There are so many factors that effect gold prices its hard to know where to start. The most important one according to many is the manipulation by central banks that have been artifically suppressing the price for many years by selling into any rallies... However, the US debt causing the potential collapse of the greenback, consumption and demand in India and China... where people hold gold under their mattress and other things are what I hear are the catalysts for an increase in addition to to what you mention about global issues like bird flu...
