Because you’ve already heard of BHP Billiton, here’s a compendium of 12 of the more important gold producers in Australia right now in 2012.

The year is 2012 and it is time for you to get some Kenya in your portfolio. Kenya has one of the most rapidly-growing GDPs.
Over the weekend the World Bank sent out a tweet about Kenya’s “tipping point” – by 2020, Kenya will be a full-fledged middle-class country. Since 2001, many gains have been made [...]

Last week we were surprised to see a 25 basis point rate cut by Australia – whose inflation and unemployment levels are in a healthy range – so to now see that even China has cut interest rates, well, that’s telling you something significant about the weakness and risks facing global growth.

It’s a great time to buy gold. It’s always a good time to buy gold, of course, but right now you get a little bit of a dip. Gold is off 17% from highs it saw last August 2011. Right now it sits at just $1572 an ounce.
