who needs gold when you can have oil. If stories about peak oil return gold will not be far behind.

It’s the manipulated paper price for gold. Bears no relation to reality when it comes to physical gold...or silver for that matter.

Yes there is Peak Oil. Especially when you are not allowed to drill for any. There’s Peak Coal and Gas too. And Peak Food.

where should have the physical price of gold been before? my 1st thought about this is that monied people must see the monetary crisis subdsiding, so gold is looking less like a good hedge.... but, I’m from Missouri, so someone needs to Show-Me.

I think there is trouble in the international settlement markets and if you don’t have the cash, you sell what you can sell and that is gold.

I expect Peak oil to take the back burner for the next few years as alternate energy products / better mileage autos start hitting the market (backed by government tax breaks/subsidies). Slow down in emerging economy’s will also push down oil demand.
