"Gold is probably one of the most misunderstood investments of our time and I think that is by design. You see the popular misconception about gold is that it is a commodity and it is extremely risky. ...

The US dollar index having broken below 75 is now in new low uncharted territory. No wonder silver and gold prices have reacted to the upside.
