What are the compelling reasons to own gold in today’s uncertain economic climate?
*Dow Theory Letters, by Richard Russell, June 25, 2009:
“Nations no longer devalue their currencies against gold, they
simply print oceans of their own currencies, and with that paper they
buy dollars, hoping to raise the price of dollars against their own
currencies. The result is a growing sea of fiat junk paper. The greater
the world ocean of fiat paper, the higher gold goes. You see, gold is
the secret, unstated world standard of money. Gold can't be devalued or
multiplied out of thin air. So as the various currencies of the world
decline in relation to each other, gold stands alone. It can't be
cheapened or devalued or bankrupted. While the currencies of the world
decline in purchasing power in relation to each other, they all decline
in purchasing power against gold. In other words, as time passes, it
requires more of each currency to purchase one ounce of gold.
In the meantime, the US continues to spend outrageously, not only
running up debts for the present but also for the children of the
future. The US deficits and national debt will run into the
multi-trillions in coming years.
How will these monster debts ever be paid off? They'll be paid off by
devalued dollars, they'll be paid off by additional borrowing, they'll
be paid off by inflation, they'll be paid off with higher taxes and
probably a VAT tax, they'll be handled by projecting them into the
future for other administrations to struggle with.”
