| One great way to gauge the economic state we're currently in is to keep an eye on the gold price chart. Savvy investors know that as the value of the dollar falls, along with other distressing economic signs, such as high unemployment, is usually a sign that the price of gold is going to go up. Not just gold either, but other commodities as well. A lot of investors will try to keep the value of their investments safe by switching many of their holdings to gold and other precious metals. Lately it's been easy to tell what many investors think about the state of the economy since gold prices continue to rise. The price of gold, as with other commodities, is tied to supply and demand. The ever increasing prices of gold is an indication that demand is high. That is in direct correlation to the fact that the value of the dollar is falling. Many investors are still buying gold even though the prices are at an all time high, which goes against the wisdom of buying low and selling high. Many believe that gold will continue to rise for the foreseeable future. Others, think that the gold 'bubble' will burst, similar to what happened with the housing market, and those that waited too long to jump in and paid a lot for their gold, will either be stuck with it for a long time (until prices rise again) or could take a bath and lose a lot of their initial investment. Obviously, it remains to be seen which camp is right and which one is all wet. Of course, the price of gold can fluctuate several times throughout the day. The price you pay per ounce will also be determined by the way you buy your gold. If you buy jewelry you can expect to pay more per ounce than the flat rate price simply because the piece of jewelry has a lot of labor and fabrication put into it so you will have to pay for that.
