Sejak berabad lamanya, emas telah dikenali sebagai satu cara
menonjolkan kekayaan seseorang dan memainkan peranan penting dalam
jual-beli kuasa. Semasa tamadun pemerintahan Mesir dan Yunani lagi, emas
digunakan bukan hanya untuk tujuan kecantikkan, tetapi juga sebagai
cara berjual-beli dan sebagai satu kuasa mengubah nasib seseorang itu.
Namun begitu, apa sahaja yang mempunyai nilai ke atasnya, pasti akan ada
mekanisme jatuh-bangun nilainya.Pasaran emas dilihat stabil baru-baru ini sejak diniagakan pada bulan Ogos iaitu setinggi $1927 dan serendah $1529 pada 16 September lalu. Kemeruapan petunjuk VIX dikatakan sebagai punca penstabilan hasil bumi itu. Di dalam artikel terdahulu kami, kami ada menyarankan penjualan di bulan Ogos selepas sedikit gencatan di dalam harga Emas. Jadi ke mana kita sekarang?
Mengambil kedua-dua pandangan terkini politik dan ekonomi di serata dunia, kami telah sampai kepada satu rumusan yang masa untuk memberikan keyakinan terhadap Emas sudah menyinar. Masa untuk berkeyakinan pada Emas pada masa ini adalah berasaskan alasan-alasan fundamental dan teknikal.
Secara fundamentalnya, ada banyak sebab kenapa harga Emas akan melonjak naik.

MINGGU ini saya bercerita sedikit tentang emas sebagai pelaburan.
Sebenarnya emas sudah menjadi bahan pelaburan sejak harganya mula-mula
diselaraskan pada tahun 1717 oleh Sir Isaac Newton.
Pada tahun 1971, emas tidak lagi terikat dengan Dolar Amerika dan diperdagangkan secara bebas. Pada 6 Oktober 2009 baru-baru ini, harga emas di pasaran emas dunia melonjak sebanyak AS$24.60 kepada AS$1,041.80 seauns sehari.

Today's inflation figure stands at 0.5 percent. And, although there was negative inflation in June, the 12-month figures are all alarmingly high, topping out at 3.6 percent.
Does that mean it's really and finally back, for sure? We're afraid so.
The Fed has one time-tested way of doing this, which is to strip out food and energy prices: if you do that, inflation was just 0.2% last month, and 1.8% over the past year. Meanwhile, energy costs have gone haywire:

The drop in gold price was the worst since the 2008 banking crisis. — Reuters pic
Written by Lim Siew May of theedgemalaysia.com
KUALA LUMPUR: Gold’s reign as a safe haven investment is strengthening. The price of the precious metal has almost doubled within a year — it was traded at only US$1,192.51 (RM3,584.69) an ounce a year ago and hit a high of US$1,800 an ounce on Aug 11.
As an investment, gold is held mainly for capital appreciation. But its popularity and security has prompted lenders to create a new mode of financing. Islamic pawnbroking schemes offered by Bank Rakyat and Agrobank allow borrowers to use gold coins or jewellery as collateral. Designed to adhere to Islamic laws, borrowers pay a safe-keeping fee, as opposed to a compounding interest rate.

A recently released WikiLeaks cable shows
that China is converting much of its foreign holdings in gold; far away
from the U.S. dollar.
A majority of China's gold reserves are located here in the U.S and in some European countries.
While the U.S. and Europe have an
alternative agenda to dissuade people from viewing gold as an
international reserve currency, China's upping their ante. In doing so,
China aims to push other countries towards reserving in more and more in
gold; leaving the U.S dollar by the wayside.
1) Economy
The U.S. manufacturing base has been shipped overseas. The few jobs being created are in the service industry or government sector. The official unemployment rate hovers near 10%, and 1 out of every 8 Americans is on food stamps. The 2008 economic implosion destroyed the real estate market, sent foreclosures skyrocketing, and swallowed up a nearly $1 trillion bailout... and yet, most experts predict the worst is still to come.

