Peter Schiff : the vast majority of the correction is now over in the silver market

Peter Schiff : now there is more upside potential than downside risk in the silver market ,  the vast majority of the correction is over


Peter Schiff : ...nothing goes up on a straight line silver had certainly gone ahead of itself the gold silver ratio was way in silver's favor in a very short period of time , so it makes sense that we have a pull back especially from a level like fifty ($50/oz) which was the record high going back to 1980 so it certainly makes sense that we got a pull back ..now the catalyst could have been Bin Laden but Peter Schiff doubts it that could be a coincidence a lot of time the markets look for any kind of catalyst to do what they want to do anyway and it's clear that a lot of speculators got into the market

The gold price has been supported by further weakening the dollar. The price of silver has held its exceptional rather abruptly to rise. The futures maturing in July has lost 5.2% to $ 46.08 an ounce. During the meeting, the silver price has come down by 13%, the biggest intraday drop since October 2008.

The measure has forced many small speculators to close their positions.this pullback in silver price is a Golden Opportunity to buy Physical Silver

Silver the Osama Effect

Silver gained 500% in two years

NOT ALL that glitters is gold, but silver is another matter Silver always shines despite today's correction . Paraphrasing one of the most abused proverbs, that could be the summary of what happened today in the markets and, in particular, on the commodities market. since the Announcement by the U.S. authorities of the killing of Osama Bin Laden, all commodities prices have started to decline . But the psychological effect on players did not last long, because analysts have noted that the death of Osama - as in the top of the wanted list - is not enough by itself to declare the end of the Muslim-inspired terrorism. Much more important, at this moment, it would not end of the war  in Libya. Thus, gold and crude oil have already rebounded late in the morning, coinciding with the decline of European stock exchanges, which is then accentuated after the start of Wall Street.

But not all commodities have followed the path of gold and oil. That was thew case of silver. Traders have sold futures on precious metals with both hands and in the early stages of the session options causing the silver price to plunge by 12%, the largest decline in its history! . There was then a recovery in the rest of the day, but prices have remained in negative territory.

But how to interpret the trend of the price of silver? The negative reaction is
explained by the fact that silver is one of the more sought after by industry and arms traders, in the early hours after the announcement of the death of Osama,The markets thought that there may be a slowdown in demand for military equipment. In fact, demand is already falling for some time because of the crisis of sovereign debt (states must cut the budget and do so even in the defense sector).

The answer, then, is, as often happens, in a speculative movement. From the lows of 2008 to $ 8.453 per ounce of silver has doubled its value ($ 17,960 / oz) last August, and then accelerate up to $ 49.831 (new top for the last 31 years) just last Monday, with an appreciation almost 500% in two and a half years. The precious metal, which in recent years has suffered a deterioration in demand for industrial use (especially in the field of photography with the advent of digital technology), now seems destined to have a new life. The silver industrial demand may increase due to new uses in the field of photovoltaic solar panels.

In addition, it should be noted that silver is a safe haven by excellence, given its chronic shortage: the world demand exceeded the annual production since 1990.

Silver crashed because Osama Died?!?!?!?

Silver prices tumbled on Monday, making their biggest loss since late 2008 by news that al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden was killed in a U.S.-led operation in Pakistan .Osama Bin Laden is dead, President Obama announced Sunday night, in a televised address to the nation.Seems those of us in the PM camp are a little unimpressed with the Osama news, in fact, most seem a little skeptical given the huge, suspicious drop in silver prices ,price is what it was 7 days ago so I look the dip as nothing but a useless attempt to manipulate silver when most markets were offline. The have done nothing but won themselves back 7 days of hikes.This is a great opportunity to buy more silver as the price is not going to stay this low for long time I believe ....

Eric Sprott : the real story now is silver

In an interview with the Canadian newspaper The Glob and Mail Eric Sprott Chairman, CEO & Portfolio Manager of Sprott Asset Management said that he believed that Silver is the real story now and it will out perform Gold :     "I think gold is the reserve currency today. There is not a currency in the world that it hasn't appreciated against by at least 300 per cent. And it has beaten every stock market. You can't even rent a safety deposit box in Germany because they are all full of gold and silver ... I am pretty convinced that gold will go a lot higher because it is under-owned as only 1 per cent of people's money is in it. It could go to $2,000 an ounce. I could imagine it at $5,000. I am not giving a time frame on that, but I could certainly see that happening. But the real story now is silver. Gold has traded at a ratio of 16-to-1 to silver in terms of price, but today it trades in the range of 50 to 1. I think the gold-to-silver ratio is going to go back to 16 to 1 given the passage of time, say three to five years. And I bet you that silver overshoots. The gold-to-silver ratio may even get down to 10 to 1. I believe that the price of silver has been suppressed."

