    So, is there any reliable data on what percentage of people in Australia or the US actually stack or buy coins (bullion or numi) as an investment? If not, any reliable way to guess at such percentages?

    And, is that number increasing? If yes, how do we know? I have heard of stackers actually liquidating much or all of their stack so are the number of new stackers significantly offset by those who are turning to real estate, stocks, or some other investment?

    Can you shed any light on this with any sort of data?

    Thanks




    p.s. How many stackers does it take to change a light bulb?

    well it kind of depends on his stack right? i mean if hes got a tonne of 1kg stackers he can arrange them into a kind of staircase fashion

    None. True stackers don't need light bulbs. They save the electricity money for more silver.
