Gold Silver Ratio

Gold and Silver Ratio in History :



The price of silver has been notoriously volatile as it can fluctuate between industrial and store of value demands. At times this can cause wide ranging valuations in the market, creating volatility.

Silver often tracks the gold price due to store of value demands, although the ratio can vary. The gold/silver ratio is often analyzed by traders, investors and buyers. In 1792, the gold/silver ratio was fixed by law in the United States at 1:15, which meant that one troy ounce of gold would buy 15 troy ounces of silver; a ratio of 1:15.5 was enacted in France in 1803. The average gold/silver ratio during the 20th century, however, was 1:47. The lower the ratio/number, the more expensive silver is compared to gold. Conversely the higher the ratio/number, the cheaper silver is compared to gold.
Silver price manipulation is evident in the gold to silver price ratio which should average between 10 and 20. That is, for every ounce of gold, you should be able to buy 10 to 20 ounces of silver.

You can, at the time of recording, buy 78 times the amount of silver than gold for the same money - and yet there is a major silver shortage!

The lenders of Silver are depleting their reserves faster than it is being mined and with the recent downturn - even less mining will occur and even less silver production will eventuate as its price gets close (at some stages below) the cost of production.Silver reserves approaching ZERO. Price explosion must follow!

• Right now it takes 42 ounces of silver to buy 1 oz. of Gold. (42 to 1)

• 700,000,000 ounces of silver was mined in 2009 versus 80,000,000 ounces of gold, which is about a 9 to 1 ratio.

• There was an estimated 40 Billion ounces ever mined of silver versus an estimated 5.3 Billion ounces of gold. That ratio is 7.5 to 1 ratio.

Silver has been consumed as an industrial metal, whereas gold has been cherished as a precious metal forever. As a result, there is still about 5 billion ounces of gold in the world. Silver inventories, on the other hand, have been decimated, with only an estimated 5 billion ounces now above ground. The other 39 billion ounces are in the landfills of the world in amounts too tiny to recover economically at today’s absurdly low silver prices. Maybe if the price of silver rises significantly enough, we will see massive recovery efforts in Staten Island.

•Historically the Silver/Gold Ratio has been 16/1 to 10/1, meaning that silver is presently about 4x undervalued.

•If the total amount of Gold and Silver above ground is equal to 5 billion ounces, that would put the ratio at 1/1. Thus, silver could be viewed as 42x undervalued!

•Total amount of physical Gold and Silver in monetary/bullion form would put the ratio at 1/5, with silver being 230x undervalued. (So the Silver to Gold ratio is 1 to 5–yes, there is less silver bullion above ground than there is gold.)

So if the price of Gold never went up and was based off of Silver market fundamentals, it should find some market balance. At that point you could, in the extreme case, trade your 42 ounces of silver for 210 ounces of gold! (1/5 silver to gold ratio.)
I agree with Mike Maloney that the gold/silver ratio will go well below the historical 16:1 ratio because of the factors that now exist in the world economy, i.e., historic money printing on a global scale and loss of confidence in the world reserve currency which is the US dollar. There has never been global economic conditions like this before and silver will benefit greatly from it. It's the poor man's gold and is much more accessible to the average person.
Roaring 20s brought it down to 16:1
Great Depression, ratio went to 100:1, no significant industrial use
After the post WW2 boom, it went way down, industrial use and electronics
Early 1970s, US off gold standard and individuals could own gold - look how it went up
Hunt Brothers event bottoming it out at 9:1
Then it went back up, over 90:1 during the recession of the 1990s
Dot-com boom sent it under 60:1
Panic of 2008 sent it over 80:1 - deflation, less industry use
Recent stimulus sent it to 60:1
100 years ago, a Ford factory worker made 5 dollars a day, ( 3.87 oz ) of silver in 5 Morgan dollars.

Today, 3.87oz Ag = $116.

Which is an average wage for a skilled worker.

Also, 100 years ago, 5 Morgan dollars had a similar purchasing power as $116 today.

