The article you noted suggests that Summers concluded that Gibson's Paradox is a reality even in the absence of a gold standard so long as there is a free market for it and that his conclusions fell apart in the 1990s when there was governmental interference in the market.

As usual, government will screw things up. However, given the present realities, I doubt that there will be any substantial interference in the gold market any time soon.

I had no idea that Summers or Greenspan for that matter were as knowledgeable about gold as they clearly are.
