If you look at a longer-term chart, gold has been in a sideways range for about 2 years.

Currently, about in the middle of that range.

Stocks, on the other hand, have been down all year, and many have been getting smoked.

Even on a long-term chart, it is clearly a bear market.

What I don't see many people talking about is the fact that BOTH stocks and bonds are getting creamed. Since Wall Street has been pushing the "stock/bond portfolio allocation based on years until retirement" concept for many years (a concept that is and always was entirely bogus, but most "investment advisors" have bought into it just like the doctors believe what they are told), the MAJORITY of retirement funds are getting hammered, and there is a high probability it will get worse.

Gold is a good option to have in the mix.

The Russian Ruble has skyrocketed since March.

A basket of currencies, metals, stocks, and bonds is a true diversified portfolio (throw in some real estate for those who want the extra time and effort for investment property). Very few "investment advisors" think this way. They think that stocks/bonds is the ONLY thing that could be called "diversified." That is because those are the ONLY things that the companies they work for can earn fees on managing.

Just like doctors are not taught how to achieve good health without drugs, investment advisors are taught to never look beyond stocks and bonds, even though they CAN both go down at the same time. More importantly, if the ideas of the global criminal NWO mafia get pushed enough, there could be a designed plan to push them down both. Get everyone onboard the Titanic, and then sink it. In this case, so the criminals can buy it all up cheap for pennies on the dollar, while a large percentage of the population becomes financially destitute -- just what would be needed for a unversal income and a one-world government.

Diversifying across multiple asset classes, and reallocating the balance every so often can alleviate this problem.