Silver is not in a bubble.
whatever happens silver will skyrocket its demand from industry is unattainable at this lever n it will have to RISE way above what some experts predicted it will

Mike discusses many things in this documentary, including awareness of the situation, the differences between this market and that of the 1970s, the fact that this is a global phenomenon, and more. Would love to hear your thoughts on what he has to say. Mike Maloney trying to wake up the people out of their delusions of paper money just like Enron which was a fraud and collapsed suddenly so is the Dollar , the dollar is doomed this is the greatest opportunity in history of mankind the greatest wealth transfer in the history of mankind never before had all world currencies been fiat currencies at the same time this is the first time that that happened , there are trillion upon trillions of paper money which soon will be chasing the real hard assets available namely gold and silver ...gold and silver are still massively undervalued....one more thing. if government stop printing, they will not be able to pay back their bond that they issued. and they will default. everyone in the world will realize this and everyone in the world (except US) will just rush into gold because people in the world understand that if US government can default, why trust paper money?

Day of Rebound for Gold and Silver - Gold +1.1%, Silver +4.8%

Precious metals rebound today : Gold +1.1%, +4.8% Silver . The prices of precious metals have closed today in New York with a . The gold futures expiring in June gained 1% to $ 1,495.80 an ounce and silver up 4.8% at $ 35.10 an ounce. The rally in prices of agricultural commodities and oil have made an ​​increase pushed by the fears of inflation by the market . The corn has appreciated by 3.8%, wheat by 7.2% and 3.3% for the crude oil. The prices of precious metals have also benefited from the weakening of the dollar today.It's a Day of rebounds for the precious metal, thanks to the general weakness of the U.S. dollar and despite the very exciting developments in equity markets, given that in recent times, the correlation between equity and commodities has been very strong. Gold is now slightly below the $ 1,500 an ounce mark and 4-hour chart shows an interesting triangle of compression in the coming days (or maybe in the next few hours) could be implemented with a directional movement of relief. The high volatility of the market makes it impossible to make accurate projections in the short term, although it must be said that in the last hour prices were the first bouncing off lows on the support area of $ 1,480 / oz and then the area of $ 1,490 / oz . it is impossible to envisage if the target is upward or downward: in the event of continuation of the upward trend, we can assume a landing area at least $ 1,530 / oz, and if sentiment deteriorates again we can expect a fast return to area $ 1,480 / oz before and $ 1,460 / oz . As for silver, however, currently quoted in the area $ 34.9 - $ 35 an ounce and are in contact with the dynamic resistance of Ema20 about 4 hours. We are dealing with a side stage for several hours and even here a new burst in volatility is possible . Downward eye to the loss of $ 34 / oz, which sheds new area prices to $ 32 / oz. In the event of continuation of the bounce, however, could be considered a landing at 36.5 $ / oz first and then $ 39-40 and up.

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

Max Keiser interviews Eric Sprott on gold and silver prices (12May11) :

Eric Sprott : 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 from the demand side which 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 do not hedge and the shifts in ownerships have been dramatic in a market where we really seen no rise in supply in the case of silver what really turned me on about 12 months ago was as we witnessed people buying silver , you realize that there would not be enough silver to buy and as examples the US mint today sells as many dollars of silver as dollars of gold when you realize that silver trades at 40 to one ratio means they are buying 40 times 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 prices are 40 to one but the dollars going into it are almost dead equal so I can't see the price ratio staying in this range ...we have been a net buyers of silver everyday , I'll be a buyer of silver today , I'll be a buyer of silver tomorrow so we have not lost any faith to what happened to silver ...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 60 to one ratio in terms of prices to gold to make it simple if we measure the gold at $1600 that would suggest that silver could go to $100 I think it might even over shoot downside may be trade as much as 10 to one and the reason I think that is that I believe that gold today is the de facto reserve currency silver has always been a currency people are treating it as a currency , it is a very very small market there is no way that with roughly 50 billion dollar 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 weeks decline was premeditated ....very much orchestrated ...one of the things that I think we should 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 something like 3 percent of the people who are trading silver , three percent in one day demanded physical delivery there will be no silver on the COMEX , so I look at this paper markets and I just believe it's paper it's guys pushing buttons who really have no interest in silver other than trying to move the price one way or guess where the price is going ....I think the key market is the physical market , what the people are doing in terms of converting their fiat over to silver and gold and obviously that has a long momentum today and I do not think this raid is going to work even though it was shocking last week

