About Gold
The price of gold is determined
through trading in the gold and derivatives markets, but a procedure
known as the
Gold Fixing in London,
originating in September 1919, provides a daily benchmark price to the
industry. The
afternoon fixing was introduced in 1968 to provide a price when US markets are open.
Historically gold coinage was
widely used as currency; when paper money was introduced, it typically
was a
receipt redeemable for gold coin
or bullion. In a monetary system known as the gold standard, a certain
weightgold was given the name of a unit of currency. For a long period,
the United States government set the value of
the US dollar so that one troy
ounce was equal to $20.67 ($664.56/kg), but in 1934 the dollar was
devalued to
$35.00 per troy ounce
($1125.27/kg). By 1961, it was becoming hard to maintain this price, and
a pool of US and
European banks agreed to
manipulate the market to prevent further currency devaluation against
increased gold
demand.

On March 17, 1968, economic
circumstances caused the collapse of the gold pool, and a two-tiered
pricing
scheme was established whereby
gold was still used to settle international accounts at the old $35.00
per troy
ounce ($1.13/g) but the price of
gold on the private market was allowed to fluctuate; this two-tiered
pricing system
was abandoned in 1975 when the
price of gold was left to find its free-market level. Central banks still
hold
historical gold reserves as a
store of value although the level has generally been declining. The
largest gold
depository in the world is that
of the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank in New York, which holds about 3% of
the gold
ever mined, as does the similarly
laden U.S. Bullion Depository at Fort Knox. In 2005 the World Gold
Council
estimated total global gold
supply to be 3,859 tonnes and demand to be 3,754 tonnes, giving a
surplus of 105
tonnes.
Since 1968 the price of gold has
ranged widely, from a high of $850/oz ($27,300/kg) on January 21, 1980,
to a low
of $252.90/oz ($8,131/kg) on June
21, 1999 (London Gold Fixing). The period from 1999 to 2001 marked the
"Brown Bottom" after a 20-year
bear market. Prices increased rapidly from 1991, but the 1980 high was
not
exceeded until January 3, 2008
when a new maximum of $865.35 per troy ounce was set. Another record
price
was set on March 17, 2008 at
$1023.50/oz ($32,900/kg). In late 2009, gold markets experienced renewed
momentum upwards due to increased
demand and a weakening US dollar. On December 2, 2009, Gold passed
the important barrier of US$1200
per ounce to close at $1215. Gold further rallied hitting new highs in
May 2010
after the European Union debt
crisis prompted further purchase of gold as a safe asset. On March 1,
2011, gold hit
a new all-time high of $1432.57,
based on investor concerns regarding ongoing unrest in North Africa as
well as in
the Middle East.
Crude Oil
The petroleum industry is
involved in the global processes of exploration, extraction, refining,
transporting (often
with oil tankers and pipelines),
and marketing petroleum products. The largest volume products of the
industry are
fuel oil and petrol . Petroleum
is also the raw material for many chemical products, including
pharmaceuticals,
solvents, fertilizers,
pesticides, and plastics. The industry is usually divided into three
major components:
upstream, midstream and
downstream. Midstream operations are usually included in the downstream
category.
Petroleum is vital to many
industries, and is of importance to the maintenance of industrialized
civilization itself,
and thus is critical concern to
many nations. Oil accounts for a large percentage of the world's energy
consumption, ranging from a low
of 32% for Europe and Asia, up to a high of 53% for the Middle East.
Other
geographic regions' consumption
patterns are as follows: South and Central America (44%), Africa (41%),
and
North America (40%). The world at
large consumes 30 billion barrels (4.8 km³) of oil per year, and the
top oil
consumers largely consist of
developed nations. In fact, 24% of the oil consumed in 2004 went to the
States alone,
though by 2007 this had dropped
to 21% of world oil consumed. In
the US, in the states of Arizona,
CaliforniaPetroleum Association (WSPA) represents companies responsible for producing, distributing, refinand
marketing petroleum. This non-profit traassociation in the United States.

Equity Index CFD
Contracts for Difference (CFDs) are 'Over the Counter' trading products that
allow traders to trade based on the movement of an underlying product.
e.g the LEXUSVENTURE.com UK100 CFD gives exposure to the price
movement of the UK 100 Index
futures contract, with the advantage of
leverage.
Equity index CFD trading operates in largely the same way as currency
trading. Both products have a bid and ask price, you can go short or long,
and the same types of orders apply to both products.
However, equity index CFD contracts have an expiry date because they
derive their price from a
corresponding index futures product

The Foreign Exchange market
is also referred to as the "Forex" or "FX" market. It's traded much
like
any other financial instrument,
using a combination of fundamental and technical analysis. Forex market
is the largest financial market in
the world, with a daily average turnover of US$3.2 trillion and a true
24-hour market . About 5% of daily
turnover is from companies and governments that buy or sell
products and services in a foreign
country or must convert profits made in foreign currencies into their
domestic currency. The other 95%
is trading for profit, or speculation.
Forex Market
Over the past few years, LEXUS
VENTURE LTD. has paid close attention to Forex Market, Crude Oil,
Spot Metals (Gold and Silver), Equity Index CFD.
According to the Bank for
International Settlements, as of April 2010, average daily turnover in
global foreign
exchange markets is estimated at
$3.98 trillion, a growth of approximately 20% over the $3.21 trillion
daily volume
as of April 2007. Some firms
specializing on foreign exchange market had put the average daily
turnover in
excess of US$4 trillion.
Foreign exchange trading increased
by 20% between April 2007 and April 2010 and has more than doubled since
2004.[8] The increase in turnover
is due to a number of factors: the growing importance of foreign
exchange as an
asset class, the increased trading
activity of high-frequency traders, and the emergence of retail
investors as an
important market segment. The
growth of electronic execution methods and the diverse selection of
execution
venues have lowered transaction
costs, increased market liquidity, and attracted greater participation
from many
customer types. In particular,
electronic trading via online portals has made it easier for retail
traders to trade in
the foreign exchange market. By
2010, retail trading is estimated to account for up to 10% of spot FX
turnover, or
$150 billion per day.
Why Forex appeals to investors?
Liquidity. High liquidity is a powerful
attractive force for any investor, because it provides freedom to
open or close a position of any size at a current market rate.
Continuous access. It's a true 24-hour market.
Participants do not have to wait to react to any event, as
is usual with many other markets.
Flexible control. A position on Forex may be opened for just the period of time desired by the trader.
Cost. Forex traditionally does not have any commissions except for natural market spread between bid
and ask.
Unambiguous quotations. The
majority of trades may be executed at a uniform market price because of
the high liquidity of the
market. It allows to avoid the instability inherent to futures and other
currency
investments where only limited
amounts of currencies may be sold at the market rate at a given time. |
