Deflation sägs ju vara dåligt för guldet och guldpriset (http://www.adelmetallforum.se/guldpris/), det kan jag hålla med om men hur ligger det till med köpkraften egentligen.
"According to a recent report by the American Institute for Economic Research, there have been 15 deflationary events in the U.S. in the past 221 years during which the purchasing power of gold increased by 31%. The average deflation cycle lasted five years, which implies an annual average gain in purchasing power of 6% from holding gold during these times.
"Gold is a store of value even during deflations," wrote Gregg Van Kipnis, chairman, American Investment Services, which authored the report.
"The purchasing power of gold rises because it does not go down in value to the same extent the price level declines," the report said."
