Will gold go up or down?

Yes.

But we have no way to tell which it will be. The folks at Lear Capital confess uncertainty, too, but they have produced an infographic that shows the relative movements of gold, silver, stocks, inflation and national debt during presidential administrations. (For sure, gold never stays the same, it is always either up or down, like the grand old Duke of Kent in the nursery song.)

These are hardly the only indexes that matter (money supply growth is always interesting), but for what it’s worth, here it is.
