    I don't believe anything he writes.
    I wouldn't be surprised if he has sold short a lot of silver in recent months.

    He claims to have an engineering/science degree and work experience in that.
    But he makes up numbers to suit his narrative.
    That is exactly the OPPOSITE of what a real scientist or engineer would do.

    Stack on Jim.

    Jim is my older brother, so it's not the slur you intended when you continue to call me Jim out of pure ignorance. It's a compliment.

    I've bought significant lots of silver 3 times in the past month, and I've had Jim add significantly to his stack twice in the past month.

    Silver is leaving gold in the dust. An all-time high in gold is somewhat irrelevant to what's happening in realtime.

    Pay attention and learn, grasshopper. :)

    Ok, good for you then.

    Personally, SLV is useless for me. If I buy silver, it is usually at a coin show or local shop. I need actual silver, not a paper receipt that can't be traded in for actual silver.

    High-frequency trading is a crap-shoot. If I want to gamble, I'd rather play cards at the casino.

    I can see why some people don't like silver vs. gold. It is bulky in meaningful quantities, e.g. hundreds of thousands worth, a 1000oz bar is a low range new car but the performance is there in appreciation and that is why I own both.

    Gutter 3/1/2012 $34.56 today $31.77

    March 1, 2012 - is THAT when you bought your silver? No wonder you can't say a nice thing about it. Maybe you should keep playing in the SLV sandbox. You really shouldn't be allowed to handle real money if that's how you manage it.

    I've added $2,000 face in recent months and my overall average cost is still only $17.23 per ounce. I may continue to add more, since the fundamentals look good to me right now.

    My gold has done better for the past few years, so what? It's called "rotation", and silver is next.

    I remember wanting to sell my stack when the economy tanked but I remember thinking nah, just in case.. well, turns out I needed the money much more by the time 2012 rolled around, and was shocked silver was $50. I sold almost everything. I have no regrets at all.

    Though, I really only recently realized how this had nothing to do with foresight, skill, or careful planning. I kinda just fell into it. But, it was still great. I'm very glad to have stacked when I did and sold when I did.

    you apparently don't see the profit in volatility. While gold maintains dollar value and nothing more, silver provides investment opportunity. Done properly a stack through reinvestment grows at no cost. So while you're casting stones at others by assuming they paid out of pocket for all the silver they hold they are laughing all the way to the cash out.

    @blitzdude said:
    Now I will many times throw a slabbed collectable coin in the stack provided it's gold or silver and it can be purchased for melt value or less. I love pre-33 US gold for this very reason, I get to stack real money while some out there also believe them to have an additional collectable value. Somewhat of a hedge against the pure bullion play I guess. So long as we don't become some 3rd world country that drifts into total chaos at which time it could be reasonably assumed that all collectable value would totally vanish. But then I still have the Au.

    Because of their increased risk I 've state numerous times that the trillion$ held by banks in derivatives is bad, especially interest rate derivatives. Because they stand to much to lose in derivatives, their failure would require bailout at the expense of the taxpayer and the users of the currency. Derivatives must be monitored and traded accordingly and should not be traded with other people's money.
