“At some point, as things slow down in China, around the world, and particularly in Europe, we could again see some money rushing into the dollar, temporarily depressing gold. But if it happens, it will just be the prelude to the next gold price explosion. The dollar is like the wooden shack at the beach. You’ve got a company picnic going on and it starts to rain. So everybody runs for cover under the shack. That’s the dollar. But when the downpour turns into a massive hurricane, the shack is worthless, you want to be holed up in a house made of brick and mortar, something durable for the duration — gold.”
