What do gold trading experts and investors say?
The gold trading investors, experts and various fund managers expressed that the rally in gold will extend further not only in the short term but most importantly, in the long term too. While gold always provides the hedge against inflation, many people expected the precious metal to rise as they expect the central banks in the world to use quantitative methods to boost the economy. However, the minority speculated that the gold trading market may have some correction due to the huge rise recently.

The bullion continued to rise last week when the U.S. Fed announced that they are ready to inject billions of paper currency into the economy by purchasing the government debts. And this is the process which was mentioned earlier as quantitative easing.
Another chief investment strategist said that besides from trusting gold, there’s seriously nothing to trust on as all countries are signalling that they will be printing more money. The gold industry experts even predicted the gold trading price of $1,400/oz by Year 2011.
