Good point.. But low rates are indicative of deflation, not inflation. Low rates are an attempt to create inflation, and most of the inflation we had last year was based on borrowed gov't money.

Look when Gold last shined, back in the '80's.. Interest rates were double digits and inflation nearly out of control..

But while inflation may not be the threat in the US, it definitely is a concern in emerging markets, where borrowing cheap dollars in a carry trade increases their inflationary pressures.

So yes.. someday you may be right.. maybe sooner than later.. I'll watch the charts for signs of that taking hold in the PM markets.

C2, note the pounding of gold. The sooth line is still way below the current hunting price. I have kindly helped the price to decline to the correct level. I picked the top to within a few cents at $184.47 and within a few minutes. Picked or created - I suppose the algorithms saw the enormous sell order come in and panicked. Look out below. finance.yahoo.com What a gorgeous graph.

It's nice to be a gold buyer. I feel part of the club now, you, me, TJ, the rest..... should we get some new gold chants to do? I can't wait to buy my first official Tonka Truckload of gold. We need a big bonfire and singing and dancing. Woohoo.....
