<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 1159699, member: 15199&quot;]I agree that the US dollar does play a part in precious metals, but no one can be sure if it is the dominant reason. Since 8/8/10 ( limit of my chart ) until market close today 4/19/11, the USD index has fallen from 80.51 to 75.27,&nbsp; or -6.5%.</p><p><br /></p><p>Gold futures have risen in the same period from $1208 to $1495, a gain of +23%, and there are many periods that could be chosen to show a reverse relationship, and where both fell or both gained. IMO, there are more factors playing a part that are not measurable or considered. If it was a direct relationship, gold would be $1286.</p><p><br /></p><p>JIm[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
