Gold Price Per Ounce hits Near Record of $1,150 oz

Today gold prices hit a record high of $1,147.45. This coincides with a weakening of the U.S dollar with the news from the Federal Reserve that interest rates may not rise again until 2012.  Major concerns with a sluggish U.S recovery combined with possible inlation is providing support for gold.

“I think what we’re seeing is gold is surprising most people in the market. It’s rising faster than the dollar is falling, so it’s got its own drivers now,” said Rebecca Patterson, head of global foreign exchange and commodities at J.P. Morgan Private Bank.

An additional factor that helped fuel gold prices today was the news that John Paulson an influential hedge fund manger  is using 250 million of his own capital to launch a new gold fund.

Price of Gold Hits Record High

Today the gold price reached a record high at $1,043.30 an ounce, while the dollar dropped due in part because of a report that the Gulf Arab states were considering abandoning the dollar.

Countries like Russia, Saudi Arabia, Japan, China, and France have been rumored to be in talk, and there’s speculation that they may attempt to replace the U.S currency with a basket of currencies. This rumor has been denied by Saudi and Russian authorities.

If the Dollar continues to decline it could push the price of gold to new highs. Metals like platinum and silver have also seen gains as gold has climbed in value.

Gold Investing

Investing in gold provides great security in turbulent financial environments, especially considering its track record of maintaining long-term value. Often gold is not directly impacted by a countries fluctuating currency and credit risks. For these reasons and more gold is a secure investment that’s been proven reliable for years.

Over the past two hundred years gold has kept pace with inflation. In the last few years an investment in gold has greatly exceeded a similar investment in the S & P index 500 stocks. In fact since 1999, gold has increased in value by more than 200%, while a vast amount of stocks have actually lost value.

An interesting thing to note about gold investing is its ability to move independent of key economic data. Increasing your holding in gold can greatly offset a portfolios overall risk and protect you from stock price fluctuations. Diversification in gold is a great hedge against relying only on traditional financial assets like mutual funds, bonds and stocks.

You can invest in gold in a variety of ways. There’s gold mining equities which are often put together as gold-oriented mutual funds. Gold stocks, futures and mutual funds are another way to increase your holdings. In addition you can also buy physical gold bullion, gold coins, or bars of gold. Overall buying gold is a significantly less volatile way of investing during times of economic uncertainty and can be a great way to add much needed security to your portfolio.

How to Survive the Dollar Collapse

baddollarBook Review – How to Survive the Dollar Collapse

Once the world’s reserve currency, the dollar was at one time the currency that many governments depended on for security. Unfortunately, those days are passing. Due to massive debt load, reckless spending, and huge trade deficits the dollar is entering a period of uncertainty.

One of the main reasons the dollar has maintained it’s value even after worsening trade deficits that add up to trillions, is that countries continued to purchase US treasury bonds. Countries like China lent out trillions in loans so we could continue the process of buying their exports and running up credit.

Recently, China and Brazil have announced their desire to head towards using their own currencies in trade transactions rather than the US dollar.

Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, Brazil’s president and Hu Jintao, China’s president, have discussed the idea of dropping U.S currency at the recent G20 summit in London. Talks surrounded around implementation of a currency swap which will in effect utilize each countries own currency or an alternative international reserve currency.

China’s currency the Renminbi and Brazil’s Real will most likely be used instead of the falling dollar. Widespread use of the Renminbi and the establishment of it as a regional reserve currency will promote China throughout Asia, and increase their political clout.

Where does all of the uncertainty leave the U.S dollar and it’s potential for collapse? During these times of rapid financial upheaval it’s wise to note that gold protects against currency declines, government crisis and credit defaults. an investment in gold ensures you long term security and stability while market indicators show a murky U.S dollar outlook.
