Wow..cannot believe this.
Why would you rather purchase metals then invest in stocks?
Golds going up, but not faster then any guaranteed investment.

Your graph is <u>extremely misleading</u>. Dividend returns of the S&P 500 are not included. You absolutely cannot imply that equity investors would be even just because the dollar value of the index is at the same level as 2000.
What is the point of this graph?
Is your point that you believe an exploitable, long-term momentum effect now exists in commodities that has not manifested itself before? Is your point that this run up in gold prices is somehow fundamentally different than any other gold bull, and implies real growth in assets? Is your point that although the price of gold (IN DOLLARS), has more than doubled, it is still undervalued? Is your point that gold is a better investment than equities because of its role as a hedge; and are you therefore predicting a bear market, something no one has ever been able to do with certain accuracy?
Please explain what you mean by "lol." It does not convince me, and I sincerely hope it does not convince others.