LONDON (Reuters) - The euro and
growth-linked currencies may fall on Monday, hit by a lack of concrete
measures from Group of Seven finance chiefs to address either faltering
growth, the escalating euro zone debt crisis, or exchange rate
volatility.
The dollar, yen and, to a lesser
extent, Swiss franc are set to advance with more investors seeking
safe-haven currencies on the back of rising financial market stress.
That will raise the risk of more solo intervention from Japanese and Swiss authorities.
The flight to safety should drive
core government bonds like German Bunds and British gilts higher,
leading to wider spreads over euro zone peripheral debt, while European
banking shares may ease on mounting worries about contagion engulfing
bigger economies like Italy and Spain.
Finance ministers and central
bankers from the Group of Seven industrialized nations pledged to
respond in a concerted matter to a global slowdown. However, they
offered no specific steps and differed in emphasis on Europe's debt
crisis.
Hedge funds run by Orix Investment
Corp., Superfund and Four Elements Capital Management Pte
benefited from the surge in gold last month, weathering the U.S.
sovereign downgrade and Europe’s deepening debt crisis.
The Orix Commodities Fund, which uses computer programs to search for price signals in futures markets, gained 3.5 percent in August, while Superfund Blue Gold, which invests in global equities and tracks the bullion price, jumped 13.45 percent, the firms said. Gold investments in the Earth Element Fund, run by former commodity traders at BNP Paribas (BNP) and JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM), returned 1 percent, helping trim losses in the fund.
Gold surpassed $1,900 an ounce for the first time in August as investors sought protection for their wealth on concerns that global economic growth is slowing. The Eurekahedge Hedge Fund Index lost 1.9 percent in August and the MSCI World Index slid 7.3 percent, their worst month since May 2010.
“Gold has become a very volatile asset class so if you’re good at trading through the volatility you can profit from it,” said Peter Douglas, principal of Singapore-based GFIA Pte, which advises investors seeking to allocate money to hedge funds and runs a wealth-management business.

Central banks in Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines said on Thursday that inflation pressures were abating, and predicted they will get more relief as the weakening world economy chills demand.
This is not a sure bet. It assumes that a large portion of the price pressure emanates from abroad rather than from domestic demand, which may not be the case in countries such as China where growth remains strong.
But a look back at the 2008 financial crisis shows that many Asian countries are in a better position to respond to another downward spiral now should the need arise.
Even though inflation is running too hot for comfort across the region, it is lower now than it was in 2008 for some economies, including Indonesia and the Philippines.
Overall gold demand fell 17 percent year-on-year in the three months from April to June to 919.8 tonnes, hammered by a sharp drop in investment demand which offset a tentative recovery in jewellery buying, the gold mining industry-funded WGC said in August.

Gold is for wealth preservation and silver is for bartering. If we are talking about protecting wealth in the amount of several million dollars then a good spread to own in precious metals would be 80% gold and 20% silver. If we are talking about a “Mad Max” scenario where we are trying to set ourselves up for a black market bartering system then a good spread would be 75% silver and 25% gold. I will leave it to you to determine what would be an appropriate ratio for you based on the assets you are trying to protect.

Gold is up 1.7%, or $32, to $1,909 an ounce after the Swiss National Bank capped the Swiss franc exchange rate with the euro at 1.20. Investors are also pouring into the alternative currency as Eurozone markets fell hard yesterday and U.S. markets are opening down over 2%. Italy tumbled 5.3%, Germany fell 5.5% and France dropped 4.9%.

As
the dollar continues its fall against other world currencies, it makes
imports and foreign travel more expensive for Americans. But some
investors have cashed in on the trend -- by investing in mutual funds
and ETFs that trade in currencies.
Currency exchange-traded funds and mutual funds -- all of which bet on the dollar's movement against one or more currencies -- are growing quickly, though still a niche product. In the first seven months of the year, they took in nearly $2.8 billion in new cash from investors, sending their assets up 37% from the year before, according to Morningstar Inc.
Most of these funds bet against the dollar, which fell 6.2% this year, through August, against a broad basket of currencies including the euro, the Japanese yen and the Swiss franc.

Gold keeps finding new catalysts to rise and hit record highs every time. On 2nd August, despite news reports showing Republicans and Democrats are on the verge of resolving the debt-ceiling issue, it rose to view records of $1660.
Many of us anticipated a temporary correction lower in Gold when the deficit-ceiling impasse ended, because Gold had ran up roughly 10% from 1st July to entire month, a period when the debt-ceiling gridlock and potential for a default increasingly dominated headlines.

