I posted here, because you guys may buy gold instead of stocks. I di dnot
expect a discussion about industrial trends.
Now that you are talking about it, however, I will talk briefly. India
boasts of "demographic dividend" a term that floats around frequently this
year. Both India and many in the West think India will overtake China in GDP
growth rate, starting somewhere around 2013 or 2015 (depending on who say
it)--mainly SIMPLY because India will have people of working age more than
India after that years. Economist magazine a month ago had a special issue
comparing India and China. I do not know if it is true, because I do not
like predictions, which can go wrong easily.

Indians not celebrating price of gold during Diwali
Jewelers say they're selling fewer items for annual festival
By KATE SHELLNUTT
HOUSTON CHRONICLE
Nov. 5, 2010, 5:44AM
Record-high gold prices have hurt business for local Indian jewelers during
Diwali, the popular Hindu festival of lights and the start of a new fiscal
year.
For the holiday, Hindus make special offerings to Lakshmi, the goddess of
prosperity and wealth. The five-day festival began Wednesday with Dhanteras,
when devotees may perform rituals at home over newly purchased gold jewelry
or coins.
"It's a special day," said Sushma Pallod, a local Hindu leader. "It's an
auspicious time to buy gold."
Jewelry store owners in the Harwin-Hillcroft shopping area anxiously watched
gold prices hit one record high after another. On Thursday, gold prices hit
a new high of $1,383.10 per ounce following the announcement of a new
Federal Reserve stimulus.
The $600 billion Fed program further raised concerns over inflation and a
weakening dollar, turning investors to commodities like gold.
For consumers, this ongoing gold rally has meant prices during the past two
years have nearly doubled for their intricately designed, handmade necklaces
, earrings, rings and cufflinks.
Indian jewelry already costs more than Western styles since it's made from
22-karat gold, which has higher gold content than 14-karat or 18-karat
pieces.
Shoppers are spending $50 to $15,000 on jewelry for the holiday, shopkeepers
said. This year, jewelers are raising their prices, but buyers aren't
raising their budgets.
"If they say they are only going to spend $1,000, they are only going to
spend $1,000," said Gobind Kamnani, owner of India Jewelers.
Jewelers take notice
At nearby Karat 22, they've already seen dramatic drops in sales.
"Even though the same number of people come into the store, the volume is
less than half," said Aku Patel, who co-owns the store with his wife, Meena.
These local jewelers display a range of styles, from larger, traditional
pieces to more delicate, diamond-filled contemporary designs. The showrooms
smell a little like incense and include statues of Hindu deities, including
Lakshmi, the multi-armed goddess often depicted distributing golden coins,
and Ganesha, the elephant-headed god called upon to bring success and luck.
During Diwali, devotees will perform — at home and in temples — special
pujas, or rituals, to Lakshmi to secure her blessing. She also represents
light, and the holiday overall honors inner light over darkness and evil.
"It's a time of festivities, it's a time of puja and thanksgiving," said
Viral Desai, of the BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, a Hindu temple in
Stafford. "It's basically thanking God for all the wealth you have been
given and making sure it's clean, that it has been acquired ethically."
Some Hindu business owners will bring their financial records - books, CDs
and flash drives - to the temple tonight to be blessed for the new year, as
a part of larger communitywide celebrations, Desai said.
'Small token' this year
Individual families will perform pujas at home according to their own
traditions. One popular practice is to place gold coins and jewelry before
Lakshmi's altar.
"This year we will buy a small token," Vijay Pallod assured his wife, Sushma.
They haven't purchased gold for Diwali in a few years, since their kids went
off to college.
"That's where all the gold is now," she said.
The tradition of buying gold varies by family and budget, but jewelry is a
typical Diwali gift for wives, in-laws and daughters. India is the world's
largest consumer of gold, and last year, 56 metric tons of the metal were
purchased during the week of Diwali alone.
Price mirrors inflation
In the U.S., first- and second-generation Indian-Americans continue to value
gold jewelry.
From a financial perspective, gold's value is recognized worldwide, so it
makes sense that this commodity has maintained its worth over time,
according to Rick Kaplan, principal and chief investment officer of Legacy
Asset Management in Houston.
It's an especially popular investment for people worried about the state of
the U.S. economy and the dollar.
"As inflation starts picking up, gold should continue to go higher," Kaplan
said. "I am not sure how much inflation is going to go up, but as long as it
does, gold is going to get higher."

GOLD, RISING
When the price of gold is up, so is the price of gold jewelry - at Diwali or
any other time. Here's what an ounce of gold cost on Diwali for the past
several years:
2010: $1,337.60
2009: $1053.50
2008: $712.50
2007: $737
2006: $597.25
2005: $473.20

Gold is money, damn it!!!
Fiat currency is bullshit. The only way to make them a legitimate tender
is to back them up with gold, which is why China has not only shut down
gold export but also been accumulating gold for several years in a row.
Go learn some monetary system 101 please. Heck, it's not even 101. It's
monetary system for dummies.

Gold meets the necessary elements of money: Durable, divisibility, value
in itself, consistence and unable to be printed out of thin air.
Gold has been money for thousands years while every paper currency comes,
gets abused by politicians and eventually collapses, and the fate of US$
is no different. Capisce?

I do not want to get involved in this fight. But you have a point. From Paul
Krugman to Financial Times, all have recently said gold standard can not
possibly return, if not because no nation has enough gold to back it (
standard) up--trade volumes have dramatically increased since dissolution of
Brenton Woods in early 1970s.
There is CERTAIN speculation that gold price is in a bubble NOW. But who
knows, economists are never good at prediction.

I find it incredibly stupid that China is still exporting silver at all.
We should have cut it off long time ago like what we are doing with gold.
Silver is too strategically important to exchange for some junk Dollars.

看看银本位金本位的结果吧,欧洲被中国不说掏空也掏了好多,搞到最后靠打仗抢回来
。二战后美国被德国日本也是迅速掏空。现在这样的全球贸易环境下,如果还是金本位
制度,中国现在会这么软吗?
金子是挖出来要么屯着要么做首饰镶牙,银子用到工业中去,哪个回收成本底很明显吧
。哪国政府要真不行了,金子全部充公不错吧。
金融骗子就是靠大众思维惯性洗脑赚钱。
