I think this started a few years with CNG auctions. I heard they got a massive consignment in and they had a LOT of them for a few months in every...
Fair point about collective demand. But it collective and transactional. A bullion dealer is not risking 10 years of profits by overcharging a...
No, spot IS the "market". Physical long term is tied to spot, but when people get crazy inventory is depleted and premiums get jacked up. I am...
