Hi Bob, I believe you've posted about the small impact vis-a-vis US buying before. A thimble full in the face of world demand--good point. Some have asked whether the sucker was finally run out so I posted what seems to be close to the answer.

Makes me think of the frog in the beaker of water. If one brings the water to a boil quickly the frog simply jumps out to safety. When the same frog is later put into a beaker of water which is brought to a boil VERY slowly, he never even sees it coming & is boiled alive. Is there not always a final straw, degree, or ounce, which makes the final difference? Will the consumer / investor behave the same way / buy at the rate at the next(however slight)price increase?
