| Metal Detector Spurs Dreams of Gold Finds |
|
Even back in 1980 when gold was over $800 I had the same point of view as I do today. Looking at a double eagle or other gold coin of the United States or anywhere else for that matter is deceptive.

Gold-backed securities Gold is traded in the form of securities on stock exchanges in Australia, France, Hong Kong, Japan, Mexico, Singapore, South Africa, Switzerland, Turkey, the United Kingdom and the United States. By design, these forms of securitised gold investment, all regulated financial products, are generally referred to as Exchange Traded Commodities or Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), and are expected to track the gold price almost perfectly. Unlike derivative products, the securities are 100% backed by physical gold held mainly in allocated form. These securities have had a major impact on the gold market, representing 38% of identifiable investment and 7.5% of total demand in 2007. Financial advisors and other investment professionals can provide further details about these products. |

A wide range of such funds exists and they are domiciled in a number of different countries. These funds are regulated financial products and as such it is not possible here to provide details on any specific funds. |
