I had an F&C newsletter come through yesterday with predictions for the year ahead that I thought might be of interest - particularly no.5 to the gold fans!

1) Euro still to be weak
2)Increase in M&A activity
3) High yield stocks to perform
4) US 10 year bonds to fall
5) Gold to remain attractive
6) More QE
7) Larger companies to outperform small
8) Market peak in first half of 2011
9) Trade/currency wars to intensify
10) Euro crisis to escalate
