Eric Sprott : if only three percent in one day demanded physical delivery there will be no silver on the COMEX

Eric Sprott : ..Silver is the best recommendation anyone can make this decade...I have always looked at silver and gold as a situation where the demand will exceed the supply , and when I looked at gold in the last decade we had a great change in from the demand side where central banks used to be sellers and became buyers , we used to have no ETFs now we have ETFs we used to have mining companies with hedge now they don't hedge and the shifts in ownership had been dramatic in a market where we really see no rise in supply , in the case of silver what really turned me on about twelve months ago was as we witness people buying silver you realize there would not be enough silver to buy and as example the US mint today sells as many dollars of silver as dollars of gold , when you realize that silver trades at forty to one ratio means that they are buying at forty times of physical ounces of silver as they are buying gold , when we sold our gold ETF we raised 440 million , when we sold our silver ETF we raised 550 million , James Turk of Gold Money he sells more dollars of silver than gold we have a little company called Sprott money that sells gold and silver coins , we sell way more dollars of silver than Gold and so here we are in a situation where the price is forty to one but the dollars going in to it are almost dead equal , so I can't see the price ratio staying in this range ...
we have been a net buyer of silver everyday , I will be a buyer of silver today I will be a buyer of silver tomorrow so we have not lost any faith in what's happen to silver ...what happened last week in mind is just another of those raids that we experience from time to time ...there was no particular reason for it , then we end up with five margin request increases , somebody is manipulating the price of silver and that's totally my attitude I have no fear of silver here , yes it will be parabolic but it will be more parabolic than we have today I have always thought that silver would trade at 16 to one ratio in terms of price to gold to make it simple if we measure gold at $1600 that would suggest that silver may go to $100 , I think it might even over shoot on the downside may be trade as much as ten to one , and the reason I think that is that I believe that Gold today is the De Facto reserve currency it has out performed everything for eleven years , Silver has always been a currency people are now treating it as a currency much as you are recommending to people , i is a very very small market there is no way that with roughly fifty billion dollars of silver inventory around that we can make it a currency at these price levels so I see the price going much higher ....
I think last week decline was premeditated it happened in the early hours of Sunday/Monday morning when markets were not re-operating England was closed China was closed it was a great opportunity just to mark it down ...so I think it was very much orchestrated , one thing that I think we should all look at is the trading of silver in the paper market which I mean the COMEX and the SLV last week it probably averaged 1.2 billion ounces per day , there is only 700 million ounces mined in a year there is only 33 million ounces of physical silver at the COMEX available for delivery by the commercial shorters . I mean if only something like 3 percent of the people that were trading silver 3 percent in one day demanded physical delivery there will no silver in the COMEX , so I look at those paper markets and I just believe it's paper it's guys pushing buttons who have really no invested interest in silver other than trying to move the price one way or guess which way the price is going ...so...

John Embry & James Turk on the Physical Silver Shortage

John Embry Chief Investment Strategist at Sprott Asset Management discusses the recent correction in the silver price with James Turk, Director of the GoldMoney Foundation: ....I think the rise to the recent $50 peak believe it or not was justified and it is funny when you read the main stream press everybody is talking about bubbles and how big the crash is going to be , they would not seem to understand the fundamentals I think the fundamentals of silver are impeccable , the fact that we are going through a tough crash is not surprising it's a paper driven COMEX sponsored correction and it's to be expected , I mean if you have been involved in silver market as long as we have at Sprott we're used to these things they are not fun but it is another buying opportunity ... The paper market probably drives the prices most of the time when the physical takes over is when the physical shortage takes place and what's going on right now is very clearly there is a massive short position in...

