    Amazingly symbolic publicity stunt, this kind of stuff often marks the top in lots of markets.

    Be careful out there

    PR for both parties.

    both parties better be careful how transaction is reported as income by one and expense by the other. IRS would love some PR as well.

    Gold is currently bid at a very patriotic $1776.

    It's probably only really worth half of that. the rest is hype bubble isn't it?

    not a sign of the top unless the federal debt has changed for the better recently????

    this is just a publicity stunt for the both APMEX and Trump.

    Both love the free advertising.


    The sad part is that this message sent will not be a message received by anyone important.

    Absolutely! Remember, the supply of dollars is limited but the government can print all the gold it wants. image

    Why shouldn't Trump take gold? The too-big-to-fail banks have already instituted similar policies stating they'll take it as well for payments/collateral.

    I'd take it too....and so would a few supermodels. image

    Depends on what was done after the gold was taken in payment. If sold at that time and locked in that price, then what's the advantage of taking it in the first place?

    If sold later for a loss, or held till now, should have stuck with good ole dollars, it turns out.

    Gold price since then

    Maybe he's aware of the long term gold value vs. dollar value and not just thinking about his needs for tomorrow.

  • Trump can be smart. image he obviously doesn't need the cash.
  • BaleyBaley Posts: 22,660 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Wonder if he still has the gold?

    Baley, my understanding is, he's using it to coat the strands of his fantastic come-over.
