The IMF plans to sell another 203.3 tonnes of gold and they have not found a another big buyer yet.
I think that is approximately 8 percent of annual world production.

Gold sales in India, the world’s biggest consumer, have been poor during the holiday season amid record prices and the nation’s imports will decline, according to the head of the Indian Bullion Market Association.

The price of gold went straight up after the fund inception date (11/18/04) of GLD.
Is this a coincidence?
