Randgold also tends to get sold off with the general market, unlike YAU (so far)

[dasv] 08/7/2008 09:00

Yep - Randgold is eminently more tradable, but YAU still makes a sound buy and hold in this climate.

[d s patterson] 07/7/2008 20:53

ranglod much better in that respect - much closer spread

[d s patterson] 07/7/2008 20:50

Gimme a price near the 200 day and it's time again for a long

[d s patterson] 07/7/2008 20:49

Well it's shocking how the hell you're supposed to take a position I do not know. I'd understand 5p either side of the bid but this is ridiculous. I really think a few thousand will move the bid or offer with this one.

How do you buy these in any quantity, only given a quote for 150 online. Is this normal?

[ukgeorge] 07/7/2008 12:56

they are just covering their behids. as it is barely traded in the UK and often jumps on open in US i think the spread is normally reduced when us and can are open after 2:30

[dasv] 07/7/2008 12:51

yeah it's quiet illiquid in UK. Is spread similarly bad in Can?

[d s patterson] 04/7/2008 09:04

still a terrible spread

[yf23_1] 04/7/2008 01:35

hammer bottom on the candles today might prove a support

[d s patterson] 03/7/2008 18:01

spread is terrible

[ukgeorge] 03/7/2008 08:33

the pm still look good and a lower oil price in general means a lower 4/oz mining cost so could be a good thing for gold producers.

[yf23_1] 02/7/2008 22:37

Well, I did warn everyone that the next leg down would be in tandem with the end of the mining shares bubble.
Most of the miners down 4% today, dragging the index down instead of stabilising it.
Oil will collapse at some stage as world demand adjusts to not only wasteful uses but also due to less economic activity.

[d s patterson] 02/7/2008 21:40

Shame really I know people that went pretty big into things like tesco and the miners before all of this.

[ukgeorge] 02/7/2008 17:27

another day of stockmarkets tumbling and gold rising. :)

[fox tail] 30/6/2008 17:07

try some of the US listed miners?

[d s patterson] 30/6/2008 13:33

anyone know of a more liquid lower spread gold co? eventually you get back to mining stocks which is possibly defeating the object of buying into gold stocks to start with

[mad jack mcmad] 30/6/2008 09:15

My only complaint is that it's very gappy.

[ukgeorge] 27/6/2008 19:26

C$16.96 + 1.10 Today 7% up to now £8.41

[leedskier] 27/6/2008 18:56

Good to see my long term investment here coming good again...this could be the promised second break through 1000$...and way beyond...as inflation takes hold.

[d s patterson] 27/6/2008 17:31

I love the way people are talking about gold at $1000 or possibly $1500 if the dollar crashes in my opinion you'll need $3000 - 4000 of them to buy an ounce.

And it will be more like £1000 per ounce, the way I see it when you cut to the absolute basics of investment there's only 3 things you can invest in.

1) paper based shares (dodgy when your currency's wobbling)

2) property (a bit of a money supply play and we've just had 15 years of that one)

3) Gold, silver and oil (great when the 2 above are wobbling)

[ukgeorge] 27/6/2008 17:19

its broken out woop wooop wooop. gold broke out yesterday and yau today they are going to lead us higher love the fact that gold has made such a good move when the stock mkts are down quite a bit this week, it helps to highlight gold to the unaware, and soon they will all being rushing to get a piece of the action.

[d s patterson] 27/6/2008 16:10

yf - what happens if the dollar tanks completely there's only two things in the world that can't be printed, copied or created from nothing. Oil and gold.

It's just my thoughts there hasn't been a serious crash for a very long time could 09 be ther year?