Robert Kiyosaki : Gold and Silver are pretty safe bets

Robert Kiyosaki is not buying Gold and Silver right now but he is still bullish on them : No , but that does not mean I am not bullish on Gold and Silver , the problem with Gold and Silver I say it again I can't borrow money to buy three million dollar worth of gold I have to use my money I won't use debt , other people's money , number two there is no cash flow from that I don't have income from it so and If I have to sell it I have to pay 28 percent in tax , I'd rather put my money on oil project where I got 28 percent tax break right away , that makes more sense to me , at the same time I am still now investing in copper and natural gas because they are all time lows ...when something starts to move like gold and silver I am on to the next venture should I say , and I made my money in gold and silver , I made enough ....when asked if it is safer to buy silver now Robert Kiyosaki says : you should have bought it when it was three bucks that's when I bought so...look I want to say this : I do not like gold and silver simply because of the tax issue in it , if you buy an ETF like SLV or GLD you pay 28 percent tax that's because the government does not like gold and silver because they rather have you play with their dollars their fraudulent US Dollars the counterfeit money , so gold and silver is good and when I say to most people who don't now anything , gold and silver are better than saving money cash , another thing is this , when I look at the world I look at ten year increment here's 2010 going into 2020 those ten year period , in those coming ten years 85 million baby boomers start to retire that's approximately a hundred trillion dollars in social security and medicare the question I have for you : can Obama or the US Congress and the senate can they solve a hundred trillion dollars deficit , I say no they can't so that's why I'll continue to buy gold and silver if I have an extra cash that's what I do ..I love my country I just do not trust my leaders I don't think they are going to solve this problem democrats republicans independent Buddhists christian Hindu Jewish I do not care they can't solve this problem ...China is in a massive problem right now ...so it is not what the politicians are gonna do , it is what you gonna do about it right now , so if you don't know much Gold and Silver are pretty safe bets but not from the tax side from the capital gain side simply because the United States is in a very serious financial trouble and I do not think republicans or democrats are gonna fix the problem...I think we are going down , I think the dollar is going to dive and that's why I am in oil production I am in rental real estate because people have to have a roof over their head and silver has already made its move but it still has more to go I think I do not think 200 dollars silver is out of line but I have already bought it at 4 dollars ,5 dollars 7 dollars I bought as high as 17 dollars then I stopped if you read my blogs I said buy Silver under twenty and sure enough in the last year it has got up a 145 percent went right past twenty...

Gold, Silver Futures Slump in New York as Dollar Strengthens Against Euro

Another bad day today for the precious metals , The price of silver losing a further 8%, gold sinking back to the $ 1,500 level. The prices of silver and gold have recorded significant losses today. The CME Group the company that manages the NYMEX (New York Mercantile Exchange), has announced two further increases of the initial deposit required to secure transactions on the futures on silver. The news sparked a new shower of precious metals sales. The expiring July futures on silver at the NYMEX closed in fall of 8% to $ 36.24 an ounce. It was the strongest drop in session since December 2008. Since last Friday the price of silver has lost 25.4%. The gold futures expiring in June ended in a fall of 2.2% to $ 1,481.40 an ounce. It's been three weeks that the gold price did not close at these levels. To add to downward pressure on the precious metal was now also the strong recovery of the dollar. The greenback has appreciated against the euro by about 2%. The jump in the dollar weighed on all commodities in general.

Dollar going up? Silver & Gold going DOWN? The Market manipulation continues

The bigger this sham gets the harder its going to fall and the higher Silver and Gold prices will go .Silver and gold are the only monetary units worth considering. That is why Silver and Gold are a manipulated market - to give the appearance of confidence in fiat currencies, not precious metals.Stick with the silver.With paper the banks have an advantage of being flexible with time and inflation contraction. Metals are not a scheme they are honest measures and you have to keep that in mind that honesty doesn't win all battles just the wars. Doubt the USD will stay intact. It's having a bounce. What's that mean? China buys more silver.  They are big enough to move the market. They also want it cheap too so they want the USD strong and silver cheap for now. Sometime soon enough the USD will sink hard, maybe with more world turmoil and silver will more than make up for lost time. Their whole game is deception,,making make the wrong move. The USD could go all the way to 77, but the Euro likely would be dropping at the same time. So Europeans will be getting into metals then and pushing the price up along with China. I think the Euro may be junk pretty soon now. There are many forces involved, but there is too much infighting in the E.U.

