hi all,
i'm a noob also when it comes to investing in gold.... just trying to understand here...what possible scenario that can make the gold price go down in a free fall ?

for example...US dollar... if the gov continue to borrow and their debt ceiling explode, then maybe US Gov print more money and cause their value to drop...

in the case of gold...what could possibly happen to cause this?
maybe the one i can think of is people mass selling the gold in panic...this is one potential situation...what else?

thanks for all inputs! need to understand and learn.. smile.gif

Sadly, most of the information about the lelong event artificially disclosed, a bit like close tender.
Even my friend, a bank officer in AgroBank doesn`t know about the lelong organized by his employer brows.gif

Anyone here know where to get 1/10 oz of maple other than UOB and where can I get 2.5g of Pamp Suisse? Just wondering, for gold coins, there's a standard guideline like UOB rates you can follow, how about Pamp bars? Any site that I can follow the rates?

i've never entered agrobank lelong, but bank rakyat one, quite impossible to win lah.
usually they do at the end of the month, around 22nd-ish for bank rakyat. they will put up notice and display the items.

The most simple case is to look at the 1981 gold price peak. Panic sentiment not based upon correct assumptions on general GLOBAL market trends.
Local gold prices according to one's currency is also an indicator to your nation's inflation conditions (or not, I'm actually unclear on this).
The current trend since 2008 or, one could say since 2001, is unlike the 1981 peak as the global economy is now tied to US monetary & fiscal policies that are increasingly unsustainable. The current rise will not stop unless a stabilised world economy reappears. Europe and America in turmoil is not going to send gold to drop overnight.

Unless they suddenly found a big 1 million tonne ore seam in someone's backyard ...



Oh .. but I advise if a mountain of gold appears at the Euphrates, stay clear of it ...

sweat.gif yeah, either the end of the world fighting begins here and/or gold prices worldwide falls (due to sudden glut of above ground gold)?

my two cents opinion

bro - your advice " Better invest on unit trust" is good for almost everyone who wants an easy and assured return

BUT as all of us know - super profits are only enjoyed by those who a little of risk and are optimistic of the future

"also in the long run we're all dead" - John Maynard Keynes - one the most famous economist

so let's make some profit while we can and to those who wants to invest in unit trust - go ahead

so lets hope that the price rises and rises
i bought in at RM 160 on average and the price is today is RM 191 for SriAyu gold bar

so there itself a potential profit of RM 31 and still going up

as only those who have physical gold would enjoy the maximum benefit of the price increase

for example if one had purchased a house in Taman Tun in late 1980 at about RM 80,000
it was almost hulu area those days - outskirts of town
today it is worth almost 1 million
BUT i did not buy that house - i did not have the guts and i was contented in living in a rented house - so more loss


my opinon it is really up to you - i still think it so much better invest in approved unit trust compared to keeping in FD

BUT if you want super profits - then read up and have some guts and you will enjoy super duper profits

once u already buy - do not look at gold prices at least for 6 months and then you will notice the difference

just like we are growing older everyday - in fact in every single minute there are changes in our body - BUT we cannot see

so for those who want super profits - gold is the way of the future and the REAL MONEY

GOLD is GOD's money will never lose - ONLY PROFITt

as only those who have physical gold would enjoy the maximum benefit of the price increase

I think you shouldn’t cash іt іn unlеsѕ уоu absolutely nеed it. That's the main reason for saving in gold; hedge against inflation, currency devaluation, etc etc etc - view the presentation -- Why Invest in Gold -- http://bit.ly/kSi6I0

But if you are speculating, that's another story.
Learn more, read -- The Neverending Story of a “Gold Bubble” -- http://wp.me/p1nT6G-lz

Hope this helps. Cheers!
