gold was not trading freely back then
gold was seized during the depression
then the govt dictated that its price would rise 60%
which ensured the banks would have capital funding
I dont have the exact figures
they are not interesting for any analysis

Homestake share price was very interesting
it serves as proof that gold rises during deflationary times
just not a clear example
since the govt became the sole owner and controller of gold

the same lesson will undoubtedly be exhibited this time around
because gold represents real money, and the bullshit occupying our wallets is green turd backed by as much hot air as my vile sphincter

times are very different compared to 1930
gold is much more owned by non-govt entities now
some nasty gash months coming for the S&P
we will next lose all the K-Autumn gains
back to the 1985-88 levels

oy veh!!!
