re: "It's also feared the downgrades could trigger fresh market panic, and a new exodus to gold."

Why should anyone fear "a new exodus to gold"? The money that has gone to gold so far is TRIVIAL. Even at $5,000/oz, it would have a negligible effect on the world except, perhaps, in its impact on human psychology.

This is one reason why gold has extraordinary potential. *IF* the mountains of currency begin to collapse, there is only a little tiny bit of gold in the world to suck up a pretty good chunk (say, 2-3 percent) of all that value.
