Schiff: Why the Pain for Gold Has Just Begun

Gold, Peter Schiff said in a recent interview with CNBC ,Gold is one of the few avenues available to investors as a store of value in a world where major central banks are determined to fight economic weakness with ultra-accommodative monetary policy. "What are you going to do? You're going to hold dollars at zero percent with (Fed Chairman) Ben Bernanke promising to print until infinity?" Schiff added that people "could make a lot of money in gold and gold stocks if they are patient. But unfortunately there's money on Wall Street that's not patient, and I advise other people who understand the fundamentals" to stay put, he said. - via CNBC
