This from Brian Cox's now, 10 year old remarkable book. All the gold ever found would only fill about 3 Olympic size swimming pools.Not much compared to the size of the world,eh? That rarity extends further out into our milky way galaxy of a billion stars,where the conditions required to produce very rare elements like gold,only happen about 2 minutes in a century.So there won't be much digging for gold on mars,I suppose.
hey @finickyBTO - forgotten what this means
STO?
Could you @rederob put up a chart comparing Gold and Bitcoin over the last 3 years as I believe some punters may be migrating to the latter. Perhaps a logarithmic on the latter.Back to where we were a week ago, but nothing below $1800 in that period, so more uplift likely:

Then again I cannot see many Indian brides nor Chinese New Year revellers lugging hot hard drives about their necks nor wrists any time in the future.

Badcoin!
And exactly 2 years ago based on the same chart, you get this outcome:

It's hard to believe that money which 5 years ago would have flowed into gold in this economic environment has not instead flowed into cryptocurrencies.
The only thing I know about the market is that bubbles have always burst. So I reckon there is a good chance that the much safer haven of gold as a store of value (in markets burdened with debt) will continue to outshine the johnnycomelatelies.
Thanks @rederob . Looking at your chart GOLD doesn't seem to have the "legs" it had after March 2020.Back over $1880 but having trouble breaking $1900.
Downtrend broken and upward momentum continues.View attachment 124671
Perspective is everything Sir Garpal.Thanks @rederob . Looking at your chart GOLD doesn't seem to have the "legs" it had after March 2020.
More like Dec 19 - Mar 20.
I would like to be wrong.

Thanks @rederobPerspective is everything Sir Garpal.
That's a $200 rise over the past 2 months!

Just looking at a number of charts Bitcoin and Gold.
There seems to be an inverse correlation over the last month, a fall in BTC and a rise in GOLD.
Perhaps the punters are moving back in to my metal.

It is quite a secret where the Bullion Depository is near Auckland Airport.Record volumes of gold moved to NZ as investors seek haven
Risk-averse international investors are thought to flying in their gold to stash it in a discreet, high-security vault near Auckland's international airport.www.newsroom.co.nz
