Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

Writing at Gcoin, the internet site of a new digital gold vendor, Ralph Benko reports that "gold" medals awarded at the Olympics are actually only about 1 percent percent gold -- sort of like the gold market at the New York Commodities Exchange. Benko's report is headlined "The Olympic Gold Medals Are Mostly Silver Because Zeus Is So Poor" and it's posted at Gcoin here:

We Are Amid the Biggest Financial Bubble in History;
When It Bursts, Bullion Owned in the Safest Way Will Protect Wealth

With GoldCore you can own allocated -- and most importantly -- segregated coins and bars in Switzerland, Singapore, and Hong Kong.

Switzerland, Singapore, and Hong Kong remain extremely safe jurisdictions for storing bullion. Avoid exchange-traded funds and digital gold providers where you are a price taker. Ensure that you are outright legal owner of your bullion. If you do not own segregated bullion that you can visit, inspect, and take delivery of, you are exposed.

Crucial guides to storage in Singapore and Switzerland can be read here:
