WSJ: "Goudmijnen!"
10 december 2012 - 11:35u
Goudliefhebbers roepen het al tijden, beleg in die achterblijvende goudmijnen. Wall Street Journal zegt dat nu ook.
Goud? Misschien is goudmijnen een beter idee dan het goedje zelf. Was getekend, Wall Street Journal. Niks nieuws onder de zon voor goudliefhebbers, maar dat juist deze krant hier uitgebreid aandacht aan besteedt misschien wél:
"Although mining stocks can be more volatile than bullion in the short term, over the medium to long term they could boom if gold—which remains about 10% below its 2011 peak—resumes its bull run. Gold has risen 10% this year, but the Philadelphia Gold & Silver Index, has fallen 8%, on concerns that mining costs and political risks are increasing."
"Over the past five years, while gold has more than doubled to $1,721, the Philadelphia index has fallen 2%. It is near its lowest level versus the gold price since FactSet began tracking the data in 1984. To put it simply: the price of an ounce of gold today would buy more stock in gold-mining companies than at any point in a quarter century."
