The Current Market Atmosphere: Easy Money Hard to Come by

Mike, I couldn't have said it any better myself. Kudos for a great article.

Gold Prices in for Short-Term Rise, According to 'Gold to Oil Ratio'

I posted a new image of the historical gold to oil ratio on Raw Greed.

Using the Gold to Oil Ratio to Monitor Gold Equity Investments

Arcturus, there has been a historical relationship of oil to gold. They tend to rise in line with each other. The article is meant to point out that gold has potential upside to $1200 levels for the 10:1 ratio to hold true. I've written and invested in NXG in the past.

Johngonole, the September 2006 article points out that I suspected gold would continue to rise. You are correct that inflation and hyperinflation will cause both gold and oil to rise. The articles objective is to point out that oil was/is rising dramatically out of line compared to gold.
