Who said the Russian's are dumping Gold?
The Russians have the largest reserves and have been dumping gold for the last 10 years.
When gold gets to $800 like it was in '79/80 I will get mildly concerned.
My $$ goes into ammo and firearms. A much better investment.
I would speculate that the Russians increasing their gold holdings is a very smart move. We are probably going to go through another round of high inflation within the next 4-5 years (just my personal opinion. They certianly wouldn't want to hold dollar assets in any case.
