Allan,

I have been struggling with the price of gold and deflation. If the rest of the world starts to worry about US deflation they will dump our bonds. At some point in time our trading partners will quit lowering the prices of their goods. I think we are in uncharted waters with the large trade deficit, government debt at all levels, corporate debt and personal debt racked up during the 90's. If the world dumps our bond interest rates will go through the roof and the US$ should tank under these conditions. With gold being sensitive to country currency fluctuations gold should be ok in the US and probably have lower prices in other countries relative to their currency value.

Just trying to think through possible scenarios.

Joan
