Conclusion?  Your best bet is still Gold and Silver against paper currencies, saying their performance is astounding is plain for all to see.  Paper currencies will continue their long term devaluation.  Interest gained in a paper account will not be enough to account for the decline of purchasing power.

Strange that you post something like this, I created a chart similar to this earlier this evening... Just not to the same extent as yours.

The GLD and SLV it is the ETF or the spot price that it's tracking?

Both are ETFs that track the spot price of Gold and Silver after fees.