Price forecast: Q3 11: $1725/oz; Q4 11: $1875/oz; 2012 annual average: $2000/oz
Gold prices tested fresh all-time intraday highs before dipping below $1800/oz this week; however the macro environment has become increasingly Gold favourable with central banks keeping interest rates unchanged, the SNB's (Swiss National Bank’s) decision to limit the strength of the CHF and continued uncertainty surrounding the state of the global economy. Good physical demand has emerged from price dips, and other central banks have announced they will add to their gold reserves. In turn, barring short-term corrections, we remain positive on gold.

Daniel's wife owns at least a kilogram of jewellery and he sports a gold watch. But he is also shrewd enough to realise that the world's biggest gold consumers are falling out of love with wearing their wealth, preferring to stock up on coins, bars and bullion-based investment funds as they look for returns safe from the ravages of inflation and the dictates of fashion.

LONDON (Sept 8, 2011): Gold
bounced back on Thursday as the previous session's dramatic 3% price
slide tempted physical bullion buyers back to the market, with concerns
over euro zone debt and the US economy firmly underpinning interest.
Financial markets are keenly awaiting key speeches on the US economy from President Barack Obama and Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke later, and the outcome of the latest policy meeting of the European Central Bank (ECB).

Perkataan karat diambil dari perkataan Latin iaitu kerátion (??????o?), atau dari perkataan Arab q?r?? (?????) dan juga dari perkataan Itali carato, yang bermaksud Biji Kacang Carob, Pada waktu dulu sebelum timbangan gram, oz atau mana2 berat standard digunakan, orang-orang tua kita menggunakan biji kacang carob (dikhabarkan setiap bijinya adalah sama walau dimana ia tumbuh) sebagai timbangan berat. Mengikut persamaan , 1 karat adalah bersamaan dengan 24 (berat emas)/(berat total item).
Mengikut pengetahuan hari ini taburan penemuan emas utama di Semenanjung Tanah Melayu terdapat di Jalur Tengah, iaitu dari Batu Melintang di Kelantan, menuju ke selatan melalui Sokor, Pulai, Selinsing, Raub, Chenderas hinggalah ke Gunung Ledang di Johor. Jumpaan terbaru dibuat di Jalur Timur iaitu di kawasan Mersing di Johor dan Lubuk Mandi di Terengganu.
Perlombongan emas di Malaysia hanya terhad di beberapa kawasan sahaja, ia dikenali sebagai Jalur Tengah yang terbentang dari kawasan tanah tinggi Batu Melintang, Jeli, Kelantan, sehingga Gunung Ledang di Johor. Lombong terbesar yang masih aktif di Malaysia adalah di Penjam,kuala lipis, ia mengeluarkan hampir 95% pengeluaran emas Malaysia.

Selain itu masih ada 5 lagi lombong di Jeli dan 6 lombong sekitar kawasan raub, kuala lipis di Pahang masih digali untuk aktiviti perlombongan komersial.
The golden constant
Since the 14th Century, gold’s purchasing power has maintained a broadly
constant level.To put this in practical terms, an ounce of gold has repeatedly
bought a mid-range outfit of clothing.This was true in the fourteenth century,
when an ounce of gold was worth £1.25 to £1.33;it was true in the late 18th
century and it remained true at the beginning of this century (2000 to 2008),
when an ounce of gold averaged £269 or $472. Even the exchange rate
between gold and commoditieshas been relatively constant over the centuries.
On the other hand, the US dollar that bought 14.5 loaves of bread in 1900 buys
only 3/4 of a loaf today.While inflation and other forces have ravaged the value
of the world’s currencies, gold has emerged with its capacity for wealth
preservation firmly intact. Being no-one’s liability, gold exhibits the same wealth
preserving qualities in the face of financial turmoil, earning a reputation as a
crisis hedge in addition to its credentials as an inflation hedge.

looking to acquire gold and coal assets in Indonesia, managing director
and chief executive officer Manuel V. Pangilinan said last week.
The move comes more than a year after First Pacific effectively gained control of Philex Mining Corp., the Philippines’ biggest gold producer. If successful, it could also be First Pacific’s next major acquisition outside the Philippines.

