Answer 1

there'd b another great depression

Answer 2

The biggest one-day decline in the US stock market was October 19, 1987. The economy did not even fall into a recession after this crash, mostly because the US Federal Reserve reduced interest rates sharply and provided liquidity to banks. Investors lost a lot of money, but the ones who bought after the crash were very well rewarded. We are much smarter now than we were in October, 1929. So don't panic even if the market crashes.

The dollar price of gold has had quite a runup in recent years, which I believe reflects a fear of rising inflation and a fairly steady decline in the international value of the US dollar.  Hard to know what gold would do after a stock market crash. Would probably depend on the proximate cause of the crash.  A little bit of gold (5%) in your portfolio is not a bad idea for diversification, but over the last 25 years stocks have provided better returns.

Then gold turns to c**p. And the stock market is going down, for your information, because of the oil price.

Answer 8

Gold is a precious metal, and will always retain substantial value. In the past, the price of gold often increased in times of financial turmoil. However, the current sky high prices of gold and other commodities are thought to be due to the expectation of future inflation and increased industrial demand. Under the circumstances, if the stock market should crash now, the expectation of inflation and industrial demand will go down as well.

Therefore, prices of gold and other commodities will generally DECLINE following a crash.
