Gold again

Gold is down a zillion percent today.

I recall having some thoughts about investing in silver because they were using so much of it to make solar cells; I figured supply and demand would push up its price. Fortunately, Google came to my rescue. I got a hold of an incredibly detailed and legible report showing me that the price of the metal was influenced by many more factors than I could have ever imagined, and that the price was in fact going the other way.

Gold, I suspect, is even more complex. For the lay folk it’s a tipple not an investment.
