US Stocks in Gold Bullion Terms - 31 October 2011

Stocks have had a bad year when measured in Gold Bullion...

OCTOBER has seen a giant rally for the S&P 500, writes Brian Hunt for Steve Sjuggerud's Daily Wealth.

At least, that's when you price the index in US Dollars.

But as the chart below shows, maybe you should consider holding off on the celebration. 

You see, there are always two sides to a price. On one side, you have the product, asset, or service being measured. On the other, you have the "measuring unit," like Swiss Francs, US Dollars, Euros...or Gold Bullion. Keeping this "two sides to a price" idea in mind lets you see things others do not.

 For example, when you measure stocks against "real money," you'll see stocks are still in the pits this year.

Get the safest gold – stored in your choice of US, UK or Swiss vaults – at the lowest possible prices by using BullionVault...
