International gold flows and U S buying mood prompt outlook
England ships about 25 million in gold, with further exports unlikely as London rates rise. Gold moves to Canada reach 7 million seasonally due to Canadian wheat purchases. Federal Reserve reports show higher gold holdings and reserve ratios. An American loan of 1.5 million to the Vatican is arranged in bank credit at 4.9 percent. Purchasing power appears unimpaired as Americans spend on World Series and football games. The future hinges on when demand declines.
