just price reacting to poor economies right now.

Sorry but that is a poor excuse for an explanation. Why the disconnect? Why are the markets appreciating because of fed printing while gold is not? Poor economics? Of what? In 2008 both the equities markets and gold sold off hard in tandem. Now we have a complete disconnect. Are gold prices presaging a global selloff of markets just to come? Maybe. But until you understand what's happening, saying gold is going to continue to go up is nothing but guess work.

As far as doomsdayers, don't get caught up in the hype. The doomsdayers have been around since the early 1900's. Ever see the movie Deliverance (1972)? The character Lewis played by Burt Reynolds was also a doomsdayer and lived his life by it. It's nothing new. If you enjoy living your life by it that's cool, but it's doubtful it will happen in your lifetime.

BTW, if you talk to anyone that grew up in any of the German occupied countries during WWII, you'll learn that things were about as bad anyone can imagine, fathom and atrocity was everywhere. But people tended to work together and help each other out, not the mad max world that the prepping shows portray will happen to people.
