Al > I suppose as long as SA investors know the scoop, the rand dropping is just business as usual.

Even the SA minister of finance said in an interview that it seems SA investors would rather lose their money on the Nasdaq that support local business. That's why he refused to increase the foreign investment allowance for SA citizens.

I have read comment on the "Bank retracts gold price-fixing report" before but, of course, the bottom line is the bottom line "...."Those with a vested interest in containing the price of gold - central banks, bullion banks, heavily hedged gold companies - will not die easily ..."

As we see.

Strikes me the "Amen Corner" which runs the US government is causing the US to loose friends throughout the world. Looks like eventually the only friend the US will have is Israel --- and with a friend like that, does one need enemies?!
