Gold bugs will declare several reasons for investing in and holding onto their stash of the yellow metal. One of the leading tenets they swear by declares gold to be a strong hedge against inflation, dollar manipulation and crises.

Right now, there is absolutely no evidence of an inflationary threat and absolutely nothing to indicate the dollar's strong value will weaken and fall. And if you think gold will protect you during times of crisis, just look at the last bubble burst in 2008 - the dollar was the safe bet, not gold.

On top of all of this... the price of gold has been flirting with $1,300/oz. for quite some time. Such a high price tag for a commodity (not a currency) that has very little value and provides very little financial security.
