Why are stocks going up a bit?

Answer: the dollar is dropping like a piano falling out of a window in a silent movie comedy.

If the dollar is worth less, stocks denominated in dollars will go up in price.

If gold was worth $20.67 when FDR confiscated it in the 1930's but is worth $1350 now, has gold become more valuable or has the dollar lost 95% of its value?
