<<gold production...
... changes in production have less of an effect in the gold market
than in the oil market. This is why the gold producers can't drive the price up much.>>

<<So if the miners were going to do anything, what they would do is reduce
sales of gold, not production. This would have the effect of making their
balance sheets very dependent on the price of gold, which is exactly what
they don't want to have. What they want is predictability, which is why all
those hedging programs were in place.>>

<<If the miners wanted to run the price of gold up, they might as well buy
it on the futures market. "Texas hedge">>

<<I really doubt that the miners are going to reduce production. In fact,
with the recent price rise, they are, without doubt, increasing production
as fast as they can. But all that production increase will hardly make much
of a dent in the total amount of gold held above ground -- Carl>>
