M2, I can buy into that idea to a point. I still think that when fear reaches a high, the demand for gold should outstrip the small percentage of players that already have it and need to sell to raise liquidity. I look at it this way, the 2% of players with gold should be over-powered easily by some percentage of the remaining 98% that do not own gold. For me, that is where that idea breaks down. Gold is supposed to be the real last store of value and in times of great risk the asset with zero counter-party risk should catch a bid. GT TH
