Can't believe the hammering the AUD is getting at the moment. Its mostly due to the flight to the USD. Its like a game of which sinking fiat currency do you choose! I'm happy as I've got a heap of US cash after a recent trip that I refused to change for 95 cents to our dollar. 85 cents I can...

I agree that the gold side of the equation will rocket, but it should only go up to a fairer value in relation to fiat currency. For it to go up so high as to make the DOW side of the ratio very undervalued I just can't see it. Trouble with all the predictions of $2000, $5000 gold or...

Gold.ax, gold coins and some gold mining, all about even splits. Gold has become what cash was to me about 5 years ago. I don't see the point in holding cash when the Reserve bank has publicly stated it plans to make everyones cash holdings worth around 90 cents in the dollar in the next few...
