If you could make (non radioactive) gold AND keep it secret, how much (oz?) could you produce a year without substantially affect gold's market value? Asking for a friend.
The world gold production is about 3500 tons/year. Order of magnitude, you should be able to add about 10% to that without causing the price to move any more than its normal yearly fluctuations.
I’m honestly not sure that the market is looking at supply at all at this point and is focused mainly on gold as a hedge against assets that are part of structured economies (treasuries, the dollar, etc)
I would hypothesize that if you doubled the gold supply in the world you might only see a 1/3 decrease in price because of these dynamics - but I’m not an expert in that market.
