Gold's Divergence Between the Paper and Physical Markets [View article]
If gold and oil rise and fall together, what happens when we eventually move away from oil, and start using alternative sources of energy? Will gold actually be valuated on supply and demand, instead of being bulked in with the rest of the commodities? I just do not understand how gold is being pushed down so fast when our government is printing out money like it is made from the Monopoly game. By the time our government bails everyone out and gets done printing out these BILLIONS of dollars, why will the U.S. $ be worth anything? And wont this send the price of gold through the roof?
