There's a tool that you can use to compare investments here. You can compare U.S. stocks to gold.

For the last ten years gold has out-performed stocks.

That's very unusual.

Compare that to the previous ten years from 1994 to 2004.

Gold was up 6.4%. Stocks were up 204.8%.

Look at 1984 to 1994.

Gold was down 4.1%. Stocks were up 273.7%.

It's just odd to me that everyone is complaining about gold price manipulation when gold has done much better than usual.

Historically it's a horrible investment.
