You think we’ll ever see it?
It certainly looks like it’s trying to get there...

    We will likely have a few surprises before this roller coaster ride slows down....No predictions from me, I will leave that to those that make a profit from their crystal balls...Cheers, RickO

    Rising gold and silver make sense to me with the current conditions. The only thing not making sense is an up stock market. My crystal ball, although in need of new batteries, says painful days ahead in the stock market. I recently took my profits and backed out. I may be a little early, but happy to get out with what I got.

    We will certainly see it, the bigger question is will it hold?

    It looks like a PM bull market, so I am stepping aside from stacking and just being selective about just purchasing a few numismatic pieces and that's it. I purchase a few commemorative coins that I like to get MINT fresh at the year of issue, so that I have all the packaging and original paperwork intact and keep factory sealed.

    A bull market makes it tempting to buy as if one does not want to miss this rocket or wave likely coming up, but I know, for myself, it's best to just watch for now. Buy only when the made rush settles down, maybe join some profit taking coming up.

    I think we hit $20 soon. Maybe this week based on momentum. Im not sure we stay above $20 right now. I also thing we end the year $21-$22

    I liked it at $34 about 10 years ago. Since Silver is a by-product of Copper mining and Copper mining production is down in 2020, that should put a dent in Silver production. GLTA

    Everybody knows what side of the PM fence I stand on, but I hope everyone would agree, at our current rate of rampant money printing, even $20 an ounce for silver is far undervalued.

    Agreed. $20 for a full troy ounce of fine silver is a very reasonable price in this day and age.

    You heard it here first:

    March 16 was bear market bottom.
    $21 silver before Aug. 15.
    $25 before year end, triple digits before July 15, 2023.
    Why? Money supply growth.

    I like all of those predictions. Definitely agree with the first two. Doubt we see $100 in mid-July 2023 though. It certainly would be nice.

    When precious metal prices rise in step with equities one of them is undoubtedly in a major bubble. Buy the other one.

    I still spend the same but get fewer ozs when the price rises. My cut off price is when it hits $30 again, right now I'm sending more in for grading then buying but there's a coin show in Grapevine Tx. this weekend so if there's any in the DFW area I will see you there.

    I think you are a little bid premature in you crystal ball gazing. (but that's to be expected) I'm a believer that $20 silver is possible by year end, however it depends if silver can maintain the $19 range for a while w/o dropping back down to previous highs in the $17 - $18 range.

    Wow, $100 silver in 3 years?

    Will everything quintuple in price?

    Or just silver, which costs under $15 per oz to mine and refine?

    Looks like those huevos took a turn in the wrong direction. Could be back to the $18s as soon as tomorrow.

    Those concerned with tomorrow's price of any real asset need to avoid that asset. Stick with TESLA for day trading.

    You should compare some share prices to book value. If physical silver was on the NASDAQ with a book value of $15, it would be selling for $150.

    But still not a bubble. lol

    TSLA, I could only wish. In 3 months I could have yielded more than I ever could in a LIFETIME of silver investing. TSLA is only for the market gurus like 2 cents.

    For the record as of last night (7/15) all my investments in the casino went to "stable value" funds. Could miss out on additional gains but fortunate to be back at break even pre COVID. Now if we could just get the boat anchor to move I'd drop the gutter metal like a bad habit.

    Many stocks trade for less than book value.

    What you dont understand is the value of the cash flow that is given off by companies and the ability to grow that cash flow. And the ability to create something that never existed before. The ability to improve human existance. We could go on an on, but you would never understand, hence your reliance on conspiracy theory.

    $20 is likely a psychological barrier for buyers and a physical barrier for buying algorithms. Breaking $20 should result in added momentum, making $25 before year's end more likely. Then it likely becomes a downhill snowball. But first, it has to break $20.

    Silver just broke $20 in the futures market. Just might trigger bullion bank algorithms to go to DEFCON 1.

    Cool chart. How relevant is the left half to any of us? For example,
    My 1st job was in 1984. 90% of the "damage" to the almighty 1913 dollar was already done.

    You would find that point (1984) on the chart and that becomes your 100% and then see where we are today. It appears you have lost about 50% of your purchasing power in your working career.

    Those 1984-earned dollars are either spent long ago on 1984- costing goods and services, or have been invested and have (much) more than doubled.

    Who earns money one year and saves cash or leaves in in savings accounts paying nearly zero interest, for 36 years??

    It's a straw man argument, and an easy one to counter.

    Had I bought silver bullion in 1984, and held till today? how would I have done? 😉

    Better than FRNs, granted. But embarrassingly poorly vs stocks, real estate, or rare coins.

    You may want to brush up on your logical arguments as well as your Econ 101. The strawman argument was yours (who earns money one year and saves cash) and your inability to apply a BLS chart showing the purchasing power of the dollar to real life is not surprising given the poor state of economic education in this country...
