Lkorrow,

re: "De, sounds like gold might be tracking inflation then..."

Perhaps. My first thought was that gold's price is a function of inflation. But it's not that simple. Gold is a function of other things as well - most notably, people's expection ... of FUTURE inflation; ... of future wealth confiscation by government(s); ... of future need to bribe officials; etc.

Besides that, investing in something that tracks inflation during a time of high inflation is pretty smart. In fact, it's what wealth preservation is all about.

Gold is $1,581/oz today. When it hits $2,000, it will be up 26.5%. Let's see how long that takes. - De 3/11/2013 - ANSWER: 7 Years, 5 Months
