The reason why I ask this is because, with the current situation of dollar devaluation and gold's increase in price, it seems like there is a direct relationship between the performance of the dollar and the performance of commodities in general. So: Does that mean that the dollar operates upon a supply-and-demand basis like commodities? More dollars in the market, the less valuable they become? Or, Is the devaluation in the dollar caused by the lack of investment in US Bonds due to the increase of the money supply/US Deficits, which people then buy things like gold which still operates on a supply-and-demand model? I saw a chart and it sparked this question.. maybe a little bit of both?
