Perplexing ReallyGold and equities are getting crushed...I am the first to put my hands in the air and say I dont understand the price of gold. One would think the Fed announcement this week fixed everything however I dont believe they raised or lowered rates....they certainly didnt address a debt bomb that can never be paid back and perhaps a dollar that is not backed by gold should be linked to a countries ability to repay it's debts without having to get the ink and paper out again. The real interest rates with inflation is out of control....let's say negative 5 % ??? I know I finished my economics degree 30 years ago and I admit I am starting to forget things but generally if I am presented with something logical I still understand ( for a few short moments anywasy ) I don't know what happend to gold this week, why is it down?
