COMMENT: Thanks on your trustworthy evaluation of gold. Each time somebody talks about gold and inflation, they aren’t correct analysts however mouth the identical propaganda that has been prevalent for the reason that fall of Bretton Woods. I mentioned this with our economics division, they usually stated you’re appropriate. The amount of cash idea has turn out to be irrelevant. It has rallied into March, as Socrates projected.
Nicely accomplished.

REPLY: Sure, I get increasingly more requests from universities around the globe that they know what they train not works. It might be simpler to elucidate how issues work than it’s to get folks to ignore what they’ve been taught. I’ve proposals now. They wish to translate the books I’ve written into Italian, German, and Spanish, only for starters, to be taught in colleges around the globe. The gold-only crowd continually preaches the identical factor. Oh, the debt is rising, and the cash provide is increasing, so however gold.
Nicely, gold reached #875 in 1980, and the Nationwide Debt was $1 trillion. If gold responded to debt or inflation, why is it not at $30,000 as an alternative of testing $3,000? When will they begin to report the reality behind what gold is all about? They burn so many individuals as a result of what they put out is a faith, not evaluation.
Nothing goes up for everybody, and nothing goes down ceaselessly. There may be NO STORE OF VALUE as a result of every little thing rises and falls. They don’t even perceive that when gold is cash, it too rises and falls as a result of it’s on the alternative aspect of the dimensions with property on the opposite aspect.
Simply have a look at the all of the panics through the nineteenth century. Gold declined in buying energy into the booms and rose through the declines, simply because the greenback does immediately. We name it money is king.
