Solid Majority See Higher Gold Prices Next Week – Survey Participants
After a few weeks of split views, survey participants in the weekly Kitco News Gold Survey have turned decidedly bullish in their views of gold prices for next week.In the Kitco News Gold Survey, out of 33 participants, 26 responded this week. Of those 26 participants, 21 see prices up, while two see prices down, and three are neutral or see prices moving sideways. Market participants include bullion dealers, investment banks, futures traders, money managers and technical-chart analysts.
Gold’s move back over $1,700 following the re-election of U.S. President Barack Obama has many survey participants seeing higher gold prices. They also cited another support for gold as the likelihood that Obama will not replace Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke before his term expires in 2014.
“In the name of the printing press, I say bullish! Bullish!! BULLISH!!! The price of gold can be viewed like the temperature of a human body, the higher the temperature the more ill the body, the higher the price of gold the more ill the fiscal system,” said Sterling Smith, futures specialist at the commodity research division of Citibank Institutional Client Group.
Several said gold’s bounce off support around the $1,670 area could also mean further gains for the metal.
But not everyone sees it that way. Those who see weaker prices said the rebound from last week’s lows happened too quickly. “The current rally has gone to fast without building a higher base to work from. I look for 1752 to be a resistance point and 1715 to be a support zone,” said Ira Epstein, director of the Ira Epstein division of The Linn Group.
Those who are neutral on market direction said there’s little impetus to push gold out of its current range of $1,700 to $1,750.

Selamatkah Membeli Emas di Public Gold?
Soalan ini yang acapkali di utarakan kepada saya setiap kali bertemu dan berkongsi idea berkaitan simpanan emas kepada sahabat-sahabat lama baru. Anda LIHAT, BACA, FIKIR, PILIH DAN BERTINDAK.. A picture worth a 1k words.. Keratan Akhbar Harian Metro 22 Oktober 2009 Anda juga pastinya pernah membaca/mendengar tentang pelabur tertipu disebabkan skim cepat kaya yang melibatkan syarikat menjual jongkong emas.

Bloomberg - 30 April 2013 - Gold Rush From Dubai to Turkey Saps Supply as Premiums Jump
Surging demand for gold from Dubai to Istanbul has pushed physical premiums in the region to levels not seen in years as the biggest price slump in three decades lures consumers, according to MKS (Switzerland) SA. Premiums paid by wholesalers and bulk buyers in Dubai to secure a 1 kilogram bar of bullion are being quoted between $6 an ounce and $9 an ounce over the London cash price, said Frederic Panizzutti, global head of marketing and sales at the Swiss-based bullion refiner. That compares with about 50 cents before the rout, Panizzutti, also chief executive officer of MKS Precious Metals DMCC, said in an interview from Dubai. Gold fell to the lowest in more than two years this month on speculation that the global economy is recovering, unleashing a purchasing frenzy among coin and jewelry buyers from China to the U.S. Consumer demand for jewelry, bars and coins in Turkey and the Middle East represented about 9.4 percent of the global total last year, according to the World Gold...
