I'm sure this has been asked before, but could anyone recommend a good site for spot gold price quotes. Also, I'ld be interested to know which markets in the world are the main players in setting the price and which are the most important to follow? Thanks, Dan

"Private investment demand for gold bars and bullion coins has more than doubled in 1997, as gold prices have tumbled to their lowest level in 18 years, but the economics of the gold market now suggest higher prices may not be far away,..." biz.yahoo.com Italian hoax Eurostat says examining Italian gold transaction Reuters, Thursday, December 11, 1997 at 08:37 BRUSSELS, Dec 11 (Reuters) - Eurostat, the European Commission's accounting arm, said on Thursday it was studying an internal gold transaction by the Italian government but had reached no conclusions. "We are analysing the dossier and awaiting more details from the Italian government," a spokesman for Luxembourg-based Eurostat told Reuters. He added he could give no details of the transaction and until the last few days only had Italian press reports to go on. According to Italian media, state coffers have been boosted by a Treasury decision to take around 3.7 trillion lire from a one-off gain on an internal gold transaction. Reports say the Italian Exchange Office transferred 540 tonnes of gold from its books onto Bank of Italy accounts. The gold had been handed to the exchange office (UIC) by the central bank in 1976 to secure a German loan. Although the loan was repaid in 1978, the gold remained in the UIC and is now worth some seven trillion lire more than in 1976. The Treasury taxed the one-off gain at the going rate of 53.2 percent. brussels.newsroom@reuters.com)) Copyright 1997, Reuters News Service c 1997 Quote.com, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
