5 August 2015 - price of gold

Hmm, in times of trouble the price of gold goes up, so if you have a lot of gold then you want to stir up trouble before selling. But wait, that holds for other safe haven investments too, especially U.S. Treasuries. There, the South China Sea won’t be the next flashpoint. The biggest Treasury holders by far, with over $1,200,000,000,000 each, are China and Japan, and both have been seeing some economic weakness. Next up is the East China Sea.
