[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 1174873, member: 26030"]You're right ... I was off by a year ... it was 2008, not 2009. Gold reached a peak of a $1020 in March 2008 then got close to $1000 again in July 2008 then dropped to $720 by November 2008 That's a $300 drop from $1020 ... or a 30% drop ... in 8 months. [ATTACH]122307.vB[/ATTACH] I know it doesnt look like much of a blip on the chart -- but at the time it was a big deal. I remember all the Gold bears on CNBC saying how gold was crashing and a terrible investment. That was just a bit over 2 years ago. Since then gold has more than doubled from $720 to nearly $1500. Just for comparison sake, silver just had a 30% correction from it's high of $50 ... in [B]4 DAYS[/B]! :eek:[/QUOTE]
