Gold Rush II: It's sell, sell, sell as prices hit record high, but this time it's because America's broke!

``For many Americans struggling to make ends meet, the gold boom has meant a heart-breaking trip to the pawn shop, selling off jewelry to pay the bills.'' -- This article highlights how the "gold fever" presently gripping the US is on the sell side. There is very little discussion of who is buying or why. Hint: its not US-based, and it has a lot do with fear of the future of our currency. Despite what the title seems to suggest, it can't possibly be selling that is driving the gold price higher.
