That is why nonperishable metals such as gold were a store of value and mean of exchange for ages........ and now all CB's are trying to keep it's price down and distribute more paper instead. Haim, previously you had questioned the value of investing in gold. Here you mention the concerted effort on the part of CB's to control the POG downward. Isn't such an attempt doomed to failure, and therefore bullish for gold investments? Or, do you believe the CB's will succeed?
