  No cheap gold in Vietnam
One must wonder how Vietnam, a country where gold investing between 2011-2012 accounted for over 3% of GDP, has handled the global dash for gold in recent weeks.

Certainly, there are several issues at the forefront right now, but many of the biggest issues are being buried. As we transition from 2012 to 2013, let’s take a look at what are likely to be the main themes of 2013.1) The Fiscal Cliff Follies ShowLet’s get something straight right fro

Gary North: Counterfeit gold standards
With his latest commentary, Gary North is dismissive of gold standard advocates, starting with RalphBenko of The Gold Standard Now project, whose latest essay (http://www.gata.org/node/10159), North writes, describes a "counterfeit" gold standard.
