Price Drivers

Gold & Silver – There is a major discussion taking place in the gold world about whether the confiscation of gold will take place or not. On the one side, quite correctly, seasoned gold experts are saying there will be no confiscation without compensation and that there is no likelihood of confiscation, because in 1933 it was done to increase the money supply. However, today, we believe it can and will happen  but for another reason. We believe there will be compensation and payment via government securities or cash, at market related rates. The reason for confiscation will be to reinforce confidence to failing currency values.  We have watched confidence in the value of the world’s leading currencies steadily erode over the last seven years and we could well be on the brink of further major falls. To give currencies a semblance of real value, such that will convince banks both commercial and central, there is a need to bring gold back to a pivotal role in the monetary system. With gold soon to be raised to a level I asset on bank balance sheets, the demand for gold from the banking system will be a new demand factor that cannot be satisfied from the international market. To satisfy that demand we believe that confiscation is necessary in a few or more countries.
