Yet all the miners down? No real agreement in the Trumpo empire yet on debt ceiling, although they will probably fiddle some solution! https://www.bullionvault.com/gold-price-chart.do

Positive Money launched our new research paper �Escaping Growth Dependency�, at an exciting panel event in parliament. Journalists, MPs, economists and activists gathered to hear how reforming the monetary system could reduce debt and dependence on unsustainable growth .http://positivemoney.org/publications/escaping-growth-dependency/

Thank you Sparkle & Fizz, very informative and interesting! What always comes across is the very arrogant attitude towards the rest of the world the US has. The US gets its finances in a mess so it decides to cheat its way out by underhand market manipulation. Yet some still claim Cartel led market manipulation doesn't go on and that it is just a conspiracy theory thought up by cranks! Not so easy these days though with the rise of Chinaa and alternative precious metals exchanges, the instant access to information via the internet and recent events such as the launching of Crypto currencies. That idiot Trump still claiming that the US is propping up the rest of the world and attempting to instigate out of date policies that are more akin to those of the 18th century rather than the present!

May well push up gold price. Trunmp & his greedy republicans have created a mess and they are now trying to blame the Democrats. The greedy stinkers on Wall Street don't care and yet with what the Dow has gone up after Trumps tax cuts Wall Street could pay of a third of the US national debt. There should be some big physical gold purchases coming to underwrite the new crypto currency!

In a letter to two U.S. trade groups, the SEC hinted it would hold off on approving crypto ETFs until all its outstanding concerns were addressed. "Would funds have the information necessary to adequately value cryptocurrencies or cryptocurrency-related products, given their volatility, the fragmentation and general lack of regulation." The message also mentions concerns like illiquidity, custody, arbitrage and manipulation.

Thank You Sparkle & Fizz Very interesting!

A kick in the crutch for the Centamin SP for no good reason, other than they can!

Gold Analysis https://www.bulliondesk.com/ Gold is consolidating after gains stalled at $1,344.65 per oz on Monday January 15. The stochastics have crossed lower while short-term momentum has stalled; the RSI at 62 has eased from an overbought 74 at the start of the week. Gold has filled the outstanding chart price around $1,340-43 per oz from September, which will clear the way for further gains. Support is now seen around $1,322 per oz, where resistance was seen in early January, and the 20 DMA has moved up to $1,312 per oz. Additional support is seen at $1,300 per oz and around $1,285 per oz from the 100, 55 and 40 DMAs. Resistance is seen at the 2017 high at $1,357 per oz ahead of the July-2016 high at $1,375 per oz. Macro drivers Net length among Comex speculators rose for a fourth straight week, increasing 40,020 contracts or 25% because a sizeable 47,733-contract build in gross longs was only partially offset by a 7,713-contract build in fund shorts. ETF holdings have been stable so far in 2018, they total 2,122 tonnes after they increased 174 tonnes in 2017.

Questions, if a coin of gold backed crypto is, let's say, equal to 1oz of gold, surely it's no different to buying actual gold ingots? Add in a yield and we have a complete new gold backed ecosystem!

Crypto currency. No not me Private, although I know the person who is and there are some very big backers behind this launch.

Gold backed Crypto currency imminent! This will be big news and good for gold! Unable to disclose any more details for the time being!

Gold down this morning though after the LBMA fix!

https://www.bullionvault.com/gold-news/gold-bars-comex-011520182 Wholesale gold bar prices measured in Euros briefly touched �1100 before dropping back below last week's close at �1096 per ounce, little changed for 2018 to date. Latest data show hedge funds and other speculative investors raising their bullish betting on Comex gold futures and options contracts yet again last week. Growing their bullish bets by 75% over the last month as a group, the Managed Money category of traders has halved its bearish betting from what was a 5-month high according to data released by US regulator the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Overall that grew the net speculative position of hedge funds and other money managers by 146% between mid-December and last Tuesday, making it one-third larger than the last 10 years' average.

I have considered using IG, as they are well-established and did have a tie up with Saxo Bank, IG also pay you a welcome gift to join them depending on the size of your portfolio. At the present I use First Direct (HSBC) they give excellent service aren't likely to go bust, give good service and also a frequent trader discount, although you can't trade stocks all over the world if that's what you want, but they suit me!

Fair comments Somnamna,

Great program & The Antiques Road Trip! http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/profiles/52XNXll47rPdPX5Q2bXG97W/michael-baggott
