Marc Faber: Gold Not necessarily the Best Asset

Marc Faber: I do not think it (Gold) is necessarily the best asset. What I am suggesting is that people should diversify their assets and should own some gold compared to paper money. Over time central banks will continue to print money everywhere in the world. Therefore, the purchasing power of paper money will decline. So I would own some gold. We are in a correction period and we may still go lower. But on this weakness I would continue to accumulate gold. - in ET Now 21 June 2012

Marc Faber Bullish on Gold Shares

Marc Faber : I am also warming to Gold shares. Gold corrected to $1,522 last December from $1,921 in September. It rebounded to $1,795 in February and is back down around $1,600. The correction could last longer, but given that governments will print more money, gold is relatively effective as a currency. My preference is physical gold, but I would also own some gold shares, which have been decimated. Goldcorp [GG] is attractive because most of its properties are in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. The company isn't exposed to regimes that are talking about nationalizing resources. In general, stock markets are oversold. The U.S. government-bond market is overbought. The U.S. dollar is overbought, and gold is oversold near term. - in Barron's Roundtable - June 2012

Buy Gold ahead of QE3

Societe Generale is “enthusiastic on gold” — so much so that in their latest cross-asset strategy report, they call “buy gold ahead of QE3″ their number one strategy, saying it’s “the perfect asset to benefit” from additional loose monetary policy.
In the report, SocGen discusses the historical relationship between the price of gold and the U.S. monetary base. The SocGen team writes that “if gold catches up with the increase in the monetary base since 1920 (as it did in the early 80s), its price would rise to USD 8500/Oz,” adding that just “to close the gap with the monetary base increase since July 2007, gold would have to rise to $1,900/oz, assuming full transmission from the monetary base increase to the gold price.”

Jim Rogers : Going Back to The Gold Standard is unlikely

Question : Are We Going Back To The Gold Standard ? 

Jim Rogers : I think it's unlikely. I know there are lots of people who would like to return to the gold standard, but the problem with the gold standard is that it always had problems, too. Politicians can always figure out ways to try and cheat us, the poor citizens. - in MoneyNews

Peter Schiff : Buy Gold Now or you will be chasing it later

Peter Schiff : I own a lot of gold i own a lot of gold stocks , over the last 6 months to a year they have not gone up in fact the gold stocks have gone down , over a longer time period of course over the last ten years gold has done very very well , so a lot of these problems have been anticipated in the gold market for years , why it has not had a bigger move recently ? I think that has more to do with the relative strength of the dollar versus other fiat currencies which I think is temporary , I also think people are fooled in thinking that us treasuries represent a safe heaven alternative to gold , people who are piling up treasuries are going to regret it that bubble is going to burst , I am confident that eventually people will find their way back to gold as a safe heaven

Marc Faber : some Gold Mining Shares have become very very inexpensive

Gold Mining Shares have become very very inexpensive says  Marc Faber : I am not sure that gold will make a new high this year but I think we bottomed out and I think that some gold mining shares have become very very inexpensive compared to the reserves they have and I think that in the current environment where it is clear that the worst the economy becomes the the more the money printers will be at work that to own a currency whose supply cannot be increased at the will of some clowns that occupy the central banks is a desirable investment
