So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Chinese Government Encourages Investing In Gold And Silver

By Jack Wagon

Gold is not just a metal associated with jewellery, but is also something that consists of the attributes of currency. In addition to being a general commodity, it is also a financial commodity. Numerous investment activities in reference to gold exist basically because it is a solid investment. Gold has always been regarded as an indispensable investment tool.

Recently, it has come under observation that the Chinese government is encouraging people to invest in gold, and silver as much as possible. The idea of purchasing gold and silver is being promoted to the public on a large basis. In China, the chance for silver bullion investments was introduced just this year, being the first time for such a thing to take place.

There were strictures present in China regarding holding of precious metals in reference to investment, this restriction has now apparently been entirely relaxed. This changes the situation from what it used to be a few years ago, when strict control on the distribution of gold and silver as an investment option, existed.

Trends regarding buying of gold have been seen in the Chinese people; therefore, there is at least market stimulation because of the buying. The opinion of the Chinese economic ambassador is that the credit in the country is too loose, and a bubble in the housing market as well as the stocks seems apparent; so the Chinese are investing in gold, and silver due to all these factors. The point of view of the ambassador is that investment in valuable metals such as gold, and silver offers security from any kind of credit bubble fall.

The endorsements by the government for the people to start buying gold, and silver were also shown on the state sponsored television. The investments of the people in gold, and silver on such a large scale means that the already high prices of gold, and silver would not be allowed to go down significantly.

Through encouraging people to deal in gold and silver investments, each bank is going to have bars of both the metals in four different sizes meant for the individuals. Thus, the investments in gold can already be seen as increasing. From being regarded as the nation with the lowest per capita gold consumption, China is now going to be transformed into a nation that handles precious metal investments.

In addition to investments in gold and silver bars within China, the Chinese investors are now also able to do gold trading in London. This is made possible by swiping a Lucky Gold Card. Considering this fact it appears that the Chinese are fast getting hold of a considerable amount of gold, which is considered to be a store of wealth.

Besides gold, silver, an industrial metal regarded as a monetary metal, also amounts to a store of wealth, and is sometimes considered larger in terms of investment.
