Day 2: The Most Important Gold vs Stocks Lesson
History shows a clear inverse relationship between equities and gold/silver during secular cycles (see 2000, 2008, 2011, 2020). Goldman’s work highlights this dynamic. In my view, the coming crisis will put it front and centre again.
Why this time is different
Float is razor-thin: Metal exchanges have very little available supply; central banks have been major net buyers.
Portfolio underweight: JPM data suggests public exposure to gold/silver is 0.5% vs a historical mean near 2%. That implies a ~300% increase in public demand would only take us back to average.
Stocks look stretched: S&P at ~28.5× vs ~16× long-term mean, as earnings face slowdown pressures (jobs, margins, tariffs).
Tariffs ≠ consumer pass-through: In my view, exporters, importers, distributors, and retailers eat margins—profits compress, multiples reprice.
My scenario (not advice)
S&P: 2000–2500
Gold: $5,000+
Silver: $100++
XRP: Utility could shine in stress; $100+ is conceivable in extreme scenarios (e.g., carry-trade unwind), though risks are high.
Practical tip when buying/selling coins or bars:
Use your phone calculator to check weight, purity, premium vs spot. Avoid overpaying.
