gold bullion bar or gold bullion coin?

First thing you need to understand is the distinction between buying actual gold and gold supplies. When buying gold stocks, you are buying supplies of excavation companies, not the gold itself. As such, these supplies are propelled by supply market more than the gold worth itself. In detail, as gold tends to proceed the converse main heading of supply prices, you may find yourself mislaying cash on gold stocks even if the price of gold increases.

The most gladly available gold for buying and trading is most decisively jewelry. Still, coins and gold bars make for a better buying into as jewelry often comprises additional additives and is prone to impairment. On top of that, the general worth furthermore takes into account personal components, such as method, trends etc. In most situations, the resale value of gold jewelry will not ever be as high as the buy cost, making jewelry a pleasant gift, but not a good buying into scheme.

The most readily available gold for buying and selling is most decisively jewelry. Still, coins and gold bars make for a better investment as jewelry often comprises additional additives and is prone to impairment.

If buying gold for collection or easily for individual pleasure, coins are the natural way to go. Even coins that do not specify as bullion will give you a certain collectible worth, endowing you to sell the coin to one of the collectors round the world. Furthermore, the value normally increases with the time, so it is a protected investment too.

Gold investors normally try to buy gold bars rather than coins. In numerous cases, gold bar provides for a better investment worth than coins, however there are exclusions that you need to take into account. The most significant facet when buying gold bars is to be certain you can deal it when required. different coins, which can be sold on coin auctions, or even on eBay, trading gold bars is much larger dispute. The main cause for this is that the gold in gold bars does not carry a governmental promise of value and quantity, certain thing that gold bullion have. It is also simpler to tamper with the gold in the bar, which is particularly factual with "hidden" (or unmarked) bars.

Still, if you know a reputable dealer mesh that can appraise the bar, buying gold bar is an very good investment that is almost guaranteed to stay very steady all through the years to arrive. However, for less experienced shareholder, or for shareholder who likes to benefit both from charges of gold as well as collectible value (that can in detail counteract the distinction in gold prices, should they fall), coins are the better option.

Gold price effect to small trader in 2013

Gold molten crisis, gold price effect  raving badly

Was gold an antic now? Why ? Reducing it value more than 25% in 6 months periods in 2013 cannot be considered as a safe asset. Now gold investment will become to be the threatening risk and forced call margin to favor friends. Will this bearish trend to continue or will it a breakout ? What can small gold trader like me survive this hiccup ? or just absorb the loss and carry on our business as usual? What becomes of us, a mockery in US deficit economic slump or a farce in gold market itself. We are losing trust and trade as we speak right now.

 What can you do as small trader to respond gold price effect

What is your proper respond to gold price level right now? What a proper word to answer to it market condition ? are you feel cheated ? are you feeling angry ? or you just think a way to get rid of the gold stock you hold at any given price? Who the economics ml

Their answer is yes to all the above, and the media was a responsible moron who predicts gold price to go higher in 2013 . As there news become cold, public become to forget the marketing drive that increases the gold price back on 2010 to 2012.

Nothing can be certain in the economic world and driving force behind stocks and index price worldwide. Proprietor and speculator depend on sets of data, charts, news and market sentiments to predict future market move. The gold price considered as safe heaven or harbor for reinvestment until following stocks or index prices to be determined.

However, that all gone now in 2013 . Investors were losing confident in gold. Weaker gold price kept hammering the gold chart and making peoples kept losing money. This bearish move will not stop until a major move on dollar appreciation and QE size is reducing by Federal bank.

How small traders like me to survive this?  How to reinvent gold?

One of the solutions is to keep the current gold stocks and increase new purchases. Why ? it will reduce the bearish trend and give a current gold a flick of hope to new proper price.

The other way is to reinvent gold from scratch. What is gold as we commonly know? A coin, gold bullion, and jewelry. We can reinvest gold into other products that have a common use but glitter with a golden touch.

One of it is a name card, a gift card, or a golden rose. These were several gold artifacts that found in productions that can be an example to increase gold usage drive up gold price.

Finally. What will happen when gold price melted to lower price? We were just keeping reinvent gold and reinvest it again. More importantly, we keep our gold sustain for golden future generations.

Gold price fear near three-year lows of $1,312 an ounce

On Thursday , gold price trend move to near 3 years low at USD 1,312 an ounce . Fundamental effect from surge of US dollars directly to all major commodity prices. The dollar has pushed higher as the prospect of new Fed money has diminished in light of Bernanke's statement. The euro was down a further 0.5 per cent at $1.3217 Thursday while the dollar rose 1.3 per cent to 97.90 yen. The benchmark New York oil price was down $2 at $96.48 a barrel, while the gold price slid 4.6 per cent t, or a little over $61 to near three-year lows of $1,312 an ounce.

There is a risk we could see an even bigger sell-off if the $1,300 level is breached significantly, the time line for the Fed exit strategy is very much data dependent and based on a whole host of economic indicators between now and next summer, gold prices have slid sharply as the dollar goes sharply bid across the board.


For five years, the Fed has been pursuing an aggressive monetary policy to shore up the U.S. economy, which was battered by the financial crisis. Now that the U.S. economy has shown signs of improvement.

The dollar surge also effect negatively on stocks market all over the world. Stock market in Asia down, for Tokyo's Nikkei 225 down 1.7 per cent lower at 13,014.58 while Hong Kong's Hang Seng index tumbled 2.9 per cent to 20,382.87.  In Europe, the FTSE 100 index of leading British shares was down 2.2 per cent at 6,209 while Germany's DAX fell 2.3 per cent to 8,007. The CAC-40 in France was 2.2 per cent lower at 3,756

Using gold as safe heaven is at jeopardy right now . Gold price was reduce about 18.2 % from June 2012 to USD 1571 to USD 1285 per ounce today , Friday 21 , June 2013 . At this alarming rate , commercial gold investors were panicking. It will take a few months or a year to recover from this event . In April 2013 , gold trader surprise by sudden hiccup when gold price trend to below USD 1500 and now after 3 months , the price reduce to about USD 1300 per ounce .

Will gold losing it attractiveness for investor safe heaven ? Yes , it about time to be caution about gold . Losing 20% value of a year investment is too risky for safe heaven investment .

Will gold losing it attraction for retail buyer ? No . It will not . Lower gold price is major key for small stockist and trader . It is time to buy gold . One good thing about trading real physical gold is , there were alway buyer or seller in whatever trend the gold spot market go for direction.


In Malaysia, fear of losing for gold value already wide spread in investor forum and social chat board. Small trader , gold stockist and sell agent were busying to explain for what happening right now and support for gold long term investment.

Will gold price prevail itself as safe heaven ? Personally , i do think gold price will recover . What gold market need is time . But , investors will not wait another few years to just recover 20% loss . If aggressive action taken , many more investor will cut the loss and move on to other opportunity.


These event might be worrisome. It could trigger for worst closing price and bring gold price to lower pricing zone .

From other view , technically gold price chart was in constant bull market for years . With double top in yearly chart , it about time for bear market and correction.

Finally , can gold price reach USD 2000 per ounce as per hot investment news in 2012 ? I believe , it could be happening event right now. If gold loss it value USD 200 per ounce over slightly 2 months , it could increase in same manner .

Gold is gold for whatever flat money give it value. In old barter way, 1 gold tael is 1 teal tea leaf or a bucket of grain or 10 long yard of cotton.
