Sure they will sell US assets in order to raise capital to shore up their own economies.

But would you withdraw your entire IRA merely to stuff the proceeds in your mattress?

No. You withdraw enough, suffering the opportunity cost, in order to make that monthly payment on your interest free credit card, and leave the rest where it can draw 5% return.

And gold will win when every other storehouse of value has become unstable. When the US is forced to devalue the dollar, that may be the time to own gold.

But right now, the USD is appreciating.
