<< At that time the LBME was trading 35,000,000 ounces of gold per day. Which is in excess of 1100 tonnes per day. Since that time the figures have lessened to a slightly smaller number. But 1100 tonnes per day ? Known worldwide demand is believed to be 4000 tonnes per annum and yet a quarter of that amount is traded every business day ? Estimates of total above ground gold (all gold in existence) are about 125,000 tonnes. The LBME trades this amount twice a year ? Impressive I would say. Very impressive. Perhaps too impressive. >>

Hi Lorne,

The Gold Forum post wasn't mine, although I agree with it. Over there, I occasionally post as 'Snowman' ... Really original for someone living in the land of snow, eh.
