Reasons To Invest In
Gold? |
■ The US dollar is
getting weaker over the long-term, this sparks interest in gold as
an alternate currency and investment "safe-haven".
■ There is over One
Trillion dollars ($1,000,000,000,000) of U.S. debt owned by
foreigners which could be repatriated under certain conditions. This
could cause a major decline in the value of the dollar and a soaring
gold price.
■Gold is more than just another
commodity, it’s a currency. It is THE currency that evolved in the
marketplace over the last 5,000 years.
■ Gold and silver are the only
currencies not created and controlled by governments. All of today’s
other currencies (dollars, euros, yen, pounds, reminisce, rupees,
etc) are ‘fiat’ currencies, which means they do not represent
anything tangible but are only worth something due to government
decree (namely legal tender laws).
■ Governments and central banks have
been suppressing the price of gold since 1995 by lending and selling
their gold. They won’t be able to keep it up forever. Then the price
of gold and silver will soar.
■ The pressures of enormous debts
will increasingly tempt the
United States
to inflate the US dollar so much that it will become almost
worthless, in order that the debts can be easily repaid in
near-worthless dollars. Gold will gain as the falling US dollar
destroys trust in fiat currencies.
■The economy and stock
markets will see further huge declines!:
Gold prices often increase
after a stock market crash. That's because investors will flee to
safety, and gold has often been seen as a safe investment.
