POG at $2000 Could be a black swan but only the DS Rotchils stand in the way of the full collapse of the PetroDollar hegemony of world commerce.
If the swan is white and given the massive holdings of gold by Russia and China, there is every incentive for those countries to have POG as high as possible for their gold backed currency.
While $15,000 gold may seem improbable now, just look how quickly oil has doubled in price.
Transient ?
Who knows but logic says no....and many of those who hold gold and gold investments will become very wealthy..
