Well, as gold production starts to soften, miners will be forced to re-evaluate future production and cover outstanding hedges. I guess, bankers need all these gold forwards. Gold may consolidate more until November, but then we will be back to races. And this is just a reminder of what will happen to gold in the event of a dollar crisis. Dollar, of course, is overvalued by any means -current account, or budget deficit.

"Can anyone see a manufacturer of, say, cars..."

Strangely enough, this did happen in a way. Some 5 or 6 years back, the manufacturers had a leasing price war and, by offering cheaper and cheaper leasing rates, encouraged a huge glut of leased cars into the market.
Needless to say, when these leases on these models expired, the resale prices took a nose dive which in most cases were only 50-60% of the leased 'resale price'.
