Gold ETF Inventory Increasing at Record Pace
February 9, 2009 by goldguru · Leave a Comment
Yeah, yeah, yeah… The inventory at the SPDR Gold Shares ETF (NYSEArca:GLD) made another new all-time high last Thursday. What else is new? It was the ninth new high in the previous 13 days and the 12th new high in the previous 23 days. Here’s a different way to look at the seventh largest (and fastest growing) gold holdings in the world – month by month since the fund was started back in late-2004.
Tim Iacono submits:
Aside from the initial purchases to start the ETF, those three circled periods are the fastest three-month rates of increases in gold inventory and it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see what happens to the gold price during and after these periods.
