In a wide-ranging look at the history and present of the barbarous relic, CBC's Ann-Marie MacDonald has gathered many perspectives (pro and con) on gold. The following documentary moves from historical shipwrecks to Nazi 'death gold' and England's war chest to recent years where widespread economic uncertainty has given the yellow metal a "new lustre in the world of high finance." Valued for its permanence, beauty and scarcity, people will lie, cheat, steal and kill in the name of gold; and the clip provides color on many of the market manipulations of the last few years. As MacDonald says, whether it's a few gold coins or gold bars stored in one of the many vaults around the world, many investors are taking a shine to gold. But there's not a lot of it. It is said that, even melted down, there would not be enough to fill 3 Olympic swimming pools. Some claim that much of the gold held by the Bank of Canada, the Bank of England, the Federal Reserve and Fort Knox is gone - that for every 100 ounces of gold traded, there exists only one ounce of real, physical gold. So, where is the gold - and who really owns it?

Just watched part one and she actually said, "Even melted down, all the gold ever found is only enough to fill three Olympic swimming pools."

Just thought I'd mention that...

I just have this nagging feeling that at some point once all these paper manipulations of gold and silver gets out in the open and something is done about it that gold and silver is going to skyrocket...

Thanks for the clips also Northerncoins,

China and India wealthiest are buying gold by the pounds each one of them, I think this is part of the reason that the manipulators aren't seeing the prices continue dropping. I know there are many Chinese buying gold and the real estate here in the good old US of A, because these group have became rich over the past ten years in booming China real estate, now they want to park part of their nests in gold when it doesn't pay to have money in the banks.

And it has to be physical gold! Not paper.
