READ THE AUDIO HIGHLIGHTS BELOW

Gold News: German Repatriation
– Germany allegedly holds 11% of the world’s gold supply. The U.S. is #1 with 26%.
– Germany is now demanding much of its gold held at the Federal Reserve to be returned to Frankfurt.
– The Federal Reserve reacted by saying it would return Germany’s gold within 7 years.
– Why would it take so long to return the gold to Germany unless the Federal Reserve doesn’t have all the gold?
– Netherlands now thinking about asking for its gold back from the Federal Reserve as well.
– What does this mean for gold investors? It’s good for the price of gold – More pressure on the physical gold market.

Silver News
– U.S. Mint cut off the sale of Silver Eagle Coins after only 2 1/2 weeks into 2013.
– U.S. Mint will not resume sales until next week; plus, the premium charged by the U.S. Mint on these coins is now higher at $0.50/oz
– Canadian Maple Leaf also has an increased premium at $0.25/oz
– The good deals in silver right now are the Silver Buffalo and the Silver Morgan 1-ounce silver bars.
– Many forecasters believe silver will outperform the other metals in 2013.

Palladium News
– The price is now in the $720s to $730s. If you were patient throughout the past several months, you are now seeing a nice rise in your palladium holdings.
– With many countries continuing quantitative easing (money printing) in 2013, and with no worldwide recession, I believe palladium should easily reach in the $800s in the next couple of months

Platinum News
– Platinum ended the year 2012 as the best performing metal, but this year (2013) many forecasters are expecting platinum to be second behind silver

Markets
– Debt ceiling increase should have a positive impact on the metals markets.
– The U.S. borrows $4.2 billion per day more than it takes in revenue. The deficit is going up continually. All this is great for the price of gold.
– Japan is also moving toward quantitative easing with its new leadership, which is also great for the metals.
