I think you would find that the increase in disposable goods (which we could now
include as just about everything),which is your industrial companies, would run close
parallel to the markets. Unfortunately gold is not a disposable good. Some has been lost
only to be found a hundred years later at the bottom of the ocean and did not deteriorate
in quality. A truly non-disposable. This, for centuries was the great appeal of the yellow
and therefor held a higher value in relation to other goods. To possess something that was
indestructible when life was short lent the feeling to ones own life. Compare the
possession of gold to life expectancy in India. Life expectancy is continually increasing
in wealthy countries so that psychological effect has waned. So an non-disposables in a
world hell bent on producing disposable at an ever increasing rate isn't going to catch the
big buck for long. Still looking for those blips in gold price when they come.
