📏 THE BIG LIE SINCE 2000: GOLD EXPOSED IT

People keep asking why Gold has “outperformed” stocks since 2000.
The answer isn’t magic, fear, or shiny rocks.

It’s the denominator.

Let’s talk numbers⤵️
→ M2 Money Supply (2000): $4.6 trillion
→ M2 Money Supply (2025): ~$22.3 trillion

That’s a 4.8x expansion of dollars in 25 years.

Now pause 🐒
If the unit you measure with keeps getting longer…
everything you measure will look like it’s growing.

What actually happened?
We didn’t just get a stock bull market.
We got massive currency dilution.

Stocks went up in nominal terms
But when priced against a hard yardstick like gold?

📉 A lot of that “growth” disappears.

Gold didn’t beat stocks because it’s aggressive.
Gold beat stocks because it stayed honest.

Gold reflects:
→ currency debasement
→ monetary expansion
→ loss of purchasing power

The S&P 500, when adjusted for money supply, has spent long periods running in place, not compounding.

This is why measuring wealth only in dollars is dangerous.

When you print the ruler:
→ assets look taller
→ gains feel real
→ purchasing power quietly dies

✍️ Conclusion:
Gold isn’t screaming “number go up.”
It’s calmly saying, your money is shrinking.

And that’s the real lesson since 2000:
It wasn’t a historic bull market…
It was a historic money-printing cycle.

Measure wisely. 🐒📊