James Turk : the silver physical market is very tight

James Turk on Goldseek Radio 26 Apr 2011

the silver physical market is very tight says James Turk of goldmoney.com : I am anticipating a waterfall decline of the dollar in not a very distant future , as we are getting close to June when the FED have to decide whether to stop the Quantitative easing or stop it , but the reality is I do not see how they can stop Quantitative easing says James Turk ,and they are afraid to get off , giving that the politicians in Washington continue to spend like there is no tomorrow that debt got to be financed somewhere and it is going to be financed by the printing press that's very very inflationary , ...the market ios tight it has been tight for quite some time and silver remains in backwardation where the spot month is higher than the futures contracts in December 2015 and that's about a 65 cent backwardation which is very very rare event but it's an indication of how tight the physical market is , what's happening here is that the paper market is becoming less important as a price discovery mechanism , and people are putting more emphasis on the physical market , so when you look at valuing the physical metal you hold do not look at the paper market look at the physical market what thee deals are actually doing and you'll see that actually the market is very very tight ...and you have backwardation concessions in silver these are likely to continue....

There is NO Upper Price Limit in Silver

There is NO Upper Price Limit in Silver period....



Our friend w0tm is an engineer he knows silver from inside out concerning its electrical and thermal properties , he is also very invested in silver , silver is the investment of the century as says Mike Maloney you should not miss the train and regret it later on , the train of silver did not even start moving yet , you are still in time to jump in , I PERSONALLY I AM STILL BUYING SILVER CAUSE AT THESE PRICES IT IS A STEAL , AND THERE IS NO UPPER LIMIT FOR SILVER IT IS NOT $50 NOT EVEN $60 , SILVER IS GOING TO GO MUCH MUCH HIGHER , James Turk said that $60 dollars is the next resistance barrier some other experts believe that silver topped and we are headed for a big correction , personally I agree with Bob Chapman , silver and gold are real money not an investment when I buy silver I am preserving my wealth from the printing presses of Bernanke , I am not making a short term investment , bottom line buy silver anytime you can and hold it for the long run , if you buy to make a quick profit this is not the right market for you... and remember silver is finite and it is being used up and depleted

Jim Rogers : Silver going to over $100 an ounce

Jim Rogers : ...the thing that caught people's attention is that gold was going up so much that's the wrong way to invest , Look I own gold I own silver but where were these guys five years ago ten years ago that's when they should have ben doing all of this (buying huge amounts of silver) unfortunately for all of us most investors do not notice something until there is nice bull market in place such as with gold and silver , after ten years of price rises in gold people are starting to notice ...and yes there will be more people buying gold eventually everybody is going to own gold and then we will have to sell our gold but that's a long way from now ....
If silver continues a parabolic move I have to worry , all parabolic bubbles pops at the end , unless there is a currency crash , if silver goes up to $150 without a currency collapse I would worry says Jim Rogers


Jim Rogers started trading the stock market with $600 in 1968.In 1973 he formed the Quantum Fund with the legendry investor George Soros before retiring, a multi millionaire at the age of 37. Rogers and Soros helped steer the fund to a miraculous 4,200% return over the 10 year span of the fund while the S&P 500 returned just 47%.

James Turk : silver is still a cheap form of gold

James Turk of Gold Money Report talks about Gold and Silver 's slow day. Mr. James Turk reveals that he sees no resistance after Silver breaks through the historic $50 barrier.


James Turk : we almost touched $50 /oz silver in Asia , then we backed off a little bit , the markets today are closed in Europe for the 4 days Easter holiday so it will be interesting to see what happens when they come back tomorrow , given the amount of the buying power that we are seeing in the market you have to assume that we will be seeing higher prices in the weeks ahead , once we are over $50/oz there is no resistance as the way I see it says James Turk , go back and look at the DOW when we went over a thousand back in 1982 it just kept going and going and going , the same thing could be happening here with silver for the next couple of years , because the supply /demand picture is very good and everybody knows the problems with the US dollar ...silver is still a cheap form of gold on historical averages and that's attracting a lot of people into the market ...
