This chart compares the monthly percentage growth of the Federal Reserve balance sheet (U.S. Treasuries and Agency MBS) against the price of gold back to 2004.
Looks like QE3 changed this picture radically (but is this change for good?). If the gold price "needs" to force its way up above the Fed reserves balance sheet again, it looks like a bull run for gold will also be needed.
