colinchi,

stock market was created for those who think they know something about the stock market, or economy in general; now stock market actually becomes part of the economy itself globally. if you take this view, you will then understand no single financial product/instrument will go from one end to another within period of 1 or 3% or even 10% of your life expectancy, let alone symbolic global reserve commodity GOLD.

nickel was thought dead last year, iron ore floor price was thought to be at 110, oz dollar was thought beyond 1.1 us and then thought below 0.8 not long after ...

as you said, expect the least expected, but I can tell you, reserve commodity wont go from 1800 to half price life the tshirt you wear.
