KITCO international market gold April 30 Comments: the price of gold the first time in three days up
Wednesday gold the first time in three days was up, although the increase is not, but the basic steps
Ford VCM |bmw gt1| to follow the dollar and crude oil. Pm, New York, spot gold is still in the green region, rose 5.00 U.S. dollars at 898.50 U.S. dollars / oz. Near 900 U.S. dollars is still a major psychological barrier, which is really difficult to cross-price 920 U.S. dollars.

Price to 920 U.S. dollars across the target may be a bit difficult, because India is not in a hurry to buy, even though the jewelry Mother's Day just around the corner to buy the peak, but is expected to be this year's sales by nearly 20%. Sorry, Mom, this year you can only buy a chocolate and flowers? But we still love you the same.

Although the Federal Reserve speech in the days immediately before the day of return, but in China the purchase of gold after the news spread, gold continues to structural problems. CBGA (CBGA) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) fears continue to undermine the feelings of speculative buyers, no gold has recently risen rapidly 950 U.S. dollars or 920 U.S. dollars news.

Mohr Scotiabank economists think that when the gold price this year is still quite high, investors may be interested in the stock gradually shift (also including the mining stocks?) And then turned up the next few years of industrial goods (copper?). They are willing to hold one of the long-term stock is Barrick Gold Corporation (Barrick) stock. Reuters reported this:

"Due to the decline in copper prices and rising costs, Barrick Gold Corporation's first quarter profit fell 28 percent, but company president said Wednesday the production line in the new development should help reduce costs and maximize profits in the future.

As a result of lower ore grades, the world's top gold producers Barrick 1 ounces of gold production costs 395 U.S. dollars from a year ago up to the first quarter of this year, 484 U.S. dollars. The company said they faced obstacles to impede them from the drop in crude oil prices and rising U.S. dollar to gain the full benefits.

However, for new development also indicates that the company will lower the cost of mining, especially in the border of Argentina and intellectual Pascual - Lama gold project in the project --- one ounces of gold production costs less than one hundred U.S. dollars. "

In addition there is news of the United States. Barney Frank said he would support the U.S. Congress authorized the sale of IMF gold, but the gold from the premise that the proceeds from the sale Fake Watches|Watch Brand|Designer WatchCool Watches|Buy Watch|Copy Watches|Sport Watches|Wrist Watches|
of four billion U.S. dollars set aside to lend in poor countries. Good posture, Frank President, but the needs of poor countries may be more than four billion U.S. dollars in this, ah, and do not want to in this way ... the borrower access to funds.

There is no doubt that the U.S. legislature for the IMF sell 403 tons of gold give the green light. The real problem is still aware of the current global economic situation and rapid poverty reduction in the threshold of the future, IMF treasury in addition to more than 3.2 thousand tons of gold, the number of tons of gold will be sold. According to IMF and World Bank estimates that 1 billion people will face serious problems.

Silver prices rose 28 cents, back to 12.77 U.S. dollars / ounce, while platinum rose little rose 4 U.S. dollars, at 1095 U.S. dollars / oz. Palladium up 5 U.S. dollars, reported that 219 U.S. dollars / oz. Palladium rising sense that Fiat and Chrysler are combined to help push the message. Despite the almost certain Chrysler will soon apply for the United States Bankruptcy Code Chapter 11 filed for bankruptcy protection. This is not liquidation, but to seize the chance of survival.

Dollar index fell today, but even more clear that the U.S. economy from the bottom quarter of the preceding bounce bottom. To be sure, GDP6.1% shrinkage of more than economists forecast unpredictable. This is almost the fourth quarter of last year to shrink 6.3 percent for the game. Considered together with the two back-to-back half a century of the quarterly data is the most significant shrinkage. It is because of inflation?

It should be noted that the Federal Reserve believe that the storm has passed, the economic tide of the cold wave is about to recede. The other hand, it is obvious that U.S. consumers responded to the feelings of the end of the world vanish, with the confidence and spending tend to experience the reverse, they began singing "the economy will shrink by step point" of the tunes.

