Steeds meer klinkende namen in de financiële wereld krikken hun posities in goud substantieel op. Zo rapporteerden we al een aanzienlijke toename van de goudpositie bij Soros en Paulson. Vandaag ontvangen we berichten dat ook het invloedrijke PIMCO goud heeft gekocht tijdens de recente prijsdip. Via Fox News:

The world’s biggest bond-fund manager, Pacific Investment Management Co., is buying gold futures as it bets that global inflation rates will pick up over the next three to five years. The Pimco Commodity Real Return Strategy Fund, which has about $20 billion in assets, has increased its gold holdings to 11.5% of total assets recently, from 10.5% two months ago, and has been adding to the position when gold prices dipped toward $1,500 a troy ounce, says Nic Johnson, the fund’s co-portfolio manager. “Gold is the currency without a printing press,” Mr. Johnson says. Moreover, investors should purchase gold before inflation rates rise, as “it’s the process of going from 2% inflation to 4% inflation that’s going to drive gold higher,” he says. “We think the outlook for commodities is still positive and we think we’re still in the midst of this super cycle,” Mr. Johnson says, adding that commodity prices are set to rally for another decade.
