[INTERVIEW] China's precious metal demand to affect future hardware prices?

[INTERVIEW] China's precious metal demand to affect future hardware prices?

Bloomberg wrote a piece recently about China's latest gold-buy spree. Mainland China purchased 102 779 kilogram of pure gold from Hong Kong in November 2011. A month before that, they bought "only" 86 299 kilograms. Statistics from the CPM Group show a peak in gold consumption between 1995 and 2000, a decline in annual gold demand starting from 2001 keeping a steady figure up to 2007.
2008, the year many financial professionals will call the start of Europe's financial recession, clearly shows deep plunges in demand both from EU and USA.
