How gold prices could hit $1,340

It’s official: China overtakes India as top consumer of gold. China officially overtook India as the world’s largest consumer of gold in 2013, according to the World Gold Council (WGC), in a year that saw overall demand for bullion slump 15 percent owing to heavy exchange traded fund (ETF) selling. Jonathan Barratt, Founder of Barratt’s Bulletin, says continued Chinese demand for the precious metal could push gold prices to hit $1,340.

Precious Metals as a Safe Haven

There’s a great wealth transfer taking place right now. Are you on the losing end or the receiving end?

Wealth Transfer Planning

Precious metals have always been a safe haven for investing in high inflationary times. Historically speaking, a recurring cycle that always seems to repeat itself is periods of high inflation as a precursor to the crash of paper currencies. Those who understand this wealth cycle and position themselves in gold and silver are those who prosper. Precious metals are assets that will never lose their value. They are not subject to systematic risks as paper money and serve as a hedge against inflation and other threats of devaluation. Cornerstone Asset Metals was established to help guide investors safely in and out of the precious metals market.
