GOLD DAY 09-04-10

Date: Friday 9th April 2010

Gold has always been set apart from other commodities and, amidst the ongoing turmoil in the global financial markets the metal is performing its historic role as a store of wealth. Still wary of the current environment, investors (professional and retail alike) want to focus on an asset that will at least hold its value. As a result, the gold price is poised to break back through the US$1,000/oz level.
