<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Rono, post: 1372399, member: 6492&quot;]Hi Jack,</p><p><br /></p><p>I probably didn&#039;t express myself well.&nbsp; I don&#039;t disagree with you.&nbsp; Unless things went completely into the toilet, I also doubt we&#039;d see gold and silver coins used for commerce (although, tradesmen have been assaying gold and silver coinage for several thousand years and I&#039;m sure they could do so today if needed).&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>My point is that while what you&#039;re stating is true&nbsp; - it doesn&#039;t matter if enough folks (e.g. survivalists) believe that fractional gold and 90% silver will be the coin of th realm and they go out and buy it on the open market.&nbsp; Their purchases reflect demand and will impact prices.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>When I&#039;m investing in something, I want to know as much about the demand and supply functions as possible.&nbsp; If I own bullion as a speculative momentum play, what do I care why the POG is being supported by dowry purchases in India or bling being bought by the nouveau riche in China or CB purchases by various countries around the world.&nbsp; All I care about is that they are buying and that&#039;s helping the price of my investments.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>peace,</p><p><br /></p><p>rono[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
