<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fatima, post: 1390114, member: 22143&quot;]Central banks don&#039;t hold corn, plywood, pork bellies as a legal monetary asset guaranteeing their base money supplies.&nbsp; They hold gold and USD for this purpose and with oil, which is only bought and sold in USD, is a requirement for an economy as a country either sells it or buys it.&nbsp;&nbsp; There are easy substitutes for the other items you mention.</p><p><br /></p><p>We just had a bankster hit on PMs that knocked the wind out silver in 1.5 hours.&nbsp;&nbsp; Yet if this was just a suppy &amp; demand issues like corn and pork bellies, then you would never see such price action.&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;m always wonder how these sorts of sharp corrections and reversals are accounted when the theory is put forth that PMs trade just like any other commodity.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
