So, it there really a shortage? As far as I can see, no, in Austria I can walk in, ask for a gold bar and get it on the spot at spot price.

Can people please comment on gold availability in their area and the price of physical gold? I'm a bit confused with what's going on. In recent weeks, countries have taken huge deliveries of physical gold, yet the price has stayed the same? - ok, it's artifically adjusted, but as far as I can see, there is no shortage.

well the $ is going down, Gold always seems to hold its value. but sense everyone is buying it up demand is going to make it, go up to.
