Since 2005 the gold price performance in the world’s 16 major currencies has soared an average +230%.   This is more than amazing….actually it’s astounding when one compares this stellar appreciation to what global stocks have done during the same 10 years. 

Stock Market Performance of Major Global Regions

Below are the Stock Market returns of 15 major Stock Indices:

The average performance of the above major world stock indices during the past 10 years was a miserly 57%.   Consequently, the average gold performance during the past 10 years was more than  FOUR TIMES GREATER than stock market returns….(i.e. 230% for gold vs. only 57% for fiat paper investments) .

The above performance data are irrefutable…but this begs the question:  What may global investors expect form gold during the next five years?  The following study will provide insightful observations to answer that vitally important question:  Gold Price Forecast Of Plausible $12,600 By Year 2020
