Have you ever seen the movie Fools’ Gold? It was a movie starring Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson. It was about a lost treasure made of gold and jewelry that was supposed to be the dowry offering of a Spanish prince to his fiance. Even then, gold has been considered a measure of wealth. Gold has been used to trade and as a currency for barter even. Now, if you buy gold coins at the US Bureau, you are actually investing on a wise deal. Taking a look at global demand, you will see that China and India are the two leading countries for buying gold. In India, gold is given as a gift on special occasions and newlyweds are often showered with gold gifts on their wedding day. Some investors believe that as we see the billion baby boomers grow up, get married and start investing we will see gold consumption increase even higher. Of course, if Asia, India and the Middle East are doing it, the U.S. is likely to follow.
