	LONDON GOLD FIXING RITUAL
		The participants at the first fixing were from Rothschild, which chaired the meeting and every subsequent one, Mocatta and Goldsmid, Pixley andAbell, Samuel Montagu and Co. and Sharps Wilkins.
		International gold trading is an around-the-clock business, with the London Market overlapping those of the Far East in the morning and New York in the afternoon.
		Gold's performance this week, staying above the breakout point of US$400after falling back from a recent high near US$419, is a sign that quite a struggle is taking place between the bugs and the bears.

	The Gold Market, Part 1
		Gold is only one of many commodities that over the years have served as money--as a medium of exchange--in international trade and financial transactions.
		Even though immediately before and after a fixing gold trading will continue at prices that may vary from the fixing price, the fixing price is an important benchmark in the gold market because much of the daily trading volume goes through at the fixing price.
		During the early years of the gold pool, it came to be believed that there was a deficiency of international reserves and that more reserves had to be created by legal fiat to enable reserve-holders to diversify out of the U.S. dollar and gold.

	The Week in Gold -- 2000
		Gold was fixed little changed at $264.30 in London Monday morning; the influence of currency markets on prices appeared to have faded somewhat, but traders were still cautious in case of any major change in exchange rates and uncertain over the US election and volatility in equities.
		Gold lease rates showed a stronger tone over the week, with the market suggesting that the higher prices were encouraging a rise in producer hedging; over this period the one-month rate rose sharply from 0.35% to 0.75% and the 12-month rate from 1.20% to 1.50%.
		Gold was fixed at $283.50 on Monday morning, and climbed to a spot high of $284.75 in London - the highest level of the week - before easing back as the US stock market showed no signs of repeating the volatility that had marked trading the previous week.

	Complaint
		Gold's use in ordinary domestic coinage ended in 1934 with the monetary measures of the New Deal, including the devaluation of the dollar from $20.67/ounce to $35/ounce and a general prohibition on the ownership of gold by United States citizens.
		Gold producers often borrow gold through their bullion banks and sell it forward in order to earn the contango on some portion of their future production as well as to gain a measure of protection against falling prices.
		Gold derivatives, like other over-the-counter derivatives, are generally measured by their notional values, which are the face or reference amounts from which derivative payments are determined.
