RE:Gold will shine If that was a case, Gold would be hovering aroun $2,200 US per ounce by not, not sinking to below $1,800 US.
Due to a threat of Stagflation and Stagcession, Gold should be going up in value, not down.
Treasuries and bonds are nice, but their real returns are terrible in the long term as returns don't rise when market rates do.
Unlike a Savings Account, bonds go down in value when market rates are higher than the coupon rate, which is why treasures and bonds are bad investment in the long run.
Furthermore, unlike a Savings Account, bond interest is not compounded.
