SUBSCRIBER QUESTIONS

Q: Why is money moving into gold and not rotating to other sectors?

A: There is some ongoing rotation as noted in the summary, but gold, the metal itself, has been performing well all its own. There are two main reasons working together as we see it. First is the recovering world economy. While uncertainty can lead to gold spikes, a stronger world economy where there is a threat of inflation pushes money into gold as a hedge. From what we see the cycle is much too early in recovery for this to be a significant part of the price rise.

More important we think is the falling dollar. If strong economies were the problem, then why did gold prices fallin the 1990's boom years? That period saw a very strong dollar. That kept gold expensive in terms of foreign currencies. With the dollar in a relatively long decline compared to the lofty heights in the late 1990's and early 2000's, gold has become less expensive in terms of foreign currencies. If there is some concern about the dollar, gold becomes all that more attractive. Thus the rising price in gold. It has spiked recently and will need to test that move. It will be interesting to see how it performs if the dollar continues to regain lost ground, but with the Bush administration letting the dollar slide, it will most likely resume that move. At some point the price rise in gold offsets the strengthening of foregin currencies via the weakening dollar, but then you have that other component, i.e., the haven for wealth given a falling dollar, that drives the price.