* Spot gold pulls back from record high; buying robust

SINGAPORE, Aug 24 (Reuters) - Gold buyers rushed into Asia's
physical market on Wednesday, after prices retreated from the
record high hit in the previous session, as investors maintained
interest in bullion due to a shaky global growth outlook.

SINGAPORE:
Gold premiums in Singapore and Hong Kong rose on growing appetite for
physical gold from Asia's investors, after prices fell off a record
above $1,900 hit last week.
An upcoming festival and wedding season in India and a week-long holiday in early October in China are expected to help boost gold appetite.
"Prices came down from the peak last week -- this is the main cause behind the buying," said a Singapore-based trader, adding that most buying came from households seeking to use gold to hedge against inflation and economic uncertainties rather than jewellers.

LONDON, Sept 2 — Europe’s most indebted nations are under heavy
pressure from their richer neighbours to sort out their finances, but
they are unlikely to mimic the impoverished gentlefolk of old by selling
off the family silver — or in their case, gold — to do so.
More than 750 tonnes of gold are currently sitting in the state coffers of Portugal, Greece and Spain alone, equal to about 17 per cent of the 2010 annual supply of bullion from mining and sales of scrap.
Despite struggling with massive debt burdens and in some cases accepting multi-billion-euro bailout packages, the so-called PIIGS — the countries above, plus Ireland and Italy — have not dipped into their gold reserves to service that debt.

But gold investors shouldn’t be too concerned about the short-term swings of the volatile gold market...
They should be focused on what’s really going on in the financial world — and how it will propel gold to currently unthinkable levels.
Gold's incredible run has been a bit too far too fast for most investors.
Gold is up 54% in the past year.
That’s a big gain in any market. And from what recent history has taught most investors, that’s too far, too fast.
That's what I wrote last week...Gold prices fell about 10% in the next 48 hours.But gold investors shouldn’t be too concerned about the short-term swings of the volatile gold market...
They should be focused on what’s really going on in the financial world — and how it will propel gold to currently unthinkable levels.
You're now thinking about gold.
We all are. (It's up $46 today).
And if you don't already own some — with global forecasts worsening by the day — you're seriously
contemplating it.
Or at least, you should be...
Something changes inside a person when they
feel the weight of that first bar or bars in their hand. It's not the
shininess or surprising density; it's a feeling of security that washes
over you as you hold — in your own palm — a building block of
civilization.
It's magical.

The Gold-Silver Ratio
If you average out the price ratio between gold and silver (how many ounces of silver an ounce of gold will buy) throughout history, you land on a single magical proportion: 16 to 1. This chart is slightly outdated, but gets the point across nicely.
And even experts who do not subscribe to fixed pricing relationships generally agree that a price ratio of 20 to 1 should be considered normal.

On the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange, gold just recently traded at $1,833.10 per ounce, gaining 0.2 percent, up $3.60.
Overall, gold has gained approximately 12 percent in the month of August and 30 percent over the course of the year. And analysts say the $1800-mark is a psychologically important number, showing investors still have serious doubts about a rebounding stock market.

Market analysts suggest that holders of physical gold control the market.
Whether it is gold bars or coins, whoever
actually owns those pieces of gold are the investors who drive the
market according to Julian Phillips from The Gold Forecaster.
Yes, there are many ways to invest in
gold and a plenty of reasons to do so, but most investors never actually
own gold per se, but instead buy options or stocks.
Gold is officially the most desirable precious metal, asset, and
safe-haven in these tough economic times, and seasons of political
unrest.
According to the Aug. 11-14 Gallup poll, 34 percent of Americans choose gold as the best investment option. Real estate is in second place, then stocks/mutual funds, followed by savings accounts and CDs, with bonds as the fourth top-rated investment.

Investors are well aware of many of the reasons for having gold as part of their portfolio. Lately, these reasons have swirled around macroeconomic concerns -- the U.S. debt rating downgrade , possible sovereign defaults in the eurozone and the possibility of more money printing from the Federal Reserve via a third round of quantitative easing.

