Gold price rebounds ahead of US inflation data Staff Writer
We all know the adage, 'what goes up must come down', but when it comes to gold I think we will see it exceed its former high soon enough if things don't normalize and settle down.

It's great to see a company with such longevity continuing on when we see so many who don't, so a big congrats to them. ...
