Actually gold, silver, oil, copper, etc. are not going up, it just looks like that because they are retaining thier value as the dollar becomes worth less.<<<

Welcome to the thread, thanks for joining in.

Do you remember the old days, when you could see at a glance what was going on, I mean if the stock market went down, gold went up, next time it would be the gold dropping as the stocks went up.

Then about 20 years ago something changed and it was not so clear cut.

I do not. I've only been watching the market for about 20 years at most

I used to think this was due to technological changes, but in reality it probably had more to do with the huge amount of debt we've taken on.
