The long-term case for gold remains intact. The ratio of total US M1 (adjusted for the recent savings deposit re-classification) to gold has continued to surge higher, showing the underlying trend remains bullish. A bullish long-term trend does not mean things move in a straight line. Even the gold bull market during the high inflation of the 1970s saw an extended crash of 40%+ for 1.5 years from 1974/75 and another 20% crash in 1980 that ultimately ended up being a 50% peak to trough drawdown.
