Hi Mark....... <<In my estimate, gold rising strongly would initially hurt the Dollar, making it weaker vis-a-vis the Yen & Euro.>>
I have heard this comment used many times and it just does not sound correct to me. I don't think a rise in the price of gold will hurt or cause the dollar to lose value I think a rise in the POG just indicates
that the dollar has lost value and the world is just looking for a place to store their value.
I am starting to wonder why CBs should think that gold is a threat to
their currencies. It is said that the USA holds something like 8000 tons of gold why should they fear gold at 1000$/oz. wouldn't it just
add to the value of their currency. ?
The new EURO started out with 15 % gold backing it appears to me that they have no fear of gold price.
Take care
Lorne
