Stupid as in without brakes one cannot stop a Locomotive.  Or are they saying GOLD is a runnaway TRAIN.  Or just reffering to the MYSTERY behind the curtain as they cannot or so they say that there really is no reason for GOLD to RUN? The last idea is that Banks have always wanted to see gold held into a "LOGJAM" and since the mid 1960's they have succeded save for the few bright spots of 1980,2000/01), 2009/11ish.

Think of GOLD as being ICE, and you live on a river that is named the "FINANCIAL" River, your looking out accross this vast spance of dollars floating by your house and for years you can see when the flowing dollars JAM up a huge BANK against the flo of GOLD.  Skip to the question that they are asking is WHY is GOLD jammed up in the middel of this river of and it is FIAT "river" why?  Retort why?  All i can rationalize is that GOLD is ICE and ICE eventually Conquers all resistance, even when taken from a frontal assult.  Once GOLD flows it willl be unstopable and Presidents,Emperors,Dictators,Govenors, Kings& Queens and Billionares and average Joes,and finally the working MAN will all see that GOLD has taken the HIGH GROUND and becomes a "Supream Admiralty Ruler" in a new Era of Gamemenship.  Put the corona virus into a perspective and the brutally negative impact of destruction it has had.  That is what GOLD will do only it will not be a negative event, but rather a very VERY VERY SUPREME EVENT, perhaps an ERA of the greatest prosperity of-- prosperity of MANKIND.  That is my thought on GOLD and right now GOLD is still locked away begging for "bread and water" as if it has caused TREASON on the high Seas. Or as a deposed Buccaneer who is cast into a brig.