Eric Sprott : in my own account I own 80 percent in precious metals and I do not lose any sleep over it

Eric Sprott :...well I think historically silver and gold traded at a ratio of 16 to one so for example at 1600 dollar Gold Silver could be a $100 /oz and that goes back over centuries as what the relationship was , i think it will go back there , I think it will probably overshoot just because it has been so mispriced for so long and when i look at the data that supports that view I just look at the purchases of silver here , so for example US Mint so far this month has sold more dollars of silver than they have sold dollars of Gold but the prices are for fifty to one ! well how long are you gonna have the same amount of money going into silver as it is going into gold and the prices be fifty to one and I see it not only in the mint sales , I see it in this company called Goldmoney that sells in the internet they sell more silver than gold , the company we have called Sprott Money sells more dollars in silver than gold so people are moving into silver , Eric Sprott suggests that investors chose the physical silver over the paper certificates .... in my own account own 80 percent in precious metals and I do not lose any sleep over it he said

The managing director of metals products at CME Defends CME's Adjustment of Silver Margin Rules

The allegations that the CME was trying to drive the silver price down is off the mark says Harriet Hunnable, the managing director of metals products at CME Group Inc., talks about the exchange's rules for silver trading. Last week, silver plunged 27 percent, the most since at least 1975, after CME raised margin costs. Silver bugs should look at this as a discount offered to you by the government , you can buy more silver at a discount , silver is money it is not an investment for making a quick buck , hold your silver assets you are sure that they will never lose value over time on the contrary the longer the better ....

Eric Sprott : There is only 700 million ounces mined in a year

Eric Sprott : One of the things we should look at is the trading of silver in the paper markets, I mean the Comex and the SLV. Last week it 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 that is available for delivery by the commercial shorters. If something like 3% of the people that were trading silver in one day demanded physical delivery, there would be no silver on the Comex.... The key market is the physical market. I don't think this raid is going to work." .

The manipulation continues in the silver paper market

Keith Neumeyer, First Majestic Silver president & CEO, sheds insight on why his company's stock is down. : ...."...well, I think there was some short covering going on in the latter part of march and into early April really propelled silver up to close to $50. really silver is going through a rerating right now. and one of the important things to me is a silver producing mining company is that as we rely more on technology, we become more reliant on silver."

How JP MORGAN & HSBC manipulate the SILVER Markets

Even if it is all manipulated, silver is still a better choice to own than paper money. If enough people moved within the silver market and took delivery of their metal, then this artificial economy would end sooner than later. The so called 'Regulators' are no better than the Financial Banksters. A pox on all their mansions.Wall Street is a fraud. The dollar is fiat and done. Goldman Sach are thieves, scum and frauds Govt economic data: a fraud. Comex and The Federal Reserve: frauds Bernanke, Geitner, Paulson, Roubini: frauds Spin masters: Fox, Cnbc, Jim Cramer: frauds Don't get screwed folks stay away from this scum. Stick to owning physical gold and silver bullion and let the music stop.


The metals were liquidated as were stocks of all sectors in Sept-Oct 2008. As there was a panic and all sectors, good and bad were sold. There is a manipulation in the short term but no firm or firms as big as the market. This has been tried before several times (documented) througout the centuries and failed. The bullions will have its top at a mania like previous equities and real estate sectors did. We are in a period of stagflation until 2017-18, that means extremes on both spectrums.

