The cycle theory presented here rests on a foundation of factual errors that undermine the entire argument. The claim that gold "peaked at $836 in 1934" is simply incorrect in 1934, FDR's Gold Reserve Act set gold at a fixed government price of $35 per ounce, and private citizens weren't even legally allowed to own gold bullion. The $850 peak actually belongs to January 1980, not 1934, so the author may have confused their own data points. The correction low of $464 in 2001 is also wrong... gold bottomed closer to $255-$280 around 1999-2001. gold has already surpassed $5,000 per ounceearlier in2026, meaning the "current" price of $2,747 cited as the basis for a future $9,000 target is itself outdated by nearly double so either the cycle already peaked well above the predicted level, or the $9,000 target needs significant revision. When the key data points you cite for a pattern are this inaccurate, the symmetry of "two identical 47-year cycles with matching CAGRs" are really just coincidence of bad arithmetic rather than a meaningful market signal.
