In 1964 if you horded $100 in gold bullion or bought same amount of GE stock; what would be worth more today?

1. probably the g.e. stock, as it was illegal to own gold bullion in 1964. it was legalized during president ford's administration.
2. Since it was illegal to buy or own gold (other than what was in your fillings), it would have to be the GE stock, even if it were worthless. By the way, gold was going for roughly $35 an ounce in 1964, so $100 worth would only be 3 ounces. At the current rate, you'd have a bit over $1000 worth.
