Between 1985 and 1988 gold climbed from $287 to $491. Then by 1990 it had fallen to $400. (according to my glance at the charts)

> CC; gold and the dollar? take a look at the dollar in the late 1980's: plummetted. what did gold do? goldsheetlinks.com As dollar went from 125-to-85, gold went from $300-to-500 in the 1985-1987 timeframe BUT then dollar went into a wide trading range 85-to-95 with gold drifting into a 350-to-400 range for a good 5 years. Wasn't until dollar started its bull run from 80-to-120 that gold got slammed down to $250. I have done the statistics on dollar vs gold and there is no significant correlation. It seems they run inverse for a few years at important turning points then drifts sideways. The three big ones: 1985-1987 gold bull 300 to 500 +60% 1996-1999 gold bear 425 to 250 -40% 2001-now gold bull 250 to 459 +80%
