Hi John.

((Maybe I'm being way too simplistic but to me gold is only a measure of whether we are in a period of disinflation or rising inflationary pressures))

My understanding of gold is it performs well in periods of monetary instability - i.e. periods of extreme inflation/deflation. And it tends to perform poorly in periods of relatively monetary stability - i.e. moderate inflation or disinflation.
