Re: Best deal you scored this shopping season.
The currency that’s “crashing” is the Russian ruble. It has depreciated by over 60% in one year. And with oil prices on the decline and plummeting foreign investment in Russia, its prospects appear grim. 
Meanwhile, the gold price these days is hovering around $1200 per ounce, down from a peak of over $1800 in 2011. The gold bubble burst a while ago.
