On gold: The 1999 agreement between central banks that limits the gold sold, expires in 2004. The Bundesbank plans to slowly sells if the prices go up. That because in 2004 Hans Eichel, German finance minister wants to balance the budget.

The 1999 agreement signed in Washington, soon after gold reserves had dropped by 30% in three years, limits the sale of gold by Euro Central banks to 400 tons and the total sales during the period covered by the agreement should not exceed 2.000 tons.

Ernst Welteke, Bundesbank president, says the agreement is "delicate" because it lacks coordination that could lead to lower prices.
