Gold Rushed: Investing in Gold

That’s right, we’re late on the reporting but gold is over $1000 US dollars for an ounce. Yikes.  Is it too much?  No one really knows, but all those skeptics that spoke out as it traveled down below $900 after coming near these recent highs a while back are eating their words….

Or are they?

The Washington Post has a great article on why some investors are fearing the sudden rise in gold, and also why some investors think $1000 is just the beginning. Inflation on the rise, the dollar weakening and a market that isn’t quite sure why it’s almost back at a DOW of 10,000. That’s what has investors scratching their heads and disagreeing.

One things for certain, gold and ETFs like GLD could still be good buys if we continue to see the fed printing money, and worldwide banks scooping up gold as a hedge to the weakening dollar.
