May 5, 2009 - The United States Dollar is beginning to lose significant value versus other major currencies while the upcoming government bank stress tests are expected to show a dangerous vulnerability in our economy, and this is all causing more wise investors to believe that the future of gold investments may be more bullish than expected. Back in 2001, I had projected that the future of gold investments would be extremely bullish based on forecasts that the dollar, stock markets and real estate would contract. Sure enough, the metal has increased in value more than 300%, outperforming the majority of other investment classes, even throughout the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. Fortunately, many wise investors have taken advantage of this market in order to preserve and profit, yet there are still several investors who feel that the economy will recover despite massive vulnerabilities that are signalling a possible beginning of the second Great Depression.

By around 12:30 PM Eastern Standard Time, the gold spot price currently sits at $903.60 per ounce, increasing $.40 for the day and also increasing $9.80 in the last month. According to Bloomberg.com, the metal is already up to 3.3% this year while several stock indexes are fluctuating between losses and gains. Many of the top market analysts believe that the United States Dollar will continue seeing inflationary pressure, which could mean problems for mainstream financial markets, and this may signal a very positive future of gold investments in both the short-term and long-term perspective.
