By general consensus, Herbert von Karajan's first (1963) Beethoven cycle for Deutsche Grammophon is the best of the four (!) that he recorded. The Berlin Philharmonic was in top form, and they had not yet made an artistic fetish out of the bland smoothness that typified the conductor's later recordings of this music (and just about everything else)...

Gold Vs. Dollar - Why Gold May Be The Best Coming Investment Attraction Of The Decade!

GOING FOR GOLD IN 2010
The struggling U.S. Dollar, inflation fears, strong demand for commodities in general, and interest in "safe haven" investments have propelled gold and other precious metals to prices not seen in decades. Where gold will go from here remains unclear, but one thing is for certain: it remains the ultimate hedge and world‟s reserve currency.
During the last major gold bull market – precipitated by the Iran hostage crisis in the late 1970‟s – serious geopolitical tensions and the prospect of runaway global inflation played major roles in gold‟s rise from $300 per ounce to $850 per ounce. As current prices flirt with the $1,000 plateau, some analysts are beginning to believe that the all-time inflation adjusted peak of $2,450 may not be out of the question.
Why Gold? Why now?
Buying and Selling Gold Buying precious metals is very simple, but if done incorrectly, the results can be financially devastating. It is extremely important to buy precious metals from trusted and reputable sources in safe and secure transactions. At all times and in all circumstances gold and silver remains money. Therefore, both gold and silver belongs in your portfolio at all times and in all circumstances. We recommend a holdings between 10-20% of your assets to diversify in metals.
"You can transform your life and business in just seven minutes a day." If that statement makes you want to read on, consider yourself hooked. There are plenty of theories for the recent surge in gold prices, but as in many past rallies, a handful of common factors seem to be in play, including:
Dollar Woes: With the U.S. Dollar in the midst of a months-long swoon against the major global currencies, many investors are turning to gold as a commodity that tends to move inversely with the beleaguered greenback.
Inflation Hedge: High food and energy prices are creating concerns about the potential for soaring inflation. Gold is widely viewed as a sensible hedge against inflation – a store of value even as the purchasing power of traditional currencies erodes.
Geopolitical Concerns: Gold has long been considered a "safe haven" investment during times turbulent and uncertain times, and with the constant threat of terrorism, rogue nations, and energy shocks, many investors have been turning to precious metals.
Diversification: Many investors on the look-out for new ways to spread their money around a number of economic sectors flocked to gold of late. The draw is due not to only gold‟s inherent attractiveness as a commodity component, but because it touches so many disparate areas of the economy – from interest rates and the equities markets to investor sentiment and foreign exchange. Factors Driving the Price of Gold Higher: Inflation adjusted peak of $2,450 an ounce may soon be a reality. On May 20, 1999, Alan Greenspan testified before Congress, "Gold is always accepted and is the ultimate means of payment and is perceived to be an element of stability in the currency and in the ultimate value of the currency and that historically has always been the reason why governments hold gold."
Typically, gold is considered relatively inexpensive when 3 or fewer ounces need to match the level of the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA). Today, by this standard, the price of gold appears to be relatively low with roughly four times this number of ounces of the yellow metal needed to match the DJIA. Just to provide some historical context, in 1929, just before the Wall Street Crash, it took 18 ounces of gold to buy the DJIA, but within three years, it took just two ounces of gold to buy the „Dow‟. In 1966, the ratio surged to 28 ounces, but by 1980, one ounce of gold bought the DJIA. Finally, in July of 1999, at the height of the dotcom stock market frenzy, it took 44 ounces of gold to buy the DJIA.
Gold vs. the Dow & vs. Crude Oil: Ounces of gold to buy DJIA Additionally, gold also has traded historically at prices between 15 and 20 times the price of a barrel of crude oil. Some analysts feel that the current gold-to-crude ratio which is far below its long-term average – signals that gold appears to be relatively undervalued relative to crude and could be poised to move higher.
Ask yourself: Do you expect your retirement portfolio to grow if everything around us is getting worse?
If the economy were to collapse, would you prefer to have an account full of paper or an account full of gold?
If you are one of the many who lost between 20% to 50% of their wealth to the recession, how do you expect to recover what you lost? Or get back to even?
Here is the Answer: Precious Metals - Physical Gold and Silver Coins/Bars Precious metals have had an average annual return of 32% since 2001 and Will likely continue its upward trend as the printing press doesn't seem to be stopping anytime soon.
