How big is the gold investment market?

In 2005, the overall gold market saw inflows of US$ 56 billion, of which nearly US$ 9 billion represented investment flows.  Ultimately, the size of the gold investment market is some proportion of all the gold that has ever been mined.  On this basis, gold represents around 4% of the market capitalisation of global bonds and equities.
