The Silver Price & CFTC | David Morgan & James Turk

David Morgan and James Turk discuss gold and silver prices and the gold/silver ratio. Video recorded on November 6, 2010 , Edelmetallmesse in Munich, Germany.


In general our advice is to accumulate silver and gold regardless the increase in price in terms of paper currency. Eventually you will need to spend parts of your gold and silver. Either because you need some paper currency to buy for day-to-day things or because silver and gold once again circulate as money, as they should. In the latter case you will spend silver and gold just as you now spend your paper currency.

Out of Control Chaos Coming with Shortages of Gold, Silver, Food, Gasoline and More - Jim Willie

Jim Willie CB Proprietor, GoldenJackass.com Editor, Hat Trick Letter The man behind the name Jim Willie has experience in three important fields of statistical practice in the 23 years following completion of a PhD in Statistics at Carnegie Mellon University. He spent time since 2001 in a private consulting firm in Pittsburgh, PA. His work included pharmaceutical and medical claim estimation, stratified sampling for consumer packaged goods market share, training seminars in advanced regression models, and consulting toward various other projects within the firm. In August of 2003, he became a low-cost solution at his firm, and since then has focused exclusively on the US and world economies, financial markets, currencies, and the commodity fields. Gold and energy have been a prime focus. Jim spent five years at the corporate headquarters of Staples in suburban Boston in the last half of the 1990 decade. Work focused upon forecasting and sales analysis for their retail business, but also for the catalog and internet business. His retail floor labor scheduling program integrated several forecasts across the entire retail chain of over 1000 stores. Retail models, seasonality estimation, marketing effects, price elasticity analysis, all supported either the forecast process or profit margin enhancement. During his time at Staples, the company quadrupled in revenues and store count nationwide. At Digital Equipment Corporation in suburban Boston, Jim worked for nine years in a unique zero-profit center within the company, one totally dedicated to marketing research on Digital products and the computer industry. Large strategic studies and smaller product studies were completed in the hundreds by a staff of 12. Strategic studies incorporated orthogonal fractional factorial designs, for evaluating various product feature combinations and industry directions. Product studies helped to enhance design and development. All datasets were analyzed exhaustively for useful information on perceptions, preferences, drivers, trends, usage, and demographics. However, extreme errors of judgment by senior executives resulted in the rapid decline in the company, departure of the best and brightest leaders, severe reduction in its workforce, and eventual acquisition by Compaq, then later by Hewlett Packard, which now manages his defined benefit pension. Sadly, many younger people have not even heard of the second largest computer mfg firm behind IBM in the 1980 and 1990 decades. HP took a large portion of Digital’s customer base. Also at Digital, before the marketing research post, Jim worked for five years as a quality control consultant to the manufacturing organizations. He authored a DEC Engineering Specification which was integrated at all 28 mfg plants worldwide. It streamlined the stress testing of units from the assembly lines, with significant savings from reduced test time. Over a seven-year period, its implementation reduced mfg costs corporate-wide by between $250 and $300 million. Those were days of considerable fat in the US mfg arena, however. A few of his colleagues from Digital days remain trusted friends and analysts.

Silver is in a Shortage David Morgan

David Morgan (Myths and Misinformation in the Silver Market)
Silver Demand: Sentiment and Trends - Myths in the Silver Market



Silver Demand: Sentiment and Trends

A quiet battle is being fought in the silver market between investment interests and industrial demand.

The world is finally waking up to the fact that governments can take the real silver money out of circulation, but they cannot take the money out of silver as a commodity.

Silver as Money - Silver as Money - Silver as Money -

Silver as Money -

Silver still has monetary demand among investors concerned about the long term viability of paper currencies and their inherent inflationary tendencies. Silver is also easier to set aside for hard times than stock piling food, fuel, and other items for barter.

Despite its historical monetary usage, silver is currently not as easy to use for everyday purchases in the United States as the U.S. Dollar. Nevertheless, silver is a highly liquid commodity that can readily be exchanged for U.S. Dollars, which can then be used to purchase goods or services.

Price Drives Sentiment -

Since the U.S. Dollar price of silver is measured in terms of a paper debt instrument that is being created at an unprecedented rate without any hard assets backing it up, silver's price should be trending higher in Dollar terms.

The upward trend in silver is also established since investment grade physical silver is getting harder and harder to come by for individuals interested in protecting their wealth against the risks inherent in holding paper currencies.

The vast majority of investors will likely miss the great silver rally, especially given what comes to mind for most people is an association with the Hunt brothers, coin collecting and even Mad Max scenarios.


Bullish Silver Sentiment Could Prompt an Industrial Shortage -

Unfortunately for silver bulls, the price discovery mechanism for silver is still driven by the few bullion banks who dominate the short side of the paper futures market. Despite that, a broad based investor-led silver rally could well occur once the price floor for silver becomes well established above the $50 level.

Furthermore, given the ongoing competition between silver investors who tend to be sentiment driven and industrial demand that tends toward the slow and steady accumulation of physical silver, once an industrial shortage of physical silver develops, it could already be too late to invest in silver.

Thats Maloneys .Great discussion I think a lot of us was taken in by the Mike Maloney, Chris Duane bullish (tulip mania) talk. But this has been a learning curve for all of us, and the mantra "don't get involved emotionally in your investment" has to be learned sometimes the hard way!

