    PPS: Hast Du gesehen, dass sich die ZKB Leute angenehm überrascht über die "Anleger fragen am Telefon" geäussert haben!?
    Habs im Thread für die Weissmetall ETFs vor ein paar Tagen zitiert & markiert.
    Denen hast Du mit dem abtelefonierten Fragenkatalog offenbar gleich gezeigt, wos transparenztechnisch langgeht! :D


    :D ja hatte ich gelesen :D
    ....allerdings hätte ich mir gewünscht, dass da noch ein paar Infos mehr rübergekommen wären, ich hatte ihm den Thread-Link gesandt und geschrieben, dass ich gerne "übermitteln" würde, aber das war denn wohl zu viel "Intimität" :rolleyes: ich sagte ihm noch, man solle die "Macht" der Foren nicht unterschätzen :D :D :D :D ;) [Blockierte Grafik: http://www.stock-channel.net/stock-board/images/smilies/Escht.gif]

    Canadian Mint Introduces Wheel-Sized Pure Gold Coin (Update3)


    By Alexandre Deslongchamps


    May 3 (Bloomberg) -- The Royal Canadian Mint today unveiled a gold coin that's as big as a car wheel and as thick as a hardcover novel, in a bid to help win business lost to global competitors.


    The 100-kilogram (220-pound) coin, which is 99.999 percent pure gold, the largest and purest piece ever made, was shown to reporters for the first time today at the mint in Ottawa. While each coin has a face value of C$1 million ($900,000), the purity and quantity of the bullion gold they're made of makes them worth more than twice as much, based on current prices.


    ``The only word I can come up with is, `Wow!'''

    Active Spot Uranium Demand Dropped by 65 Percent in April :rolleyes:


    Uranium Price Momentum Deflated Ahead of NYMEX Futures Trading
    ......Trading in the spot uranium market came to a standstill in the latter half of April. According to Nuclear Market Review’s (NMR) month-end report, “Uranium spot market volume was relatively low for the month of April.” Only three transactions, amounting to slightly more than 550 thousand pounds U3O8 equivalent, were reported for the month......

    ...diese Nymex Geschichte - ich weiss nicht so recht - stimmt mich schon bedenklich :rolleyes:

    ...hätte ich nicht diesen Dines Letter ich wäre nie auf die Idee gekommen in Uran zu investieren - irgendwie schmeckt es mir überhaupt nicht X(

    A measure of political uncertainty has been removed regarding the outlook of uranium mining in Australia.


    At the Labor party's annual conference over the weekend, a 25 year-old ban on new uranium mines has been dropped.


    This clears the way for expansion in the industry, as the Liberals have proposed boosting uranium mining, as well as developing a home grown nuclear power industry.


    But some states, like WA and Queensland still support mining bans on the mineral.


    All this comes as the price of uranium prepares to become even more transparent - with America's Nymex preparing to open trading on uranium future prices from May 6th.

    Bring on the Empty ETFs?


    Roland Watson
    Apr 23, 2007


    This week has been a busy week for silver as announcements of two silver ETFs were made to the media. When I read the words "silver" and "ETF" I was part hoping it was finally the silver stocks ETF I mentioned in the latest issue of my newsletter. However, it was not to be as the third silver ETF was announced by the Zurich Cantonal Bank along with their platinum and palladium ETFs. It will start trading on the 10th May.


    I asked for the prospectus and got some documents in German. I ran it through Google translator and got some extra items of information.


    * This is an ETF targeting institutional and high net worth investors. Further information suggests it is only available to Swiss investors. ?(
    a
    * It is also not bought via shares but by physical ounces. The silver is stored in 30kg bars which presumably equates to the 1000oz bars held by the Barclays silver ETF.
    a
    * Subscribers to the ETF can also take delivery of the physical metal they have previously bought but only in 1000oz bars.
    a
    * Also for the bears, the ETF can be shorted.

    ...hmmm - tönt aber etwas eigenartig - nur Swiss investors ?( da muss ich wohl mal nachfragen :rolleyes:


    linar :)


    ....hmmm - fertig gelesen: ....Now is different. Silver is floating in price and by the time this current phase of the silver bull market ends, a high grade supply of 300 million or more ounces of ETF, Goldmoney and CEF silver could be available to dump onto unsuspecting investors.


