The S&P 500 may be trading at its highest levels in close to five months, but relative to the price of gold it looks like anything but a rally. Back in October 2009, the price of the S&P 500 was actually higher than the price of gold. Over the last year, though, gold has pulled ahead while stocks have gone nowhere. Today, the S&P 500 is trading at 1,157 while the price of gold is trading at 1,337 per ounce, for a ratio of 0.86.
