<<inflation can make gold go up short term but then with inflation interest rates rise and money starts flowing into interest vehicles.>> Can you document this? I can't but seem to remember an environment where gold went up as the same time as interest rates. What you seem to be overlooking is 'expectations' - in other words people will not necessarily invest in interest vehicles if they expect inflation to continue to increase - but in this scenario they would likely invest in gold. dd

If I remember recent history correctly, during the 70's we saw a ratching higher of gold then rates then back again, with oil & the rest of the commodities thrown into the mix. There was a like example in HM stock (as a proxy for gold price) during late 28. cheers