Silver is dirt cheap right now

James Anderson Managing Director at Goldsilver.com : whoever has physical silver in his hands will make the rules , silver below $50 an ounce is at sale , the 1980 high is a nominal high cause the dollars in 1980 are worth a lot more than the dollars in 2011 the money supply exploded since then , the true inflation adjusted all time high is $140 but if you use the more accurate statistics from John Williams it is close to $300 an ounce , having ounces is what matters the question is how many ounces you have in your possession , Silver is on Sale right now keep stacking anybody who have been stacking ounces will be setting pretty . What's happening in America today is similar to what happened in the 80s in Argentina but in slow motion

Bob Chapman : buy the dips don't panic, ride the bull

Bob Chapman: The Financial Powers That Be Are In A Trap of Their Own Making

If Silver goes to 5 an oz that just means I could buy a ton of it. Hahaha Who ever holds paper and has faith in the the paper game WILL LOSE! This may be the greatest exchange of wealth in the history of the world. The people are waking up are going to plunder the bankers by buying silver and gold. Get rid of the Dollar Bill if you know what you're doing...Pretty soon they'll be using it for Toilet Paper...Bye Bye FIAT CURRENCY CRAP.......only a wise people will understand. The dollar is printed out of thin air. You cant print money out of thin air. Gold and silver is honest you cant counterfiet it. George Washington, "Paper money has had the effect in your state it will always have to ruin commerce oppress the poor and honest and open the door for every specie of fraud and injustice."..When we reach the end of this destruction of fiat currencies and the ensuing precious metals bubble, those of us holding physical will probably trade it for real things like necessities of life, homes, and even luxury items. Alternatively, we may trade it for the new gold-backed currency that appears in our locale.
silver investing By Bob Chapman : May 11th, 2011.In legislation just proposed, and I don't know by whom, nor do I have a number yet, the Dept of Labor has proposed a re-definition of who is a fiduciary, not under the Securities laws, but under ERISA, the law that governs tax advantaged retirement accounts, such as 401K and IRAs and it probably will include all retirement assets, we don't have a definite direction yet of what they intend to do but it is my guess they want to limit those investments only to US government debt. They may include some blue chips or funds, I don't know. They may allow other high-graded fixed income products. These DOL-ERISA rules override all SEC rules. We don't know the final form of the legislation, nor do we know whether it will be passed, but my guess it will be. The government desperately needs to get those retirement funds invested in government debt. I would seriously think about terminating 401ks and IRAs by transferring the assets -- without commission -- into a personal account it then becomes a taxable event. I also believe there is a good chance that taxes will be higher next year. There is also an outside chance that retirement assets could be frozen -- such events would be negative on the general market because government would be directing brokerage houses to sell retirement assets. This is all in the planning stage, but it is very real.

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 .

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.

Gold/Silver Rising on Central Bank Buying -11/05/11

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

Robert Kiyosaki Is Predicting A $6,000/oz. Silver In The Next Few Years

Due to decades of industrial consumption depleting world inventories, there is remarkably little silver remaining above ground . Most people still have no clue about the potential for the silver metal price.Robert Kiyosaki made the following future silver price prediction of $6,000 during an interview on FTM Daily in November. An estimated one billion ounces of silver bullion equivalent exists above ground today that is shockingly small amount of silver especially when you compared to the amount of money and credit in the world trillions and trillions dollars will be chasing silver bullion

Reasons to Be Bullish on Silver

Silver is a MUST for a modern Hightech economy

Golds great its REAL MONEY (just like Silver) because it cant be printed at will by Criminal Banksters

But Silver is also KEY to Technology

Silver is the ONLY THING KNOWN THAT CAN KILL VIRAL PATHOGENS (and it works BETTER than Anti-Biotics on Bacterial ones)...Stop into your local GNC HEALTHFOOD STORE and pick up a bottle of their "Silver Biotics" and check it out!

Once the world understands this Silver will be values HIGHER THAN GOLD
Silver would be easy to use for change and would be easier to dispose of when trading. It is not a matter of if the dollar will crash but when. When it does crash the blackmarket economy will flourish because goods will be scarce and expensive. Silver and gold will be recognized as a barter medium that is stable.
Until Silver trades at some LOGICAL LEVEL to Gold it has a TON Of Catch to do.

I mean just look at the data from the world mines.The simple FACT is that we only pull 10 ounces of Silver out of the ground for every ounce of Gold.