Suing JPMorgan and the COMEX -- Ted Butler

I’ve had some recent conversations with attorneys who were considering class-action lawsuits regarding a gold price manipulation stemming from reports about the London Gold Fix. I told them that while there is no doubt that gold and, particularly, silver are manipulated in price, I didn’t see how the manipulation stemmed from the London Fix. I wished them well and hoped that they may prevail (the enemy of my enemy is my friend), because you never know – if the lawyers dig deep enough they might find the real source of the gold and silver manipulation, namely, the COMEX (owned by the CME Group) and JPMorgan.
So I thought it might be constructive to lay out what I thought a successful lawsuit might look like, although I’m speaking as a precious metals analyst and not as a lawyer. I’ll try to put the whole thing into proper perspective, including the premise and scope of the manipulation as well as the parties involved.

The first thing I should mention is how unprecedented it is that I’m writing this in the first place. Here I am, directly and consistently accusing two of the world’s most important financial institutions of market manipulation (making sure I send each all my accusations) and I have received no complaint from either. I don’t think that has ever occurred previously. Now I am taking it one step further; presenting a guide for how and why JPMorgan and the CME should be sued for their manipulation of gold and silver (and copper, too).

Ted Butler : Wait for the Silver Shortage to end the Manipulation -- March 20 2014

Instead of simply waiting for the silver shortage to end the manipulation, I thought it advisable to try a new approach that was completely compatible with the real silver story to date. Since I (we) couldn’t get the CFTC to do its job and end the manipulation; why not try a different approach? The truth is that I have long believed that the right civil lawsuit stood a good chance at ending the manipulation before a silver shortage hit. I had high hopes initially that the class-action suit that was filed against JPMorgan for manipulating the price of silver a few years ago might succeed; but it seemed to drift off track and I wasn’t particularly surprised that it was ultimately dismissed. My intent should be clear – I want to see the next lawsuit succeed.
The stakes in a COMEX silver/gold/copper manipulation lawsuit are staggering. Not only is market manipulation the most serious market crime possible, the markets that have been manipulated and the number of those injured are enormous. I don’t think it’s an exaggeration to say that any finding that JPMorgan and the COMEX did manipulate prices as I contend could very well result in the highest damage awards in history. That’s no small thing considering the tens of billions of dollars that JPMorgan has coughed up recently for infractions in just about every line of their business. - Silver analyst Ted Butler: 19 March 2014   -- in the street.com

There is a shortage of ALL precious metals compared to other metals, that's why they are considered precious. Its just how rare they are at the time. It depends on what one means by shortage. 
Of course, the important question is whether in the future silver will be an industrial metal or a monetary metal. If it is the former then the abundance of supply will be a critical factor impacting the future valuation of the metal. If it is a monetary metal then above ground stocks to flow will be so large that production will be a very small fraction of above ground stocks.

Experts predict silver shortage in near future

Silver market watchers believe the metal’s dual role as an investment and industrial asset will cause demand to exceed supply in the near future, according to a report by Charlotte McLeod for Silver Investing News.

Andrew Chaning, co-founder of silver exploration and mining company, PureFund, admitted to Silver Investing News: “We’re entering an era where we’re seeing a tug of war between investment demand and industrial demand. I think what people aren’t even considering as a possibility is a potential supply shortage in silver as a result of this squeeze from demand.”

Insiders suggest base metal mine closures (where silver is often produced as a by-product), increasing industrial applications and growing investment demand could force the market into a shortage situation.

Survey: Is a Silver Supply Shortage on the Horizon?

By Charlotte McLeod

Silver, it seems, is everywhere. The precious metal’s dual role as both an investment and industrial metal means that while it can be bought physically or in paper form by investors, it also has myriad technological and medical applications.

It’s in part because of those many uses that some silver market watchers think at some point — perhaps in the near future — demand for the metal will exceed supply, creating a shortage.

Andrew Chanin, co-founder of the PureFunds ISE Junior Silver ETF (ARCA:SILJ), is one person who believes that’s what’s in the cards. He told Silver Investing News (SIN) in a recent interview that “we’re entering an era where we’re seeing a tug of war between investment demand and industrial demand. I think what people aren’t even considering as a possibility is a potential supply shortage in silver as a result of this squeeze from demand.”

Speaking to Mining Weekly at the Toronto-based PDAC convention earlier this month, Chanin expanded on that statement, giving three reasons why he thinks a supply crunch is in store for silver. Those reasons are:

    Mine closures: Several base metals mines, said Chanin, are expected to be depleted in the medium term. While that may not sound like a problem for silver, the fact that the metal is often produced by base metals mines as a by-product means their closure could be an issue.

David Morgan on the Gold/Silver Ratio

With a Gold back currency Gold will be much higher than $4,000. Right now to back up every US dollar Gold would be $15,000! This is why there is a Gold rush right now from the JP Morgan vaults or the comex Vaults are running out of Gold and Russia and China is buying more Gold than the world produces so there is a Gold shortage!! Don't forget silver to Gold ratio is falling father apart as time goes on today it's 64-1 and it has been in the 90's-1 for a few years and wouldn't be surprise to see that ratio again because of a Gold shortage and more surplus of silver on the market! Thanks for watching and commenting. Silver is a fast money maker get in low and sell high and gold is the store of wealth which us why banks and countries store Gold
