Four things are happening (and one of them is gold) that make a terrifying situation.

Facts:

- Gold has reached all time highs

- US debt (ie T-bills) selling at all time lows

- US equities are at all time highs

- USD falling day over day, month over month, year over year

All 4 of those facts cannot remain true indefinitely. The all time high equity prices are because it requires more USD(which is decreasing in value) to purchase them. Gold is at all time highs because USD is decreasing in value, and the flight to safety leads people to gold. US debt is falling in value because no one wants to buy it. At some point, equities will give up and crash, or gold will have to crash....and I don't think it's going to be gold crashing.
