Quotes and Charts for Gold & GLD (the ETF for Gold)
 


December 3, 2012Today I published an article at Seeking Alpha titled "Dow/Gold Ratio Remains Low On Historical Basis." 

One reader thought the long term chart in my article titled "200 Years - Dow/Gold Ratio" could be improved on so he gave a link to a temporary chart in the comments section.  His chart added blue resistance and support lines for the period prior to the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 created the Fed and red resistance and support lines for after the Fed was created.   The lower red line on the chart makes the "gold bugs" very bullish case for gold.  Of course, there are many ways to connect stars in the sky to see figures, so I added lines that make a bullish case for stocks relative to gold. 

 Chart of 200 Year DOW to Gold Ratio - 1800 to 2012 
Here is the formula:  

The Dow-Gold Ratio is a measure of inflation and stock market sentiment. It shows how many ounces of gold it takes to buy the 30-stock Dow Jones Industrial Average.   

Note:  It is possible that Federal reserves printing money causes BOTH gold and stocks to go higher.
