<p>[QUOTE="InfleXion, post: 1225930, member: 29012"]I can't think of any questions really. I understand where you're coming from, but for better or worse it's just not my perspective. I think the timeframe piece is where our divergence comes from. I look at things like the DOW/Gold ratio over the last 100 years, so a couple years to me isn't a very long time to establish something. It would be a bit more difficult to do accurate metal trending as compared to currency over 100 years instead of 10 since there were so many changes to how gold was valued and how it was used, but I feel like 10 years of the same policy is a good way to evaluate the current trend. Can you argue that the trend is not entirely due to what the dollar is doing, most certainly. I would say currency in general is more of an indicator than just the dollar, and the supply/demand impacts are growing as of late, but from a bird's eye view is where I am coming from in my previous posts. When looking at longer term trends I actually prefer not to take into consideration every individual situation (although I find them interesting to follow, and base my 'gut feeling' on the sum of my research), because there are always more factors than one can know, and they aren't always rational.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
