RJ’s comment.
February EOM DJI priced at 16.5 oz gold [20000 divided by US$1211.40]
January EOM DJI priced at 16.5 oz gold [20812 divided by US$1253.90]
Therefore the DJI actually went nowhere in February in real terms.
-
The DJI reached its peak as compared to gold in 1999, at 49 ounces.
Since that time, the DJI has fallen more than 62%.
