RE: GOLD UP AND AWAY! eomIndeed, it is going up today. I heard about Islamic countries adopting gold currency, which is a good news for Gold. Those countries are not very stable and so is their monetary policy.
I think you should watch for any move from the Fed to support the dollar...so far they are not doing anything, they mentionned low rates for the whole 2004 year.
What i am afraid of is that gold stocks don't follow gold price. I was expecting Azure at a much higher price with gold around 420.