Venezuela holds almost 60% of its physical gold reserves in the US, Canada, England and Switerland. Now in an effort to diverisfy its holdings away from US and European financial institutions, Chavez wants to repatriate the precious metal.
“We’ve held 99 tons of gold at the Bank of England since 1980. I agree with bringing that home,” Chavez said yesterday on state television. “It’s a healthy decision.”1

It's been exactly 40 years since Nixon abandoned the gold standard, making your money only as valuable as the hope
behind it.![nixon gold]( "nixon gold")
While that single pen stroke was a death blow for the dollar — and has led us down a path of fiscal ruin
culminating in the downgrading of our debt — one fact remains clear...

J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. (JPM) said they see gold prices steadily
climbing over $2,000 this year, reaching $2,500 by the year's end.
We haven't seen a gold-trend like this since the 1970s, peaking around 1980, but the current global economy could re-create a similar "parabolic" pattern for gold within the next few months.
We haven't seen a gold-trend like this since the 1970s, peaking around 1980, but the current global economy could re-create a similar "parabolic" pattern for gold within the next few months.
Back in April gold spiked to prices hovering around the $1500 range. At that time, Goldline International Inc. predicted gold would surge to $1700 per ounce by 2015...
Fast foward just about three months later, and we've already hit the spot. Today, Monday, August 8 2011: gold reached $1700, and is properly positioned to hike even further in response to Standard & Poor's slashing of the U.S. credit rating on Friday.

Gold is huge right now. More valuable than other commodities and
safer than other currencies. It's officially here to stay. And silver's
not far behind...
Prices are falling slightly after surpassing records (remember: buy on dips!) earlier this week. Take a look at the charts. Then read the article to see the growth prospects that lie ahead for these two precious metals.

It's an adventure story worthy of a movie. The only thing that's missing is Indiana Jones.
In Thiruvananthapuram India, locked vaults inside a 16th-century Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple hold a plethora of riches ranging from gold coins, trinkets, and golden statues, to diamonds and a surplus of precious stone jewels.

Get ready. We are now entering the final stages in the collapse of the U.S. dollar...
And it's not going to be pretty.
The massive increases in money supplies will tank the value of the dollar and erode the very fabric of America's economic security.
As a result, gold and silver prices are will no doubt skyrocket, despite the short-term major volatility we've recently seen.

By Steven OrlowskiI recently watched the classic man-eating fish movie "Jaws" and the latest action in the precious metals space reminded me of the tagline for the film, "Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water…"
Is it safe to swim in the water? Or is Jaws still lurking out there, the physical embodiment of a financial world gone lethal? Can gold still protect us?

Following four sessions of sizeable losses in value, precious metals
climbed along with crude oil this morning as a vote on the
implementation of required austerity measures neared in Greece. Prime
Minister Papandreou’s proposed 78 billion euro program of spending cuts
and asset sales faces a tough sell but is the prerequisite to the
release of some 12 billion euros in payments coming from the initially
approved bailout package.
New Delhi: Silver prices rose by Rs 510 to Rs
51,160 per kg in futures trading on Wednesday as speculators enlarged
their positions on the back of a firming global trend.
At the Multi Commodity Exchange, silver for delivery in July
rose by Rs 510, or 1.01 per cent, to Rs 51,160 per kg, with a business
turnover of 6,774 lots.
Similarly, the metal for delivery in September moved up by Rs 510, or 0.99 per cent, to Rs 52,072 per kg, with an open interest of 1,632 lots.

Mengerjakan haji merupakan salah satu daripada Rukun Islam yang lima.
Setiap orang Islam yang mempunyai kemampuan, diwajibkan mengerjakan
haji sekali seumur hidup. Firman Allah Taala :
“Menjadi suatu kewajipan ke atas setiap manusia (orang-orang mukmin) pergi mengerjakan haji ke Baitullah, iaitu bagi mereka yang mempunyai kemampuan. Barangsiapa yang kufur (ingkar), maka ketahuilah bahawa sesungguhnya Allah Maha Kaya (tidak memerlukan sesuatu pun) daripada pihak lain (alam).”

Baru-baru ini saya ada post artikel mengenai simpanan haji melalui Dinar Emas. Seperti mana kebiasaan kita menyimpan untuk kos mengerjakan haji selalu nya di Lembaga Tabung Haji. Memang betul ianya satu badan atau institusi untuk simpanan dan meyelenggarakan urusan haji bagi para jemaah di Malaysia.

