I mean “effect” as in “cause and effect”.

cause - people don’t think gold is pretty any more. people don’t want to make jewelry out of it.

effect - the price of gold falls.

I was very surprised to see my comment replied to so many times.

That sounds much like Yogi Berra’s: “Nobody goes there any more, it’s too crowded.”

You know some rare people. They are not characteristic of the other 99%.
