But the price of gold is now trending back down and you should wait-and-see
before buying a gold coin...as the mint as a chart of pricing the gold coins
releative to the gold price.
Well with the stock market testing new lows and currencies in doubt I don't
know where money coming out of gold is going...
But I previously said that gold was up on a currency panic and that faith in
currencies would return...
Then I said that selling the yen would be the samething as selling gold
since both had become safe havens...
And I said to sell the USD-JPY pair in a leveraged forex account. Well...I
meant sell at something like 89.20 and buy at something like 91.5. But wow
it's now over 97. (Of course Japan does not want the yen to be too strong so
they would have been expected to come out with government spending programs
to try and soften up the yen. And the yen went down so the Japanese stock
market of exporters went up.)

That's a lot of money to pay for a flawed poduct, they should all grade MS70
surely? Billy
Oh...excuse my Forex. To sell the yen you buy the USD-JPY pair ? But at the
current yen level look for it to go the other way now...
