All That Glitters Is Making Me Nervous

September 9, 2007 by WendyB

The price per ounce of gold jumped in the past few days. It’s now at $700 an ounce. If it breaks through last year’s high, I’m going to have to adjust all my prices. For more information on what is driving gold prices, click here. To monitor gold prices, click here. It’s hard to believe that back in 2000, gold was under $300 an ounce.

    At $700 an ounce, I guess the trend of buying and melting down unwanted gold jewelry for the metal, instead of re-selling it for artistic reasons, will continue.

    OUCH OUCH OUCH!
    I remember the $300 figure when I was trading and thinking that was high?!
    IS there some other material you could play with?
    Clay or play dough perhaps has not gone up as much 🙂
