    Gold is indeed auspicious. Big queues to buy some of it in India, this Dhanteras. The Moneychanger in USA is also imploring people to buy gold now, even though he's not too happy about the result from the presidential election.

    But you know, compared to many other investments out there, Gold does look a lot safer.

    So that means gold is not in a bubble, Skol? The price is still up there, it hasn't halved, like the US demand has.

    Gold demand is in death throes worldwide, but punters haven't worked it out yet. Demand's way down in India and 500 gold shops have closed in Saudi Arabia.

    Lots of goldbugs think China is gonna make them rich, but it probably isn't so. From Resource Investor.


    'Unsurprisingly, the industry’s hope is now shifting towards China to fill the demand gap in gold. At the LBMA Conference in Hong Kong it was theorized yesterday that China’s official gold reserve pile can only “go in one direction.” Well, that could be true, but not in the sense that most are expecting. The PBoC has made no secret about the fact that it is comfortable with a gold allocation of from 1.5 to 2 percent of reserves.'
