-->Hi,

Gold spielt (neben Silber) natürlich in Indien eine gewisse Rolle. Dazu heute ein INRA-Beitrag (gekürzt):

New Delhi, March 30, IRNA --

Gold has been on the decline in the last few weeks, in Indian
market it has reacted from Rs.5,600 (10 gm) to Rs.5,250.
Gold's properties as a low risk, reliable store of value, and an
asset of last resort in times of uncertainty because of its high
liquidity, were evident in 2002 and particularly in the last few
months.

(...)

In fact, investors, institutional funds and speculators did not
bargain for a longer war. It is expected that gold will continue to
remain range-bound at $328-340. In the domestic market, around 200
tonnes of gold came in over the last two months through recycling.
This has largely happened because investors and ornament holders have
sold gold at higher prices.


Dinesh Parikh, a bullion analyst, said in the current calendar
year, recycling would definitely impact imports, which could be down
by around 30 per cent to about 400 tonnes."This marriage season will
extend up to July but next year, it would be shorter".

Meanwhile, War and strengthening Indian rupee that is quoting at
18 month high against dollar are giving sleepless nights to exports
across sectors, be it commodity, jewelry or software.
(...)

He said that the shipments to the
Persian Gulf have come to almost standstill.

Local currencies like riyal and the dinar have depreciated
steeply against dollar. So, the imported goods have become very costly
for them, resulting into a fall in demand.
And, for exporting country like India, when the amount is
converted into rupee via dollar, it is not very profitable, said
Deora. Gems and jewelery sector is not hit due to rupee depreciation
but because of war.

-->Hallo

Schaut man sich die Minenwerte unterschiedlicher Qualität an, so wird man auch feststellen, dass die zweifelhafteren wie Silverado schon beinahe die grosse Welle 2 hinter sich gebracht haben, die spekulativen wie Durban Roodepoort noch mittendrin sind und die solideren wie Kinross oder Goldcorp gerade erst angefangen haben.

Viel Erfolg und einen schönen Sonntag
