Yeah, I'm pretty sure the 3% number is more like the size of the gold coin/bar collectible market aka people buying it as a store of money. Maybe 5% or even a bit higher recently, but it gets swamped by falling purchases of jewelry and industrial uses currently in my opinion. Better to treat gold as just another commodity.