Physical silver market vs paper silver market

physical silver market and paper silver market are now two different markets. As is gold. No more tie. Never will again. Physical silver will continue to climb as scarcity becomes acute. Then what! Free for all. China sopping up all available physical silver. No limit to how much paper silver you can print. What can you do with it?  Make paper airplanes I guess.


All roads seem to lead to Soros....the move in Silver and timing was done masterfully...silver will still return 18%-20% annually on average over the next 5 years at the minimum despite volatility and cartel attacks...sure beats the banks.
JPM JP Morgan Chase , HSBC are naked short on a 45 to one (nine to one is normal) Silver they are naked they can't deliver so they have decided they are gonna drive the price down as far as they could , and what they did , and here remember that Morgan is the biggest share holder in the Federal Reserve Bank , and HSBC Goldman Sachs Citi Group they're all involved , and they're the owners of the FED , they told the CME which owns the COMEX to raise margin requirements never in history have they raised them five times in nine days , now if that's not rigging the market I do not know what it is ...and I have been for 29 years in the brokerage business on top of that what they did is they called all the major commodity brokers and told them they wanted them to recommend that commodities be sold especially gold and silver , and to double the internal margin in their firms ....that wiped out every small investors in commodities and gold and silver and many of the middle sized ones and this is what they did one of the biggest market manipulations of all times , billions of dollars were lost ...The moral of the story is: if you own physical there is nothing they can do to you...the Federal Reserve as "Federal" as Federal Express can try all day to manipulate the price but Ben Bernanke is not going to be able to touch your personal stash. Now when you start playing the casino of silver paper contracts then you open yourself up to the whims of the banksters. I will never sell my physical stash.

Is This 1980 all over again for Silver ?

Some people may think : this is just like 1980 all over again and that silver price will now collapse just as it did in 1980. In 1980 silver prices rose to a height of $48.70/oz from their normal price of $5/oz.Silver prices increased ten times their previous levels.There was a was high fuel costs and terrible inflation. People wanted to change their paper money into hard assets like silver. This started driving prices up and up. At the same time the Hunt brothers, oil tycoons from Texas, bought two hundred million ounces of silver options and futures. This caused terrible shortages and drove prices sky high.The brothers were estimated to hold one third of the entire world supply of silver.But on January 7, 1980, came the response of The COMEX the exchange rules regarding leverage were changed , The COMEX adopted "Silver Rule 7" placing heavy restrictions on the purchase of commodities on margin . As a consequence The price of Silver dropped 50% in just four days , The Hunt brothers who had borrowed heavily to finance their purchases, lost one Billion dollars (but their fortune survived) , Does not this look so similar to what happened last week with the CME  raising the margin requirements 5 times in nine days ? ,  the truth is that the amount of money the FED have printed up since 1980 is ten times higher, so if we adjust for inflation, the peak price from 1980 should be more like $500/oz. in today's dollars and not just $49 . What this tells us is that silver is still very very undervalued and as Mike Maloney told Max Keiser in an interview this morning "silver has yet to exceed its 1980 High we came within a breath of it but it hasn't exceeded its 1980 high , can you name one thing on this planet that is still selling at a discount to its 1980 price !?"

silver has yet to exceed its 1980 High , can you name one thing on this planet that is still selling at a discount to its 1980 price

Mike Maloney : as far as the sell-off goes I really do not care , well actually I do I am hoping silver will go down a little bit more because I want to buy more , I want a lot more . silver has yet to exceed its 1980 High we came within a breath of it but it hasn't exceeded its 1980 high , can you name one thing on this planet that is still selling at a discount to its 1980 price !? ...
the dollar is on its death bed , the Euro is on the verge of break out , people do not realize that every 30 to 40 years the world has a new monetary system , the dollar is doomed , gold is going to go to infinity so is silver, measuring gold and silver in dollar is idiotic , gold is not anywhere near a bubble , silver is money just like gold , the dollar is a currency not money ....when gold and silver are in the run away it means that the death of the currency is right around the corner , the Hunt brothers were used as the sacrificial lamb to save the US Dollar , the precious metals always always win
