Gold One

Why one of my gold fish is attacking other gold fish ?

I have two gold fish at home. And one gold fish always chases the other one at the back, especially when i switch ON the aquarium light. This is happening from past two weeks, what could be the reason ?

The female chases the male when they are ready to mate. So it means that you may have babies soon or they are just playing.
Also it could be that the fish that is doing the chasing doesn’t like the other goldfish. It has happened to my family, when our goldfish was chasing another a few days later, we would have a dead fish.

Both of what I explained I have been through, so it is hard to tell what the real reason is.

What's Driving Gold and Gold Stocks (Part One)

What's Driving Gold and Gold Stocks (Part One)

Justice Litle, Editorial Director, Taipan Publishing Group

Gold and gold stocks have been hit hard in recent days. The first part examines the reasons why, and the second part covered by gold reserves could be one of the largest transactions of 2009.

Gold and gold stocks have been hammered as of late. The yellow metal had a header on Monday, with the future closure of the right in the 200-day exponential moving average. If this support does not hold today (Tuesday) gold may be even lower price at the time you read this.

So what exactly is happening?

There are several factors at work in here. To spend a little ahead, there are still strong reason to believe gold stocks could be one of the best shopping in the campaign – but in the short term, the environment for gold looks difficult.

The IMF Bogey

One bogey-old who has left the wood is the prospect sales of IMF gold. At the recent G-20 meeting in London, there was general agreement that the IMF (International Monetary Fund) should sell a little more than 403 tonnes of gold to free up cash for lending to poor countries.

Yawn …. IMF to sell gold, "the title makes for better press that the actual details.

On the one hand, 403 tons of gold is not. We're talking about 11 billion U.S. dollars in present value prices. That is a drop at sea, especially compared with the stack of approximately 2 trillion U.S. dollars of reserves in China … less than one per cent of whom are carried out in gold.

(For more details on the relatively small gold holdings of many of the world's central banks, see February 24 Taipan units, each day, "Why the IMF and the Fort Knox will not Hurt in the gold. ")

On the other hand, the prospect of IMF sales is not new. The IMF has actually been trying to sell gold for more than two years. Part of why it has not been able to do this is because it allows the sale requires a 85% majority vote of the 185 IMF member countries.

On top of the fence that 85%, the U.S. essentially has veto power over any measure of IMF gold sales (for the proportional vote, United States rights are so large). In that sense, the U.S. government briefed the IMF, by order of law, congressional authorization is required for the sale of gold to go ahead. (Can you imagine Timmy Turbo make that request to the Congress, in this climate? Ron Paul would have a field day.)

So any sale of adopted IMF gold would be small in amounts readily absorbed by countries like Russia or China (who have openly declared a dislike for their dollar holdings bulky). Any additional sale would require 85% approval, in addition to the approval of U.S. Congress … and last but not least, as the sales, if it occurred, is likely to be disbursed over many years. The remaining 3,200 tons of gold from the IMF holds represent the requirements of membership fees countries and can not legally be sold.

But still, gold has been sinking like a stone. What else could be the problem?

Ready to Scrap

Another source of damage in the short term gold is "scrap gold", or sales of scrap. Private holders of jewelry, particularly in Turkey, the Middle East and Asia, have been stepping up and selling your scrap gold.

India, the largest gold buyer the world 'by a wide margin, has stopped importing even "for the first time in 10 years," reports the Financial Times. In India February and March recorded zero gold imports, while imports came to light in January. Vietnam and Thailand, the normally reliable buyers of gold, too have been selling. Increased sales of scrap even have sales of scrap in Asia with a discount at the appointment of London standard.

Importantly, that many of these scrap sales are driven by fear rather than any sense of market opportunity. Problems of unemployment and rising food costs have forced difficult for families to immerse themselves in Asia of its emergency bays. Traders also pointed out that these junk sales are price sensitive. As the price of the ounce of gold fell to $ 900 and later, sales of scrap volume showed a clear decline.

Mark-to-Whatever

Still another factor in gold has been the suspension of "mark-to-market accounting rules.

Last week, the U.S. FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) gave in to pressure from Wall Street and loosened the mark to market accounting rules, causing a huge sigh of relief from the banks. Here I explained is how members Macro Trader Friday:

Part of the reason stocks met on Thursday was a big suspension of "mark-to-market accounting rules.

In plain English, this means that banks longer have to use real-time price of smelly things on their balance sheets. They will be able to "estimate" what the toxic assets should be worth at instead.

This is kind of a homeowner saying, "Well, my house might not be marketable in this difficult market, real estate, but in a better market I'm sure it would be worth, oh, $ 300,000 … so that's what I'll say it's worth the penalty for now … "

Some people think that suspending the mark to market rules of bank assets is a clever idea. Others think it is a terrible idea. Either way, is very bullish for financials, at least in the short term.

Stocks also met [recently] on the news of a potential injection of billions of dollars in IMF (International Monetary Fund), and the general perception that the G20 meeting in London was a success.

The mark to market change is basically a trick cheap magic. Banks can benefit from the opportunity to leave the real world accounting for accounting fantasy world, but still toxic assets being toxic assets. Smoke and mirrors will not change that.

Hot Money rotation

In sum, the current weakness in gold and gold stocks is short-term perceptions (with the exception of increased pressure from sales of scrap, which remain sensitive to the anguish and the price). News IMF is more hype than substance, and the abandonment of the mark to market accounting rules is a tacit admission of the ugly of photo is still for the banks, instead of a concrete measure to solve the problem.

Meanwhile, Rally-happy traders saw an opportunity to buy risky assets in the rear of the mark to market suspension and the good news of the G-20. As a result of the significant action that we have just seen – the largest of 4 weeks in the Rally of S & P since 1933 – Market segments that previously had suffered from a lack of liquidity, such as high yield debt, commercial real estate assets and so forth, trapped offer enormous. There was a turnover fast and furious hot money "from an" insurance crisis "asset type (such as gold and gold stocks) and in "woohoo let's party!" type assets (such as banking stocks and high yield debt).

That closes the approaching end of term of things of why (the gold and gold stocks therefore) are out of favor right now.

Tomorrow I will share my reasons why gold reserves and gold could still be the creation of one of the biggest deals of the year.
