CFA HOSTS JULY 17 PRESS CONFERENCE ON GOLD

Did you know:
* Gold is so pliable it can be made into sewing thread! One ounce can be stretched to 50 miles!
* The Greeks believed it was a dense combination of water and sunlight!
* Gold is so rare, the world pours more steel in one hour than all the gold ever poured in the history of civilization.
* It is rare on Earth and rare in the universe. And, it was not created by exploding supernovas!

Curious as to where it came from? Join us this Wednesday to find out.
