COMMENT: Thanks to your trustworthy evaluation of gold. Every time somebody talks about gold and inflation, they don’t seem to be correct analysts however mouth the identical propaganda that has been prevalent for the reason that fall of Bretton Woods. I mentioned this with our economics division, they usually mentioned you’re appropriate. The amount of cash idea has turn out to be irrelevant. Gold has rallied into March, as Socrates projected.
Nicely achieved.

REPLY: Sure, I get increasingly requests from universities all over the world that they know what they train not works. It could be simpler to elucidate how issues work than it’s to get individuals to ignore what they’ve been taught. I’ve proposals now. They need to translate the books I’ve written into Italian, German, and Spanish, only for starters, to be taught in faculties all over the world. The gold-only crowd continually preaches the identical factor. Oh, the debt is rising, and the cash provide is increasing, so purchase gold.
Nicely, gold reached $875 in 1980, and the Nationwide Debt was $1 trillion. If gold responded to debt or inflation, why is it not at $30,000 as a substitute of testing $3,000? When will they begin to report the reality behind what gold is all about? They burn so many individuals as a result of what they put out is a faith, not evaluation.
Nothing goes up without end, and nothing goes down without end. There’s NO STORE OF VALUE as a result of every little thing rises and falls. They don’t even perceive that when gold is cash, it too rises and falls as a result of it’s on the other facet of the dimensions with belongings on the opposite facet. All markets transfer like a pendulum – forwards and backwards. The bulk MUST at all times be improper at each extremes for that’s the power that propels the make to maneuver in the other way.
Simply have a look at the all of the panics through the nineteenth century. Gold declined in buying energy into the booms and rose through the declines, simply because the greenback does at present. We name it money is king.
