if i'm not mistaken, Dabchick's world gold price is an average of the gold price in different currencies. with 'real price' i mean gold's ratio to other commodities. a good proxy for this is the gold/copper ratio, which has been declining since late 2003 ( almost exactly concurrent with the peak of the yield curve steepening from '00-'03 ) . in a true gold bull market phase, this ratio should be rising ( i.e., gold's price relative to copper should be increasing ) . iow, the 2005-2006 gold rally is largely a reflection of excess liquidity spilling into gold, whereas the 2000-2003 rally was the real McCoy.
