New Rules For Gold? Follow up.....

Here is the latest article. Keep in mind nothing is ever a sure thing and much of the article serves as advertising for this news letter and their products. So I omitted much of the article. You can look it up if you like though. There are other articles on the subject as well if you care to do some DD. I do believe gold will become a TIER I banking asset BUT I honestly do not know when with any certainty. RHR would without a doubt be trading in the TRIPLE DIGITS as hoards of capital would be coming into gold equities. Ivana

The New Rules for Gold?

The End of Cheap Gold is Here

By Briton Ryle
Monday, October 8th, 2012

My jaw hit the floor when one of my colleagues showed me the irrefutable evidence a few months ago.

Quite simply, what he showed me was the biggest, most important story for gold in the last 40 years. It's going to push gold prices significantly higher.

The gist of this story is that everything investors think they know about the value of gold will change on January 1, 2013. Because on that day, gold will finally be rated as a cash equivalent — just like Treasury bonds are now.

January 1. That's just three months from today.

I've waited for the major financial media outlets — CNBC, Bloomberg, The Financial Times,and The Wall Street Journal — to pick this story up. Because when word gets out to the masses, there will be a gold-buying frenzy...

But so far, nothing. Nada. Zip.

Either these media-types are more ignorant than I thought (which would be a significant achievement, at least for CNBC), or they're deliberately burying this life-changing story.

At this point it barely matters. Gold's status is going to change, whether it's reported far and wide or not. The price of gold will go a lot higher in 2013... and beyond. I expect to see $2,400 an ounce by March.

And you, a Wealth Daily reader, are among the few investors in the world who are getting this message in time to make a sizable chunk of change from it...

How High Could Gold Prices Go?

Maybe you've heard of the global banking regulatory group that meets in the small mountain town of Basel, Switzerland, every few years...

This group of bankers is responsible for setting global banking standards. They decide things like which assets qualify as Tier 1 assets, how much loan loss reserves banks need to hold, and how much leverage banks can take on.

Officially known as the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, it's only met three times in the last 20 years. The first meeting was in 1988. The second meeting, Basel II, in 2004, was a disaster.

The Basel banking geniuses allowed mortgage-backed securities to be considered a Tier 1 asset. (A Tier 1 rating means that the asset is considered a cash equivalent.)

Of course, after the housing crash and ensuing Great Recession, we know that mortgage-backed securities are nowhere near as good as cash.

So in 2010, the committee met again to fix their past mistakes. It was at this meeting — known as Basel III — that the biggest news for gold in 40 years emerged: news that could send gold prices to $2,400 an ounce over the next few months.

The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision ruled that gold could be included as a Tier 1 asset.

In other words, Basel III rules make gold just as good as cash or Treasury bonds.

Why is this such critical news for gold? Well, it has to do with how a bank's assets are used to back the loans the bank makes.

Gold's Value to Double Overnight

Before Basel III, banks had to hold around 6% of the value of outstanding loans as collateral for those loans. Most of that 6% was comprised of what's called Tier 1 assets: cash and company stock. (Treasury bonds count as cash.)

After Basel III, banks are required to hold approximately 12% of Tier 1 capital.

But the big news is that gold will now be considered a Tier 1 asset.

Prior to Basel III, a bank could only count 50% of gold's market value as collateral.

As of January 1, 2013, gold's value will double as a banking asset.

Again, I don't why this isn't being reported by the major financial media.

Basel III will fundamentally change the way gold is valued by the financial markets.

Personally, I view the fact that no one is talking about this story as a gift from the market gods.

The new rules for gold isn't conjecture. This isn't a guess as to what the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision might do. I'm not reading the tea leaves for evidence of some global conspiracy.

The European Union will adopt Basel III rules in 2013. So will Russia and Japan. China, India, and even Pakistan are on board. Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, and South Africa, too.

Basel III's new rules for gold are coming... and they're coming in just 55 trading days.

So, Ivana baby, tell us exactly where RHR's gold is, to tradr at triple digits !!

Thanks for the posts Ivana and Tommer.  There is absolutely no reason why RHR should be trading in single digits based on the cash position, shares in MYG & GNM and the Blackwater properties. I had a couple stocks pop on the last run.  This is an severely undervalued play.  I could be on the buy side once again.  GLTA

Cash to shares what is the value?

Hmm.. perhaps, but fundamentally speaking, I believe the price of gold will go up, because the cost of producing it will go up. The continued rise of the price of gold depends heavily upon the outcome of the financial crisis in europe as well. Printing money excessively all but assures much higher prces in gold, but if a deflationary period sets in, as a result of European austerity, then Im not ...more
