Gold and other precious metal prices have hit fresh highs as investors try to protect themselves against inflation and currency declines.

A number of other factors, such as demand from jewellery makers, are also contributing to create what some investors are calling a commodity boom.

Gold rose as far as $508.50 an ounce, its best since 1983, before giving up some gains to trade at $506.66.

Platinum prices are near 26-year highs, while silver set an 18-year best.

Commodity prices do not seem to be running out of steam and analysts are predicting more gains in coming months.
