Nope gold is often over priced and its price usually has no basis in reality. The central bankers, sovereign nations, and speculators determine the price of gold and it has no relationship with reality.

As I say if you believe in gold you also believe the folks who actually control the price of the stuff will somehow muddle through and the world economy will more or less survive intact. I don't that's why I have not bought any in years..

The “world economy” is not Gold based.

Gold is reality, and fiat is pipe dreams.

None of the “Real Equity” class envision themselves without gold. They are driven to somehow acquire all of it.
