Golden Minerals Company

Hey out there, has anyone either heard of or thought of what I will call "The China Put"? Think about it, if China is encouraging it's population to buy precious metals, which they are big time, don't you think they would work really hard to maintain the price and slowly move it up? They certainly don't want a billion people taking to the streets if PM's go in the toilet. This also applies to the miners, as they would want a steady supply of metal for it's increasingly gold and silver crazy people.
