LONDON (Reuters) - Oil prices fell on Thursday following surprise travel restrictions imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump in an attempt to halt the spread of coronavirus after the World Health Organization described the outbreak as a pandemic.
The slump in oil is being compounded by the threat of a flood of cheap supply after Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates said they would raise output in a standoff with Russia.
lol. gooshem is right ... market like shit who will go buy gold in retail shop... unless those who marry soon. you should trade the gold price instead ....
Guys, i unload when da last surge, i thought it is Cheap below 40cent. But Look around, thr alot other share Like this. Hopefully not much share from KLSE become 仙股。
Gold price was USD730 per ounce in OCT2008 when the financial crisis occurred, world wide goverments or central banks keep on printing money to save economy, gold price was increased to USD1800. History repeat, due to covid-19 world wide crisis, almost all country economies shut down, world wide goverments or central banks keep on printing money(or issue government bond) and almost with zero interest rate. Many experts predict gold price will be increased to around USD3000 per ounce.
Gold price increases and holds at least USD1700 per ounce. One more, Malaysia Ringgit, RM is weak against USD dollar. This means 2 ways increase for gold in Malaysia. World wide countries and governments still pledge for additional printing money/ government bonds to ease the covid-19 induced economy crisis. Physical gold can't be printed. Therefore, gold can maintain its value.
Have been holding PohKong ever since. I would say I agree with @SuperPanda, Tomei has higher uptrend, but lower volume, so abit harder to sell off; Pohkong has lower uptrend, but higher volume, easier to sell.
Personally I prefer Pohkong, although I was holding Tomei and Pohkong between these, but I sold off Tomei cuz I felt that its abit harder for me to convert my paper profit to actual profit.
USD TO MYR: 1 US DOLLAR = RM4.33. RM is not up against Dollar, in other words, USD is slightly firm against RM now. Due to over USD printing by US federal reserve, gold up significant against USD because gold can't be printed. World wide governments, investment firms and rich people recognize Gold can hedge against all types of crises and inflation.
Now, the more USD(even euro, Japanese yen, renminbi and etc) printing/government bonds the more the gold price can increase. As a matter of fact, US federal reserve can pay back all its debt by printing money and just pay it as long as US owe others in USD.
GOLD power is crazy!!!. 1 ounce of gold can go up to USD3000 in 1 year if crises remain
@BursaFollower, I think they are hedging on these few points below, but feel free to comment and let me know what you think. Perhaps we can discuss more points to learn.
1. The economy / market has not really seen the true bottom yet, now is just the euphoria of all the QE's and liquid injection done by the government.
2. Gold will only head upwards when compared to last 5 years graph. In any circumstances, gold gains, USD weakens, good for gold.
3. Once the dust of the Covid19 settles and market turns into recession, gold will be the focus point cuz banks / companies start to hold gold bullion, which is one of PohKong's trades.
4. PohKong technically can't do physical store sales, but right now they can focus on lower cost products to be sold online.
I get that younger people tend to ignore gold at the moment, but they could be gravely wrong. Like it or not gold still exists in physical form, and it has been the benchmark for currencies since hundred of years ago. But again, times change, greed does not.
Gold fell as much as 2% on Friday after President Donald Trump’s new guidelines to re-open the U.S. economy and encouraging early data related to a potential COVID-19 treatment drove investors towards riskier assets.
Spot gold was down 1.7% at $1,689.22 an ounce, more than $60 lower than the 7-1/2 peak hit earlier this week on concerns over the worst recession in decades.
To me it sounds like a temporary Euphoria. We all knows that there are no hiding from the fact that the world economy now is hanging on a thread, anytime can go into full blown recession. Covid19 will be the catalyst. While the news are reporting these, I see different thing happen as more and more people are hoarding gold especially rich fellas.
Watch out. The Euphoria of QE and rumors may die down soon as o&g might be the first sector to collapse. And then the chain reaction will begin and perpetuate to other segments.
WTI down to $15, and proceed to $10 all the way. Gold $50k per kg, all the way to $ 1m. FED QE after QE, then proceed to unlimited QE. FED is buying up junk bonds issued by Boeing, Exxon, etc. It is even more toxic than TARP.
It is safe to park your money in Poh Kong. Under MCO, Poh Kong not opening up for business, but gold bullion in its safe/ strongroom appreciates regardless workers stay at home or not. You will see value of its inventory balloon sky high........
