> 82 was post-1929 depression highs for the ratio

I used to have daily gold and silver prices back to 1974 on my computer,
but they got lost in a hard drive reformatting accident ;)

> However, P&F charts show gold in a bull, silver in a bear

Long-term I am bullish on gold and neutral on silver.
I think gold can go up without taking silver with it for the ride.
If gold get $400-425 and silver stays about where it is,
then ratio will approach 100.

Gold has been outperforming silver for over 4 years now

Gold/Silver=Ratio
299.40/7.00=41.25 (5 Feb 98)
313.50/4.48=70.00 (now)

AU is +4.7%, AG is -36.0%

Your wrote: CRB seems to be behaving differently now than in 1982"...aaaaaa. yes, that's true. Especially if one takes into account the changes in the COMPONENTS of the index, let alone the WEIGHTING OF the different components.

You can thank the Fed Reserve for the whispers in the proper ears everytime inflation began to show up in the index.
