Bob, I think Edelson is offering far from a factual(truthful?) analysis
when it comes to Jewelry demand. Perhaps he is short the metals, or is working for someone who is. Here is where I posted the last numbers from Tiffany and Zale's, great moves up! Moreover, they show that during the Christmas season, Asia was coming back into the market and the U.S. market is stronger than ever.
A custom jeweler I know was Very Busy for months leading up to Christmas, and could not take any more orders. He was this level of busy because Tiffany has hired away his son & partner - a reduction of 1/2 available labor - and an increase in orders by 30-40% over last year. He is taking orders for this May - June's wedding season - NOW, due to demand!
The Tiffany numbers were widely reported. One must suspect the worst when an "analyst" says this sort of thing in the face of facts.

Also, I noted that each and every missile fired in Iraq has 1/10 oz of gold and the "smarter" weapons(including smart bombs) use silver in some bearing points for the gyro's. at some point these will be replaced. When we were only a day or three into the "Desert Fox" action, I took freely the shots from detractors which lamented the low total fired - today that too has changed.
I think we must be on the edge of a break out.