On the banks, the central vortex of the deep crisis in the United States Governor of the Bank of Ken Lewis may be in the company's shareholders meeting this morning to submit his resignation letter. Former Merrill Lynch Chief Executive John Thain said Bank of America lost their huge bonuses and fabricated lies, and Bank of America purchased in the depths of the economic crisis after the company, led him to resign in January.

Stress tests in the banking front, there is more news. For example, 1 / 3 of the bodies tested may need additional capital. Citigroup and Bank of America continue to have problems doing the list of funds, but we will wait until May 4 to take a look at these "test" of who the key players in the end, as well as key issues. We have to remember that these cases were included in disguised unemployment, which has not been mentioned in publications.

We are just talking about the banking problems, the following let us look at another recent jewelry in a variety of metals are widely spread in the thing: "a large number of" printing money is there followed the great catalyst for inflation .

If China again should the Olympics to show the world what

Now on this topic may be somewhat premature, the Olympic Games has just opened, we are in the gold medal Xing Fendian on. China currently has no city-to-one to the contractor expressed interest in the Olympic Games. After all, this is a very huge project, take a long time to force savings.

But this is not an impossible situation, in the history of the United States held a total of four Olympic Games, from 1984 to 1996 Los Angeles Olympic Games in Atlanta Olympics, only the middle between the 12, 2012, London will usher in its history The third Olympic Games in Paris has held two Olympic Games, the desire to do next is still very strong. If a country has a world-class city recognized, and its national strength permitting, on many occasions to host the Olympic Games in fact quite normal, not to mention, the Office of the Olympic Games is now a matter of making money. China is now the nation, I believe the front for too long, will once again came to the Olympics.

I want to say is, if the Olympics come China, should we show the world what » Especially in the opening ceremony.

This time the opening ceremony, the traditional Chinese culture, the performance of the majority, for the first time usher in the Olympic Games in China, this fair and reasonable.

The beginning of preparations for the Olympics, it has proposed a "People's Olympics" slogan. "People's Olympics" are the essence of human communication exchange, the initial stage of China's natural to show the world 5,000 years of civilization. A hundred years ago, China on the world stage quiet for too long, so China has the world on some strange, now have the appearance of opportunity, of course, be a self-re-introduced, Fanchu the baby home, tell the world who we are.

Another reason is that China, this session of the Olympic Games represents the feelings of many, a country with an ancient civilization to regain self-confidence and dignity, and will emphasize the glorious past.

Thus, the opening ceremony were handed over to the best at Bawan, "Chinese elements," Zhang Yimou and Zhang Yimou are successfully completed his mission, not only far beyond the Qipao and red lanterns limitations, beyond everyone's expectations. In the high-tech packaging, the traditional Chinese culture, the many symbols are interpreted in the magnificent, 29 footprints of fireworks is to the whole city into a huge arena. I was also worried that will see a strong flavor of the Loess Shaanxi Opera, the result is a pleasant surprise to see a magnificent romantic epic. Thank Zhang Yimou, the Chinese he had a good appearance.

But my question here also, if the Olympics, we can come up with some new things to look at the world » The opening ceremony of the "Chinese elements" will be only four major inventions, Beijing opera, puppetry? Mention »

The display of traditional culture or少不了sure, it is the practice of previous Olympic Games. However, China has completed its first appearance after the display of modern China should perhaps be put on a more important position.

China's development is so rapid that time the "Chinese elements" should have new meaning, better reflect the cultural symbols of China today, otherwise, Lao Shina family things others do not see the right. Moreover, the world, we have come, is no longer a mysterious stranger, for the Olympic Games will definitely be a change in mentality, the Olympic Games will return to a sports event, not with so many non - Physical factors.

I guess that time the opening ceremony might be more modern, more international, more close to the Olympic spirit itself.

Zhang Yimou has completed his historic mission. If when the Olympic Games come to China again, we expect to have a new director, with confidence and show the new China.
