John, I "noodle" it too with the same questions. I do believe gold rose during the great depression, but do not remember why?

I think, though, that this deficit dilemma may trump the variable of a bear market i.e. a bear market should cause the dollar to fall and if the dollar falls gold and base metals should rise irrespective of the bear mkt.

But I also get caught up in conundrums e.g. if they raise interest rates that should bolster the dollar, but would also exacerbate the bear market.

I have seen no one who has worked their way through this puzzle to my satisfaction.
