GREEK CRISIS CONTINUES

The metals pulled back today on a round of profit taking, with gold trading down $8 and silver down $.19. The profit taking prompted by a stronger dollar, up 26 basis points. Among the factors influencing the metals is the Greek issue where fresh worries have arisen about the financially strapped country, which pressured demand for most other assets. For the moment, investors in Europe in particular are moving out of euros and into dollars and that has boosted the dollar and put a little pressure on the gold market. Nevertheless, gold continues to hold above that $1,150 support level and as long as it does that it is showing exceptional strength. In fact, gold is strong above $1,000 an ounce. Therefore there is a good deal of cushion here providing comfort to those who are long gold.

There are meetings now going on in Greece with the Euro Zone finance ministers. They are trying to devise a plan to address the Greek debt issues. They will also have to decide how to handle the problems that exist in Portugal, Spain and Italy. Some are beginning to worry that the European union may come apart. George Soros indicated that the euro might be doomed. You may recall that I suggested this a couple of weeks ago. Now economists at Morgan Stanley believe that while the rescue package removes some short-term liquidity risks "long-term solvency risks remain firmly in place". "More broadly, and more worryingly, recent developments significantly raised the (long-term) risk of a euro breakup, in our view." The bottom line is that Morgan Stanley concludes that there is now a very real chance of both the euro and the EU falling apart.

In that environment, I think gold is an excellent buying opportunity. Many other analysts believe the same. Just yesterday, Jeffries and Company indicated they think gold will target $1,300 an ounce this year. Given those factors, you may wish to consider acquiring gold or adding gold to your holdings if it should be appropriate. Barclay's Capital for example said today that gold is consolidating and the charts indicate bullish sentiment increasing.

Goldline's spread, which is the difference between the price we sell our products and the price we buy them back, generally ranges between 5% to 20% on our most common bullion products and 30% to 35% on all other products including our popular European francs, proof coins, silver dollars and half-dollars, and graded coins. The market must go up enough to overcome this spread before an actual profit is achieved.  Precious metals and rare coins can increase or decrease in value.
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Coins are a long-term, three- to five-year, preferably five- to ten-year investment. We believe precious metals are suitable for 5% to 20% of the average investment portfolio though others may recommend a different percentage.
