[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 2789076, member: 77814"]It's all a perception of price trends. Most people actually never track actual price based on spot price. usually when there's a "SALE" people go gangbusters and go buy irrelevant if the price actually dropped at all. One thing learned from general Consumer Shopping/Buying habits. A technique many merchants are great at. Just research Kohls department stores, or many of those shoe places. But people will think a downwards PM spot trend as saving money if they wait for a further reduction, because they perceive they are getting a value as spot has decreased. When in many instances the actual price hasn't decreased. Also, many people, especially pure PM "stacker" based buyers are price sensitive based on spot price as they want to lower their average price per ounce. Of course, if we knew it was going to sell in 5 years for the same price. Then why buy it at all? That would mean that spot price will *never* change .. 5 yrs,, then the next 5 yrs, the next 5 yrs, etc and technically, it should have been the same 5, 10, 15 etc years ago too.[/QUOTE]
