Does the Perth Mint publish monthly sales?
Yep, they are pretty stupid over in the States, Bron.People I speak to say investor sentiment, gold and silver, is really bad. Not surprising when price going sideways - for a dealer a sideways market is worse than a falling one, as there is no clear trend for people to act on and therefore few transactions. As one dealer said to me, No Trend Is No Friend.

How can you expect to sell it when Marc Dice can't even give it away?
