Well, this does indicate that a lot of the average punters out there are buying gold. But we must bear in mind that a lot of average punters bought bull market stock and property a few years back too .........

I am not advocating alternatives, thus there can be no other agenda. Save an alternate point of view, perhaps worth considering.

You will also see that there are very strict rules in India regarding gold sales. Bullion can not be sold - only value added gold (jewelery ect) and apparently scrap as well.

So we have Indian bullion dealers who's imports of gold have slumped 83%. And they are offloading what they can. We have ebay dealers selling gold like hotcakes.

If gold was destined to go up, up, up... you would assume these dealers would hold on to their gold like dear life wouldn't you? If gold was going up, up, up, you would assume they would be buying rather than selling?

If the dealers are not buying, but rather selling, well I personally would consider this fact very carefully before buying into gold
