Why Is the Stockpile of Gold Increasing?
Gold stockpiles increase at around 1.5 to 2% per year, every year. But we're constantly adding to a stockpile that is not being consumed because there's no way of consuming gold. The second hardest metal historically was silver and that increased historically at around maybe 5% per year or so. Now it probably increases in something like closer to 30% because it's now getting used extensively in industrial uses.
