Dear Mr. Sample A. Sample,

Your clients probably think about gold as an investment for tough times. But the latest State Street webcast, What’s Next for Gold?, reveals that gold can serve as a wealth-preserving investment tool in both bull and bear markets. Hear from World Gold Council, a leader in gold market intelligence, about how gold may perform throughout the remainder of 2009.

	•		How gold responded to the economic decline in 2008 and how it may respond to an economic recovery
	•		Gold’s historical performance amid infationary pressures
	•		Factors that affect the price of gold
	•		How to incorporate gold into client portfolios using SPDR® Gold Shares

Isn’t it time you learned more about gold?
