":0) well, ok, more than make up the difference with Japanese, Pakistanis, Indonesians, Koreans, and tribes of the sands. Gold is very democratic."

Well, since Pakistan used to be part of India and has around 165 million people.. that makes it pretty close to 1.3 Billion for the two countries... :-)

Found this chart on global gold consumption. Supposedly the US is
still the largest consumer. Turkey also consumes quite a bit of gold:

gold.org

Note the seasonal patterns indicate we'll see an uptick in prices by the end of the year. I'm hoping top see gold breaking $700 again between November and Chinese New Year.

Is the mainland Chinese market opening up to gold purchases..?

(No taxes, no limits on purchases, etc..)
