"why are gold and silver and precious metal company share prices not rocketing upwards to $2000 or $45 an oz or doubling their share market values today everyone talks about here?"
Simple answer:
Because many buyers accept paper gold as if it was the real thing and also that paper gold transactions are used to set the price of the real thing. As long as people do not insist on delivery of the real thing each time, situation will continue.
The few who are taking the real thing ( China, India etc.) are not pressing too hard lest the price escalate too high to their liking. They will go hard at it once the real thing's supply is bone dry.
Jmho.
