And gold has held its own against most indices globally and against any individual stock globally so carrying on about how some index has outperformed gold shows either ignorance or lack of understanding. =====================================
Are you serious? This is the kind of post that proves how removed goldbugs are from the real world. Gold's a lousy bet that's been thoroughly thrashed, not only by indexes but by thousands of individual stocks.
Let's start with a couple of indices..... Since 1974...
Gold +1,016% Silver +252% DJIA including divs +11,259% S+P +3,999%
How about a couple of individual stocks, Tesla and Amazon....since 2011
