Dont know if this had been posted before: In its annual report, the Bank of France said the main holders of gold had not changed their view on the need for gold to make up a part of central bank reserves as a guarantee in the international financial system. "Neither the U.S. Federal Reserve, nor the German Bundesbank, nor the Bank of Italy, nor of course the Bank of France plan to sell the precious metal," the bank said. COMEX August gold ended 30 cents an ounce lower at $294.60, above the day's low of $292.50. dailynews.yahoo.com

<<also I think possibly that there is big big money in Germany that might have knowledge about the final resolution of how much gold is going to back euro..just guessing of course..but maybe on the higher range>> I agree. I don't have this weeks Barrons in front of me, but August von Finck, a wealthy German industrialist, has increased his position in Homestake Mining to approximately $200 million, almost double the initial position he accumulated in the first quarter of 1998. He doesn't appear to worried about the short term price of gold.
