Interview of
George Milling-Stanley
Director of Corporate Communications
for the World Gold Trust Services.




GOLD CONTINUING ITS STUNNING CLIMB, HITTING A 26-YEAR HIGH AGAIN TODAY IN
LONDON. PRICES CONTINUED TO GAIN ON INFLATION CONCERNS.

GOLD, BY THE WAY, AS SURGED 72% IN THE PAST YEAR ALONE. $728.50 AN OUNCE.
JOINING US IS THE DIRECTOR OF THE WORLD GOLD TRUST SERVICES WHICH SPONSORS THE
STREETTRACKS GOLD TRUST AN ETF THAT HIT A RECORD LEVEL YESTERDAY.  THAT FUND UP
68% IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS, UP OVER 35% THIS PAST YEAR.

IT'S GREAT TO HAVE YOU HERE AND IF YOU'RE INVESTED IN GOLD, YOU'RE DOING REALLY
WELL. HOW HIGH CAN IT GO IN YOUR FROM HERE?

>> I THINK IT CAN GO RATHER HIGH. COPPER IS UP TWO OR THREE TIMES, GOLD IS UP
72%, AS YOU SAY, BUT IT'S ONLY UP 180% IN THE PAST FIVE YEARS.

>> WHY IS GOLD LAGGING ALL THE OTHER COMMODITIES

>> I THINK THE OTHER COMMODITIES WERE MORE OF A CHINA STORY.  CHINESE
CONSUMPTION IS IMPORTANT TO GOAL, BUT NOT NEAR AS IMPORTANT AS THE OTHER METALS.

>> AT THIS POINT WHAT IS FUELING THE PRIZE IN GOLD

>> I THINK INVESTORS ARE COMING TO REALIZE THE INVESTMENT POSITIVES IN THEIR
PORTFOLIOS.

>> WE TALKED AS A GREAT HEDGE AGAINST INNATION, HEDGE AGAINST STORIES IN THE
GLOBAL FIRMENTE.






>> IT'S A HEDGE AGAINST THE DOLLAR.  IT'S A HEDGE AGAINST INFLATION, IT'S A
HEDGE AGAINST GEO POLITICAL TENSIONS.  SO THOSE ARE THE REAL REASONS WHY GOLD
HAS BEEN GOING UP FOR FIVE YEARS AND PROBABLY WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO.

>> SO YOU DON'T THINK IT'S CRAZY WHEN YOU SEE THE LEVELS THAT GOLD IS HIT
AGAINST THIS POINT?

>> I VAN AROUND THAT WHEN NOMINAL GOLD REACHED $850 AN OUNCE, AND PEOPLE SAID,
WE'RE GETTING CLOSE TO THE ALL-TIME HIGH. TODAY GOLD WOULD HAVE TO BE OVER
$2,000 AN OUNCE. SO THERE'S A LONG, LONG WAY TO GO YET.

>> DID YOU GIVE ME A TARGET?

>> NO.

>> DO YOU WANT TO?

>> NO.  THEN I WOULD BE MAKING A FORECAST AND THAT WOULDN'T BE A GOOD IDEA.

>> BUT WHEN PEOPLE THROW OUT TARGETS OF $1,000 AN OUNCE, THAT DOESN'T SOUND
CRAZY TO YOU

>> THAT WOULD STILL ONLY BE HALF THE ALL-TIME HIGH THAT IT REACHED 25 YEARS AGO.

>> THIS IS A FIVE-YEAR CHART OF GOLD. WE SAW A LOT OF TECH NAMES BACK IN THE
LATE 1990'S. DIFFERENT STORY OBVIOUSLY WITH GOLD, BUT YOU SEE A LOT OF ROOM FOR
-- MORE ROOM TO THE UPSIDE?

>> I THINK SO, WE'RE LOOKING AT SOMETHING THAT HAS NOT DOUBLED IN PRICE.

>> WHAT COULD UNDO GOLD?

>> OH, IF THERE WERE A SUNDAY OUTBREAK IN WORLD PEACE, I THINK THAT WOULD
PROBABLY BE BAD FOR THE GOLD MARKET IMMEDIATELY. BUT IT WOULD THEN RECOVER
BECAUSE MORE AND MORE PEOPLE WOULD FEEL COMFORTABLE BUYING GOLD JEWELRY, IF THE
STOCK MARKET WERE SUDDENLY TO GO BACK UP TO THE KIND OF PACE OF GROWTH WE SAW IN
THE LATE 1990'S, EARLY 2000.

>> IF THE INFLATION CONCERNS SEEM TO SUBSIDE IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS OR
SOMETHING. COULD WE SEE A SIGNIFICANT PULL





BACK IN GOLD

>> I THINK WE MIGHT, BUT IT'S NOT JUST THE ABSOLUTE NUMBERS IN INFLATION,
INFLATION IS GONE FROM 1% TO BETWEEN 3% AND 4%. THAT DOESN'T TERRIFY PEOPLE BUT
THE DIRECTION IS STIRRING AND THE SPEED IS DUSH -- DISTURBING.

>> YOU'VE GOT GOLD STOCKS.

>> THERE'S NO BAD WAY TO INVEST IN GOLD. THEY HAVE ALL BENEFITED, GOLD OPTIONS
FUTURES, THE WHOLE THING. WE TALKED TO A LOT OF INVESTORS THREE, FOUR YEARS AGO
AS TO WHAT EXACTLY WOULD ENCOURAGE THEM TO COME INTO THE MARKET AND THEY SAID IF
YOU COULD GIVE US A PURE PROXY FOR THE GOLD PRICE AND TAKE ALL THE FRICTION OUT
OF OWNING PHYSICAL GOLD AND SO WE CAME UP WITH STREETTRACKS GOLD STAIRS. YOU CAN
GET ALL THE INFORMATION ON STREETTRACKS GOLD SHARES.COM. WE THOUGHT WE WOULD BE
GETTING GOOD RETURN IF WE DID IT IN THREE -- EIGHT MONTHS AND WE DID IT IN THREE
YEARS.

>> SO GO, GO, ON GOLD

>> I'M GO, GO ON GOLD.