As the world's top gold producer and
second largest consumer, China is the single most important player in the global gold arena.
Last year, Chinese gold demand grew by
32% — reaching nearly 25,000,000 ounces for the first time in
history. Yet despite the country's seemingly insatiable appetite for the
yellow metal today, world leaders are concerned the demand for gold
could get
out of hand...

The report highlights a worldwide lack of new production and increasing demand from Asia. More from CNBC:
In an otherwise quiet article about central banks today, Bloomberg
quoted an analyst who says China may use up to a third of their $3
trillion in foreign reserves to purchase gold.
China has been moving away from the dollar, and into alternative stores of wealth for years now.
But $1 trillion into gold? If it happens, such a large move would further threaten the dollar's status as reserve currency. It would also provide further buying pressure in gold for years to come (as the dollar crumples into a pitiful heap on the floor).

Hyderabad,
June 17 (IANS) Around Rs.12 crore in cash and nearly 100 kg of gold
were found from Yajur Mandir, the personal chamber of late spiritual
guru Sathya Sai Baba, at Prashanti Nilayam in Puttaparthi of Anantapur
district, a trust official said.
Kesohoran dinar sebagai satu matawang rasmi dalam sektor ekonomi sudah
lama tersemat dalam lembaran sejarah Tamadun Islam. Dewasa ini komoditi
ini seringkali dicanangkan sebagai instrumen alternatif dalam aktiviti
ekonomi dunia semasa. Fakta ini adalah berasaskan kepada nilai intrinsik
atau tersendiri yang diyakini boleh digunapakai secara lebih meluas
serta konsisten. Namun demikian, masih ramai belum mengetahui dari mana
dan bagaimana ia boleh berkembang sehingga menjadi satu matawang utama
dalam kronologi ketamadunan Islam.
Penggunaan dinar emas menggantikan mata wang dalam sistem perniagaan dapat membantu mengurangkan kesan akibat krisis kewangan yang berlaku sekarang.
Naib Canselor Universiti Malaya (UM), Profesor Datuk Dr. Ghauth Jasmon berkata, penggunaan dinar emas adalah praktikal ketika ini memandangkan nilai emas yang sentiasa meningkat.
WANG dan sistem kewangan banyak berkaitan dengan penghasilan kekayaan.
Malah, ramai beranggapan wang itu sendiri adalah kekayaan. Dalam hal
ini, institusi kewangan memainkan peranan penting.
Institusi kewangan berperanan memobilisi simpanan sedia ada serta menyalurkan kepada pelabur supaya dapat digandakan untuk kekayaan dan penghasilan modal. Peranan dimainkan institusi kewangan ini tidak boleh dipandang remeh.

timbangan atau neraca yang berarti juga menegakkan keadilan.

Sinclair stated, “Well I think the gold market today is acting
extraordinarily well being on the positive side when every other asset
that people can find are being thrown out the window, especially in the
equity markets...Where gold is concerned you are dealing with the
condition of the international banks, with the balance sheets of the

San Antonio, Texas-- (Kitco News) Gold should trade
to just over $1,600 an ounce by the end of 2011 and silver should be
flirting with $50 an ounce as governments will need to maintain a loose
monetary policy despite the phasing out of stimulus packages in the
U.S., according to the director of a major research firm.
Philip Newman, research director of GFMS, said in an interview on the sidelines of the International Precious Metals Institute’s Precious Metals Conference here there may be too much focus in the markets on the second quantitative easing versus a possible third program.

BENONI -
After a quiet and steady week, gold jumped in New York yesterday. In Asia, after New York's higher close at $1,540, the gold price was steady, which was surprising because it was in the face of a stronger dollar. The result was the gold in the euro jumped from below €1,049 to €1,064.
It was not until London opened that the gold price
started to move slightly up to $1,543. At London's morning Fix it was
set at $1,541.00 and in the euro at €1,064.45. Gold is still
consolidating.

OPEC discussion on Wednesday led to another technical hick up. It centered on whether or not the current slip-up in global growth is a result of too high oil prices. The Saudi’s on one side kept saying that high prices are having an impact, and should be lowered to support the global economy, but Iran insisted the world is slowing down anyway and increasing output may lower prices below $80, damaging its ability to fund domestic projects.
