The reasons are endless to diversify out of fiat currency. Money printing, rising prices, increasing energy costs, and more. Listen to insights from a precious metals industry veteran.
“Silver did not fare quite as well [as gold], as it only went up 3% for the first quarter, but once again, if you multiply that by four, that’s going to be a double digit year.”
Gold still looks solid on technical charts. It is up 9% for the year even after the 6% pull back of the last few days. Gold is having a great first quarter.
I believe there will be a time in the near future, definitely during Obama’s tenure, that you won’t even be able to get physical gold and silver without paying very large premiums.
If you look at the price of gold in all different currencies, the U.S. Dollar is at the bottom of the list when you look at performance. So, with the launch of these new ETF’s, we think this is a very bullish event for gold.
