re: #120 Shropshire Slasher

Gold is not much higher than it was in the beginning of July 2011 when it peaked after a sharp rise to about $1,900, dropped, then rose to $1,800 in a dead-cat bounce in January 2012, then dropped back to about $1,200 (where it was before the sudden rise in July), and has been hunting around there until recently.

In the last few days it’s off from it’s peak of $2,060 on Aug 7, currently as of the latest update $2,035. (courtesy of my Kitco app on my computer)

My safe deposit box is wealthier.

I wonder how much of this is inflation, and how much of it is speculation driven by Covid-19 fears?
