*Thanks for the comments, guys. I'm sorry I really can't disclose my pos more than I'm allowed to.
Anyway, the US national reserve is 78% gold, while China is 0.9% and japan 2%, Indonesia only 3%. So even with the destruction of the dollar value (and the rise of gold price), the US (not the dollar) will still be considered as safe haven. Most european countries also have above 30%. I have a crazy thinking, that whatever any country do, the westerns will always outsmart everyone. If there's a war, though unlikely, all currencies will fall (and all paper assets like stocks, bonds) and the Americans are laughing to us while sitting a big pile of gold bullions. They know that many countries are holding foreign currency (USD) as their reserves, so the US WILL PRINT AS MUCH MONEY AS THEY CAN, that will bring up the inflation, devaluate the USD and pushing the GOLD price up. That way, everyone is INDIRECTLY paying for US debts. Obviously, they are not stupid.* *** The Chinese are trying to diversify their reserve by buying other commodities inc. gold, but I don't think they can catch up and I don't think the US want to sell their gold reserve to anyone as gold is considered as the base of the economy. I also read that historically Islam teaching (sharia) considers gold as the true investment, which amazes me. **Is this correct? * * I won't be so surprised if ppl will start talking about Keynesian Economy and the Bancor anytime soon. lolz..
