I hope that graph is not showing that the more money the government prints the lower the relative worth of gold goes. If so, we are in big trouble. <g> By the way, do you happen to have a similar graph for silver? If you do, I would love to see it.

So, should gold track the CPI? Or money supply? Gold is international - how do you account for all the currency around the world in the equation? We may be well below the 1980 peak in CPI-adjusted gold price, but that peak was very brief. To return to such a peak, one would have to expect a pretty serious failure of confidence again. I agree that it could very well happen, but I'm not into betting on valuation extremes on the basis of rare events. I'm more into betting on mean reversions that extrema. BC
