<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Juan Blanco, post: 1621488, member: 41665&quot;]Have bullion vendors have finally jumped on the gun peddlers&#039; wagon, hype gubmint fear to push product yet? lol </p><p><br /></p><p>In the very short term at your LCS, there may well be <i>a self-fullfilling &quot;effect.&quot; </i>Might be informative to get reports from the Europeans, South Americans and Asians in the meanwhile: the US Mint&#039;s share of the physical bullion mkt isn&#039;t such a huge deal.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 2008/9 &quot;bullion&quot; event, as I recall, was bogus: the premiums on Cdn Maples remained reasonable (although presumably higher than avg) as the &quot;US Mint shortage&quot; laid absurd premiums on AGEs, ~36% ro so.&nbsp; Back in Summer 2009, there were no shortages of Au Maples, period. (The eBay premiums for US vintage coin went higher too - that didn&#039;t last forever either.)</p><p><br /></p><p>otoh, when the very real and terrifying US inflation evntually/inevitably starts (c.2015? 2017?) I do believe PM premiums will be a/the leading indicator. I very much doubt it&#039;s begun now, however. That&#039;s premature at this point.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
