Buy gold as an investment

Gold represents that type of investment that suits best your interests. When deciding to acquire Gold you have to know that it is a clever investment choice. There are guidelines to follow so that you know what to expect from such an investment. Gold can be acquired in a variety of forms: gold coins, gold bars referred to as gold bullion, gold stocks or gold certificates.

People in general are used to invest in paper money and cash in a certain interest percentage from fixed bank deposits. However, in time, the return is not all together satisfying; if you purchase gold though, you can take advantage of doing so when its price is low and try to sell it at its financial value peak. As investor you have to follow the best profitable transaction so, trust in gold to maintain the financial balance you desire to attain.

The difference between a money investment and a gold one is that gold is resilient to major economic and monetary crises, fluctuations and inflation. It is, so to say, on the safe side, and you do not have to worry about it experiencing a sudden depreciation. At the moment you set your mind to purchase gold, choose gold bullion coins from authorized institutions that present them with a 99.9% level of purity.

Before acquiring Gold bullion coins you should start a thorough research concerning the gold topic. Focus as well on the premium of the coins which varies on a daily basis. If the coins are small in size the value of the premium is more advantageous. Gold bullion coins are rare and represent a lucrative investment as when you decide to sell them eventually their value will be much higher than the original one.

Gold bullion coins can be purchased from a variety of places: renowned golden stores, authorized dealers, financial institutions, banks or government mints. As far as the gold liquidity is concerned, investing in gold bullion coins is an easy and efficient investment move. You have to take into account a series of costs corresponding to gold bullion coins such as: market, value, premium and manufacturing expenses.

If you are displeased with how regular investments work, it is high time you improved your investment portfolio with pure and rare gold bullion coins. In these times of financial and economic turmoil, there is one certainty: the value of gold has proven time and time again that its course can only go up thus, reassuring your confidence in it as the most suitable class of investment.

US Dollar Strength and The Price of Gold: A Primer

When the US Dollar gets stronger, it takes fewer dollars to buy any commodity that is priced in $USD. When the US Dollar gets weaker it takes more dollars to purchase the same commodity.

The price of all US Dollar denominated commodities, like gold, will change to reflect the fact that it will take fewer or more dollars to buy that commodity. So it’s quite possible, in fact it’s almost always the case that a portion of the change in the price of gold is really just a reflection of a change in the value of the US Dollar. Sometimes that portion is insignificant. But often the opposite is true where the entire change in the gold price is simply a mathematical recalculation of an ever-changing US Dollar value.

When the dollar gets strong, gold appears to go down, and vice versa. That accounts for part of the fluctuations that we see in the value of gold.

The other part is an actual increase in the supply or demand for gold. If the price is higher when being measured not only in US Dollars, but also in Euros, Pounds Sterling, Japanese Yen, and every other major currency, then we know the gold demand is higher and it has actually increased in value.

Consequently, if gold is higher in US Dollars while at the same time cheaper in every other currency, then we can conclude that the US Dollar has weakened, and that gold has actually lost value in all other currencies. But the price, because it is being quoted in $USD will be higher and give the illusion of gold becoming more valuable. In such a case the devaluation of gold, due to increased supply on the market, is camouflaged by a weakened US Dollar.

(1-8) Dinar Emas Matawang Dunia Akan Datang.avi



Money in Islam is precious metals i.e. dinar/gold or dirham/silver or commodities that would not perish over time such as wheat, barley, dates, salt ie. with shelf life. Money thus has an intrinsic value.

Dinar dan Dirham - YB. DATO HAJI HUSAM BIN MUSA



Financial Stucture in Islam:
Dinar = Emas
Dirham = Perak
Fulus = Matawang

Senarionya, Fulus kita guna untuk beli sayur, Dirham untuk beli ayam dan Dinar untuk beli tiket penerbangan.
