Five central banks join with Federal Reserve to reduce interest rates.
(1888PressRelease) November 30, 2011 - MIAMI, FL - News broke this morning of a concerted move by five major central banks plus the Federal Reserve to reduce the cost of borrowing dollars. The Bank of England, Bank of Canada, Bank of Japan, Bank of Switzerland, the European Central Bank and the US Federal Reserve launched a coordinated action aimed at restoring confidence in the markets and averting an insolvency crisis for Italy.
The result was a sharp fall in the dollar and a sharp rise in equities, including precious metals. The move makes it cheaper for other countries to buy dollars while also making it cheaper for them to loan money, whether to other countries or to businesses. Putting more money into the system in this way should be strongly supportive of gold as it raises the threat of inflation. A combination of lower interest rates and higher prices turns cash into a depreciating asset and therefore makes gold and other precious metals the desired haven.
"Gold has been behaving like a risk asset recently, instead of a safe haven," says Bill Hionas of Pan American Metals of Miami. "As such it has risen sharply on the back of this morning's news of concerted action by five major central banks and the Federal Reserve. However, if increased liquidity leads to inflation, then we can expect gold prices to soar."
