but KT, to put that in perspective, annual cash yield over the entire 20th century was something like 4.1% nominal, 0.8% real. cash held from 1900 thru 1999 was a 57-bagger. so people need to keep that in mind when talking about the wonders of zero-yield gold vs. cash.

the difference today is that cash yields are negative in real terms, and low in nominal terms.