    Let me tell you, THAT is a more frightening thought about ETFs than any conspiracy theory can care to suggest. :rolleyes:


    ...ich werde das Gefühl nicht los - der kleine Anleger wird früher oder später immer über den Tisch gezogen X(


    danke Edel, wirklich lesenswert ...obwohl silverchiller vor Optimismus strotzt - mir wird es schon etwas mulmig, vor allem diejenigen welche ich als besonders "sicher" empfand - die near term producer - bergen doch ein ziemliches Risiko :rolleyes:


    linar :)

    ...merci gutso - irgendwie muss ich mir ja auch die vielen Infos verdienen, die ich hier bekomme - mach es eben so, da ich fachlich nicht sehr PM fest bin :rolleyes: ;) :D


    ...ETCs, like exchange traded fund (ETFs), enable investors to trade commodities through ordinary brokerage accounts and can be bought and sold the same day by investors on a regulated exchange in the same way as any equity....

    sehe eigentlich nur den Unterschied, dass das eine Commodity - das andere Fund heisst.

    [miningmx.com] -- A second platinum-backed financial instrument of about 77,000 oz is coming to the market, and producers fret about the possible impact of higher prices on the sensitive jewellery sector in a finely balanced market.


    ETF Securities is listing five new exchange-traded commodities (ETCs) on the London Stock Exchange from 24 April, including a precious metal basket ETC.


    The announcement comes hard on the heels of Zurich Cantonal Bank (ZKB) saying they would launch a platinum, palladium and silver ETF to join their gold ETF.
    We are opposed to the ETF concept :rolleyes:
    Unlike ZKB, however, it is difficult to say exactly how much physical metal is held by the investment banks that will sell the ETCs.


    ZKB said it has 70,000 oz of platinum safely stored in a vault to back its ETF instrument.

    Keep Focused - Mary Anne & Pamela Aden


    Gold is on the rise. Investors are excited, especially after last month's volatility, which proved to be nerve wracking for many gold investors. This alone reinforces why it's important to focus on the major trend.....


    Chart 1 shows gold's mega uptrend and as you can see, the volatility over the past year doesn't look like much. On the contrary, this chart illustrates gold's strength as it sits near the high side of the rise that started in 2001. This is the most important picture to keep in mind when investing in gold. The bull market since 2001 is clearly underway.....


    Note that the mega trend changed in 2002 when the ratio between gold and the Dow Industrials changed to favor gold (see Chart 2). These changes do not happen often but when they do, then the pendulum has swung and it still has a long way to go. This means that gold will continue to outperform stocks for years to come, like it's done in recent years. So this is another key mega chart to keep in mind when investing.....


    .....When we say gold, we mean the gold universe and the best investments within this ample sector. That includes silver, the other precious metals, natural resources and energy.


    Other positive signs that reinforce a powerful bull market are when gold is strong in all currencies, and when all of the precious metals are rising in major uptrends. This is happening today.......


    Gold is strong in all currencies and so is silver (see Chart 3, which shows silver's surge against the euro since 2003). And all of the precious metals are on the rise.

    Wednesday, April 18, 2007 A Uranium Feeding Frenzy! Uranium Futures Market on its Way! / Commodities / Uranium


    By: Money_and_Markets


    Sean Broderick writes: You think the fact that uranium prices have more than doubled in the past 12 months is something? Just wait! I hope you have your safety belt on, because this could be the ride of your life. Here's why …


    There's a feeding frenzy going on in Australian uranium stocks right now. For example, two of the best uranium companies in the world, Areva and Paladin Resources, fiercely bid against each other for another company (and its resources).


    Larger miners are generally very conservative. So the fact that these two companies are throwing so much money around, tells me that uranium — which recently hit $113 per pound — has a long, LO-O-O-NG way to go......


    .......Further down the road, I'd expect to see a uranium ETF :rolleyes: in the U.S. Keep your eyes peeled for that one. It would be yet another force to power uranium prices higher.....
