I point out in advance that I do have a relationship with GoldMoney, and that I also own shares of miners as well as physical gold and silver at GoldMoney.

I have been in the same boat with Bob Hoye for as long as I can remember.
Mish Thoughts on Gold in Deflation
It is important to point out upfront what "deflation" means to me.
Deflation is not about rising prices, so please do not send me emails telling me about the price of gasoline or food (or anything else), especially if you are going to ignore trillions of dollars of debt and equity wiped off the books in the housing bust.
My definition of inflation is a net increase of money supply and credit, with credit marked to market. Deflation is a net decrease of money supply and credit, with credit marked to market.
We have been in generally deflationary times since 2007 along with the housing bust. Bernanke and central bankers in general have poured on the liquidity spigots fighting the collapse in credit, and as I expected (but other deflationists like Robert Prechter did not), gold advanced.
Here are some specific references to things I have written:
