Gold Still On Course for $1,000 An Ounce
by Joe Battaglia
Posted: July 17, 2008
Gold and silver
started lower in reaction to softer oil and a firmer dollar, but quickly turned
around, with gold posting a gain of $3 and silver up $.15 in the first
half-hour of trading. The dollar is
down 2 basis points at 72.05 and oil is down $.28 at $134.33 a barrel. While the Dow Industrials are up 26 points,
there seems to be a lack of follow through in the equity market. Financial stocks are continuing to show
improvement with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac both up in early trading. The euro was softer after the U.S. housing
starts and jobless claims data, which put some pressure on gold. Otherwise, we might have seen gold even
higher this morning. U.S. jobless
claims rose 18,000 indicating unemployment on the rise. Housing starts increased 9.1% versus an
estimate of falling 1.2%. That was a
substantial increase and it resulted almost entirely due to a change in New
York City building codes. Therefore,
the housing data is not indicative of the condition of housing across the
country.
According to many
of the analysts quoted on Dow Jones Wire Service, gold is still on course for
its $1,000 an ounce target. That target
could actually be reached in the next thirty days. Gold has rebounded and demand increased at times when it was not
expected to. This is again, a bullish
signal indicating great underlying strength in this market. Barring unforeseen circumstances, it seems
likely gold will rise to $1,000 within thirty days and to $1,050 or more within
the next ninety days. This is a great
opportunity to get into the gold and silver market. They have bounced off the lows; they have held support and the
rising trend lines remain well in place.
Therefore, do not miss the opportunity to acquire gold and silver at
bargain basement prices. Call Goldline

Be sure to ask
Goldline for the free information package, which includes several articles from
major banks warning of a stock market crash in the next several months. You should also ask for the FDIC brochure,
which will help you to understand how to be sure your bank accounts are
property insured by the FDIC. Many
people have lost money on the collapse of IndyMac Bank simply because they did
not have these accounts titled properly.
Over ten thousand people lost a total of $1 billion by making these
mistakes. You cannot afford to make
these mistakes. Call now for the FDIC
brochure.
Investors should
contact Goldline and ask them to explain the features, benefits and cost
structure of the various gold and silver investments that are available to
you. Select those that best meet your
own personal and individual investing needs and objectives. Investors looking for low transaction costs
may wish to consider bullion assets such as American Eagles, Krugerrands,
Canadian Maple Leafs, Silver Bags or Silver Bars. However, the Price Guarantee Program is not available with these
assets.
If you would like
to take advantage of the Price Guarantee Program, which provides you with a
two-week window of opportunity in which to re-price your order in the event of
a correction, you must select assets with some collectible value such as Swiss
20 Francs, Double Eagles and Silver Dollars.
When you acquire 29 Swiss 20 Francs, you will receive the 30th
coin for free. Investors may wish to
consider several tubes of these coins to obtain several free Swiss 20 Franc
gold coins. Call Goldline at 1-800-827-4653
for further information.
To receive the free information
package including the four articles on the dollar, the economy and gold call

also provides several other helpful articles.

you will find extremely helpful and informative. You will also receive the Client Account Agreement, a company
brochure and a Coin Facts Risk Disclosure Booklet, read these carefully before
you make an investment.
Goldline will also send you a free
CD of the special interview with analyst Frank Barbera if you ask for it. This is a remarkable interview and I think
everyone would benefit from listening to it.

1-800-827-4653.
You should carefully read the client Account Agreement and the Risk Disclosure information.
These explain important things you need to know before you invest in precious metals, such as:
past performance does not guarantee future results. Transaction costs are generally 5% to 10% on
bullion and 30% to 35% on coins. This is also referred to as the spread, or the difference
between the buy price and the sell price. The market must go up enough to overcome this spread
before an actual profit is achieved. All markets go up and down. Coins are a long-term, three- to
five-year, preferably five- to ten-year investment, suitable for 5% to 10% of the average
portfolio. Please see Goldline's Risk and Disclosure Statement for further details.
