When this poll was started, I thought the chance of silver hitting $50 by April 26th was so far fetched.....so remote.....that I didnt even respond. Im simply amazed that there is not only the possibility, but actually a strong probability that this mark will be hit now!
I did not notice this poll in March. Back then if I had voted the response would have been a resounding "NO". Now as silver flirts with $48 the date seems prescient.
How can you say that without a model? BigRick's model predicts less than 1% chance of silver hitting $50. His model is approaching an infinite number of trials (albeit slowly), trust the mathematical model, not your gut feeling. It can definitely predict the probability of a future price.
Drink his kool-aid! He probably can determine the probability of gold being $2000 on Oct 23, 2017.
Congrats to BigRick on posting a prescient poll on the $50 target on March 7!!! The no votes still are the favorites...but they were sweating bullets overnight. An amazing run for silver so far. I'm too chicken to chase it.
BTW: although I didn't pay any attention to this poll until the past few days, I will admit that had I voted on March 7th, my vote would have been not only No, but He** NO!
Nymex Silver Warehouse Data showed that 25% of Scotia Mocatta’s stored silver reclassified to eligible from registered status. That is about 5,287,142 ounces that is no longer deliverable against the contract.

I think silver is about to drop like a rock, only based on my past luck. I bought 2 ATB sets knowing I have to sell one. I will probably not get it until silver bites the dust if my past luck is any indication.
<< <i>Very unlikely for silver to hit $50 today.... The No's should win. >>
Anything that can drop a few dollars a minute can gain afew dollars a minute and this goes double if the trend is higher. It's only off a couple dollars so might be $50 by the time I hit enter.
The resistance at $50 is only phychological. With real resiostance it takes days or even weeks for all the sellers to physically unload their holdings. But people get used to new concepts like $50 silver much more quickly than they can sell their possessions and, much more importantly, getting used to a new price level doesn't add metal to a market that has to find new owners or stronger hands.
Silver will go up as soon as conditions favor it again and conditions favor it right now since the dollar is down.
<< <i>Silver will go up as soon as conditions favor it again and conditions favor it right now since the dollar is down. >>
The "Nay's" (75%) won this round. It's unlikely that silver will hit $50 in April ... maybe in May? >>
It sure got close though.

Close only counts when playing horseshoes or hand grenades.
Just keep in mind that the 75% of us that were right really have no idea what the price is going to do for any given period of time (it could just as easily have gone to $55 during this period). Unless you are on the inside with The Bernank and his merry band of Banksters you can't have any idea what is going to happen during a specific time period. Educated guesses are important, but let's not fool ourselves into thinking we really know what is going to happen.

It's obvious, you and I did not anticipate such a quick drop so soon after all the jubilation? I'm beginning to think that $50 silver for 2011 is down to a 50% chance of occurrence.

Do you suppose everyone thought that everyone was going to sell at $50 and wanted to beat that bunch to sell? $50 did seem like an artificial peak. Now everyone is trying to cut their loses. It'll come back.
Lift your eyes and listen. Don't miss this. If the present European financial crisis sneaks out from the pen the Nice Government Men presently have it trapped in, then silver will lose badly against gold. and this correction business will drag out a long time. If the NGM and their running dogs do their job and keep the panic penned up, then the gold/silver ratio will bottom sometime by end July, probably end-June. Thus the worse the crisis gets, the further silver will drop

Would you care to wager a 1 oz silver bar on that statement? >>
Bet ya a silver maple against your silver bar that by midnight July 1, 2011 silver will have hit $50 an ounce. If it hits before July 1, PM for mailing instructions. If it hasn't hit by July 1 PM me your mailing address and remind me of the wager. Deal?

Proud recipient of two "You Suck" awards
Prob. of hitting $50 approx 4.5%
fyi: the May 50 calls are currently bidding a grand & hit a high of 4 grand overnight!
"...He probably can determine the probability of gold being $2000 on Oct 23, 2017..."
Not precisely
BUT
for 10/23 - 181 days - (using the Dec. Futures as the underlying):
Prob. of hitting $2,000 .19%
Prob. of closing above $2,000 .10%
Edit to update w/out a bump: Silver now down over $3 from its overnight high (46.75 vs. 49.82).
BTW: although I didn't pay any attention to this poll until the past few days, I will admit that had I voted on March 7th, my vote would have been not only No, but He** NO!

Yes, it would appear so but the run Sunday night almost made it - within pennies. To bad we weren't playing horses shoes.

Furthermore, I have my doubts that gold will hit $1600 this year. I'll go with JPM prediction of $1575 for a high late this year.
