2025 gold $3500, oil $70 = fifty times.

1999 gold $300, oil $20 = fifteen times.

1980 gold $600, oil $40 = fifteen times.

1970 gold $35, oil $3.50 = ten times.

Since gold is made from oil, fifty times oil is far too expensive. Either oil is going to zoom in price to $200, or gold is going to $1000 (or less if oil goes down). Or a bit of both. If USD halves in value, which could easily happen in a rush or by proclamation, then oil would be $140 and gold $2,000.

Gold went all the way down from $600 to $300 over twenty years while oil fell from $40 to $20. Interest rates and the mighty USD became great again. But then Alan Greenspan introduced pixilated pixelation with irrational exuberance. The rest is history. And here we are, borrow and hope tapped out, despite BBB irrational exuberance. Zimbabwe beckons.

Re Message 35185318 from MQ linking gold to oil, he might as well tagging semiconductor to sand, tying electricity to water, or to sunshine, wrapping money to paper, and transforming war to peace :0)))

Am guessing MQ has no gold
