"I've waited a long time for these commodity bull years".
Shame it takes financial crisis to run these metals.
since 1980
$1.00 in 1980 had the same buying power as $2.71 in 2011. Gold 1980 was around 600oz - 1500 today. Gas 1980's hit 1.35 gal / today about to break 4.00 Corvette 1980's $23,392+ today 54-58K+ Ford Mustang 1980's $6,572-8,308+ today 22-28K+ Corn Flakes 1980's 19 oz,99 cents - 2011 12 oz, $3.79 Tomatoes 1980's .39cents per pound- today 2.99 (+/- pennies)
What will the buying power of the dollar be should gold hit 5K? hmmmmmmmm... scary..........
