Darleen, gold certainly was a winner in the 70s. There is no certainty that it will do so again in the naughts, but I would bet some chips that way. It was and oil was very high too. People were seeking safety in a market of true unknown direction. From here where in Southern Ca i dont see the vacant office spaces as of yet apparently there is still a strong demand for architects. That is my simple base that is called future growth. Are we overpriced here yes and that to me means inflation combine this with reduced income which it means stagnant growth at best. That has caused corporate to look elsewhere. Nadine statement in regards to the financial condition of banks leads me to believe due to currency exposure we are far less safe due to the world market exposure then we have ever been. Convert lower value currency to profit balance on US sheet and there is an additional problem. Or the converted currency already held in accounts by the Nationals if the currency takes a stiff drop in regards to the US dollar. E gads what fools Nations can be in the quest for greed we only ourselves deceive. I suppose Knighty Tin that means the chips are starting to stack up in the favour of gold.
