Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

London metals trader Andrew Maguire tells King World News today that HSBC's announcement that it is closing its London gold vaults -- what the bank now is calling its "retail safe-deposit facilities" -- with only 60 days' notice is forcing some customers to sell their metal. Maguire suspects that this is the bank's intent. An excerpt from his interview is posted at the KWN blog here:

Own Allocated -- and Most Importantly --
Segregated Coins and Bars In Switzerland

Zurich, Switzerland, remains an extremely safe location for storing coins and bars of the monetary metals. If you do not own segregated physical coins and bars that you can visit, inspect, and take delivery of, you are vulnerable. International diversification remains vital to investors.

GoldCore can accomplish this for you.
