Was listening to the radio and noticed that the advertising for the various consumer gold retail stores was getting a very definite shrill note.
Came home and looked at gold spot at Kitco and saw that it was down about $200 from a few months ago -- $1.6K instead of $1.8K
No wonder. Also, I am amazed that there are people who would buy gold as an investment from houses that sell it as such -- it is a metal, a commodity and your best bet is to purchase it from a reliable spot metal vendor. Kitco is my choice but there are others.
