Can Gold get ahead of Inflation? Will Real-$1900 be topped?

 

This chart shows that the Inflation adjusted peak from 1980, was bang-on with the Aug-11 High

 

Gold_Inflation_Adj_2013_zpsc3468466.png

 

These are End-of-Month figures -
So Jan.1980-Infl.Adj.-End price was approx. $1,850
Versus end-Aug. 2011 = $1826.0am / $1813.5pm (/GLD-$177.77 = 10.20)
However, the Monthly high was higher:
During Jan.$1980 : $2,700 / $850 = inflation: 3.176

HERE is CPI ($$CPI):

 

To transform the $1920 August peak into a 2014 equivalent, we need an inflation index.

 

CPI_zps7554d46f.png

> source: Stockcharts.com (symbol: $$CPI )

 

Inflation : $$CPI
Aug.2011 : 227.0E : 095.61 %
Nov.2011 : 228.00 : 096.03 %
Aug.2014 : 237.43 : 100.00 %
Oct. 2014 : 237.5E : 100.03 %
=========
Oct.14 / Aug.11 --- : 1.0462
So $1,920 x 1.0462: $2,008
$1200 / 1.0462 == : $1,147 : - 40.3% from $1920 peak
======================

HALF of Gold's Gains Gone !

 

Using Inflation adjusted "real" prices, Gold-Adj. has given up HALF of its gains since the 2001 Low

 

The Drop to $1,180 / 1.0462 = $1,128 Real Gold price
That's 41.3% below the $1,920 Peak - versus the 82% drop from the 1980 Peak (HALF !)
This chart shows that the Inflation adjusted peak from 1980, was bang-on with the Aug-11 High

These are End-of-Month figures -
So Jan.1980-Infl.Adj.-End price was approx. $1,850
Versus end-Aug. 2011 = $1826.0am / $1813.5pm (/GLD-$177.77 = 10.20)
However, the Monthly high was higher:
During Jan.$1980 : $2,700 / $850 = inflation: 3.176
Using $2,700 : $1,128 / $2,700 (1980 peak) : - 58.2% lower

  • 5 months later...

TWO ASSETS Compared - which now produce little or no yield; and have very different risks:

 

TLT / Bonds : 2.43 % - with a small? capital loss, if held to maturity (10yr: 2.20% / 30yr: 2.80% )

GLD / Gold- : 0.00 % - with uncertain capital gains, or losses

 

TLT versus GLD/Gold ... update : 10-yrs

TLT-vsGLD_zpsscdxbhvn.gif

 

TLT- to GLD Ratio ... this "charts well" in a nice clear channel
