Dear Investment U Reader,
Recently some of our more passionate readers on our message boards questioned why we’ve published articles on shorting gold and buying gold coins. How can these seemingly different opinions come from the same website.
How could we possibly have opposing viewpoints in the same website?
It’s simple, really.
We don’t hold a monopoly on good ideas, nor do we sycophantically take a position and hold it blindly. We won’t do that with a single stock recommendation and we won’t do that with a sector or asset selection.
We look at a variety of investments, and we look at a multitude of investing ideas. We’re constantly updating our positions with the newest information stream.
Investment U employs a variety of experts who all have their own, differing opinions on the best ways to buy and sell gold, and the timing of adding gold in our current market environment.
Some believe that it looks expensive – it is on the historically high end of its price range. On the other hand, there are valid arguments state that gold isn’t truly priced for inflation, cost of living, American Idol, etc… And many of these are compelling points of view.
So how can we have articles that recommend buying and selling gold? Easy.
While all our experts have their own opinions on the short-term movements in gold, they also believe in our long-term outlook built upon a core strategy of asset allocation, which includes precious metals.
You can believe that gold is currently overpriced, and that it belongs in a long-term portfolio.
Currently gold is at, or near, the top of its historical trading range. And time will tell if it will surpass those levels, but we don’t see that happening in the near present, especially with the opportunities in equities right now.
As for those investors who are still concerned over the global economic picture and would feel more comfortable in hard assets like gold… We can’t stop anyone from doing what they feel is best.
And if there is a need, or interest, (or deep pathological fanaticism) in buying gold, Investment U will be sure our readers have the information to make the best decisions possible – regardless of our opinions.

The Single Best Investment for 2009
Forget another stimulus package. Or retreating into "safe-havens" like cash and gold. All you need in 2009 is a small exposure to the "secret" White Cap Index.
It's up as much as 171% straight through Wall Street's meltdown. And one of the latest stocks to be added - an Internet-related venture capital company - is up over 100% since its inclusion into the Index.
Just weeks from now, we'll add another White Cap stock to this market-trouncing index. To get a sneak peek, click here for full details.

gold will only touch 850$ if possible & want go more than this down possibly the reason behind is if it goes down then buying power of common man increases to buy gold & then all the money is transferred into gold which becomes dump as that money does not rotates in working sector & if prices are high then common man stays away from buying gold & thus the money with the common man rotates in the market which is very important for economy of the world.hence very soon we will see price of gold at 950$ level
