Finally, it has come to our
attention that the University of Texas Endowment… one
of the largest in the nation… has chosen to buy gold
bullion and did so some while back at the behest of Mr.
Kyle Bass, noted hedge fund manager and a member of
the Endowment’s Board of Directors. Some shall argue
that this may mark the top for gold. We shall argue
otherwise. The top will come with the endowment funds
of the smaller colleges and universities openly own gold.
They don’t and they are not even close to making that
decision. From our position of authority on two goodly
sized endowment funds we know that few if any
endowments have even discussed owning gold, and
fewer still actually own any. When the $10 million
endowments own gold, that shall be the top. When
billion dollar endowments own gold the race is perhaps
only just beginning.
