hit another all time high against GBP today. The trick will be timing when to sell it, but that doesn't look like anytime soon.

Something's up - gold is rising sharply again this morning. Another new record broken.
n.b. The forum search facility seems worse than before, totally broken now I think. After trying for several minutes searching to find this thread using the search tool I eventually gave up and looked through the list of threads manually.Comment

You know, I'm a sort of critical pro-EU, cosmopolitan type of chap, but I wasn't happy when Greece was allowed into the Euro, and I'm pretty pissed off now. The bulk of this bail out will come from German and Dutch taxpayers, who've already bailed out the banks and now find our governments lending about 2500 euros for every taxpayer to a government that has never had any fiscal discipline and as far as I can see is never going to have any and probably won't pay us back. I understand that it has to be done, but FFS, the EU must NEVER AGAIN allow a country into the Euro that hasn't demonstrated iron fiscal discipline for at least 20 years. This could throw every economy in western Europe into chaos.Originally posted by TimberWolf View PostGood theory - the Euro is about the only currency Sterling is up against this morning.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument?
