    The only PM price that is relevant is the one that you can actually buy and sell at. Spot is just useful for trend plots :rolleyes:

    He certainly does knows the scene...

    Buddy guy's been playing the circuit well before Hendrix could tie his boot laces, then became a for him as he developed an inspiration.

    Stevie Rav Vaughn also was keenly inspired and respected this man.

    He's still dam well going!

    I watch it as it's another investment vehicle and so I really care about the daily spot price because I feel it's largely important.

    I watch it as it's another investment vehicle but in all honestly couldn't give a f#ck what the spot price on a day to day basis was as I feel it's irrelevant.


    Which is it? :)

    .. and to think you were so close to actually answering the question .

    Ha okay I dont 'care' about it like a living puppy or something but I am interested in its movements so therefore was saying I watch it from an investors point of you. If one had lots of money in unallocated they would care lots I imagine.

    So...if you're keeping score about 1.3% of me cares about spot price.

    Certainly not, Hendrix went way over yonder to the red house, don't think anyone has got that far since he made it light up.

    it is interesting for getting a feel for market sentiment perhaps but the reality is you most likely won't buy much of anything at spot.. there's nearly always a premium of sorts, so i don't pay too much attention to it but i do watch it on SS charts

    I care when i am selling scrap to my dealer.
    It is also the best guide around for what i can pay for stuff i buy and still make a profit when i resell or scrap it.

    I keep my eye on the spot price whenever I log on here but I don't lose sleep over it.

    So there are people here who are trying to convince themselves they don't care what their investment is worth?
    You're either rolling in dosh or incredibly careless.

    wake up call needed -
    would your day change if you found or lost a $50 bill? now keep in mind how little spot has to move to replicate that.
