<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikenoodle, post: 822305, member: 307&quot;]I am trying to understand not argue so bear with me here...</p><p><br /></p><p>Isn&#039;t it the same market forces that recover the price back to $1000 faster now that drive the other markets?</p><p><br /></p><p>My point is that although markets may recover previous levels, I don&#039;t think that they recover value. As you said, the 1980 $1000 value is much higher than the current $1000 value, but if as you say the markets will now recover faster, the recovery of value happens faster. </p><p><br /></p><p>I say that if there was a bubble, even if the market re-gains its level, it will never recover value as compared to the other markets. Bubbles build on price that is higher than actual value, hence why they burst. When they finally burst, the value becomes more equivalent to the actual value. $1000 value gold didn&#039;t exist in 1980, and probably doesn&#039;t now, but people will pay that much for it and so the market gold price is what it is, the value is what it is, and relative to other assets if you retain the gold, you may be forgoing a better ROI elsewhere.</p><p><br /></p><p>Am I getting your point?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
