thanks tria, that series implies next P/E of ... 5 ?
Here's a very interesting analysis of the USD/gold/bonds/equities correlation that forecasts gold and equities will finally DECOUPLE:

Mega-trendline going back to 1932 looks quite compelling. If this scenario is correct, S&P p/e of 5 may be quite realistic.
This scenario intuitively makes sense, if we see a major bond sell-off that results in PMs becoming the new safe haven, but decimates most equities due to lower earnings
For this to play out, I believe that banks (XLF) would have to be in serious trouble
If gold/equities part ways, will be interesting to see which way miners go ... GDX 44 is key here
