<p>[QUOTE=&quot;InfleXion, post: 1240282, member: 29012&quot;]The key difference here is that you can&#039;t conjure physical gold and silver out of thin air like paper stocks which split regularly, which is the reason why they are stores of value. For one because they can&#039;t be manipulated (paper market is another story) so the intrinsic value remains supported, and subsequently because people know the supply can&#039;t be manipulated it is more appealing than other things that can be. Precious metals are about the only thing that fit into this category that are also fungible, meaning no matter what state the element is in it has the same fractional base value.</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as the super cycles go the 100 year DOW/Gold ratio chart shows that we are on the tail end of the swing back to the price of the DOW and gold being equivalent to each other. Some might call it a bubble, but regardless it is a clear trend that will see gold continue to rise in purchasing power (maybe not necessarily price) as long as the trend remains supported.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
