Is the gold honey moon about to end?

To hedge or ...........


Although, Gold is the best commodity to hold in the current global financial markets, the Chinese Money is becoming convertible and believed to be a good alternative to hold as well.

Refreshing your Memory, in the article called “TALA ARZE BEDOUN MARZ 6”, written on 21st of July 2011,  I Wrote that the gold price has no way but to go up until a new world reserve currency is defined and come to play.
According to my studies and research, China is aggressively promoting its currency to be internationalized and fully convertible by the year 2015.
 Many finance ministers and professionals are acknowledging now that the China currency “Yuan” might be a good candidate to be a new “world currency reserve”.
During the last few months, some central banks are openly or confidentially have been buying "Yuan" to hold as part of their reserve currency. Though gold is still the most valuable asset to hold, but part of the world cash capital which used to be spent in gold trades are going to Yuan transactions now.  
London has initiated a market to trade the Chinese currency,and the  DIM SUM  bonds denominated with “Yuan” are being heavily traded  in Asia and redirecting  the world capital toward its currency.
On the other hand, the likelihood of double dip recession might hurt the commodities including gold and silver and oil. So in my opinion maybe, Investors should take the necessary steps to hedge their gold positions and holdings.

I am writing a new detailed article in Farsi regarding the Chinese activities to internationalize its money , and its negative impact on the gold prices in the coming months. This article will be published and posted next week.

Good luck