So....at the least..Silver should trade at 1/10th the price of Gold. (that would be around $150 buck right now rather than $35)

Nevermind the FACT that we CONSUME FAR MORE SILVER Than we can mine every year and there is thus LESS SILVER ABOVE GROUND THAN GOLD
silver will always out perform gold in a bull metal market.
Silver is about to explode.

How about the fact there is 2 Billion Ounces of Gold worldwide compared to 1 Billion Ounces of Silver?

Even better than that is the Illegal 50% shorting of all Silver mined by JP Morgan and other banks that the CFTC Chairman will soon be ending.

This is 3 to 4 times more than the Hunts Brothers held long positions in the 70's that drove Silver to $80 an ounce.

The Silver Crash - caused by manipulation not The Market

Silver has declined significantly this week in response to equity requirement hikes in commodities margin accounts. This has triggered a massive margin call wave resulting in heavy liquidations. The tightening of trading credit will effectively quell inflation, even in the face of a rising debt limit and possible default on US bonds, and may revitalize the economy.They just raised the margin on silver...that tell me that they are afraid of silver. It tells me that silver is good, but physical. Asia do not buy the paper fraud they are accumulating physical, Westerners' do the same thing!!!!!! The CME was told by the Us Government to do what they did to break the back of the precious metals market , now you have to put up five times as much money as you did 9 days ago and that's not true for the short-side of the market , those shorting have to put two times ...what happened is unprecedented and illegal..

Separating speculation from supply and demand, with Daniel Fisher, MBF Trading. . Daniel Fisher : this is so fast and so ridiculous, it's -- i can't even fathom these markets because when you watch silver move during the day, even if you're on the right side of the trade, the speed at which it's going on, it's unfathomable. i mean, the truth is these moves down, the corrections are all so overexaggerated by all the high frequency trading that ifru just slowed down we wouldn't see oil down 10 bucks today, wouldn't see brent trading down, you know, down below. Daniel, it's joe. when you talk about high frequently trading in the commodities space, people know about high frequency trading and stocks. how does it work in the futures mark? i mean, it's a similar deal. you have computers that are running each other in essentially. bidding and offering at the same time and they know when the large orders are coming so when you see a big sale in oil coming in, 100 lots, computers know they are coming and they essentially front run the order, and they front run each other and just run each other in. it's too fast and it's just unsustainable for the markets to even control.

The manipulation in the silver market right know this is crazy. The price dropped almost 4 dollars in under 7 hours I have been watching the price since I got home from work about 3. The price went from 44. 21 to 40.60 in under 7 hours, the made 4 heavy drops hitting the 40.60 mark. We had 44.21 down to 42.52 from there down to 41.38 another big drop to 40.76 bottoming out at 40.60. Now it bounced around a little in between but sank fast. After it hit 40.76 it struggled back up to 41.83 before it bottomed at the 40.60 mark an hour and a half later I HAVE TANGIBLE PYHSICAL SILVER. Just look outside the scenarios that have been laid out by the major news outlets and paper shoppers and see for yourself what is really going on with silver. Go on the major online dealers websites and which ones you go to I don't not care you will see the truth about silver it is extremely hard to obtain physical right now. The U.S. mint is not currently making silver eagles, the major dealers and local dealers all have delays on eagles and a lot of other bars and rounds have a wait or in a sense backorder on eagles and one oz.

Bob Chapman the FED is owned by private banks some of them are foreign , and the government is controlled by the banks that own the FED , they want you to leave the physical market and go to the traditional paper market and SLV , GLD ....



Bob Chapman : I happy that our government is knocking the price of silver down ...they ( the brokers ) are discouraging investments other than in SLV and GLD and of course in commodities and that's because it's leveraged and they make more commissions , and they don't care whether SLV and GLD go bankrupt or not . The government is controlled by the owners of the FED , they want to get people back to the traditional paper market ....last week silver margins were increased by the CME twice by twenty percent today they raised them again by another thirty percent , which is a psychological factor in this market because most of the people in the market are big hitters , they don't buy three of five contracts they buy three hundreds or five hundreds or three thousands or five thousands that's the kind of market this is ....the CME owns the COMEX and so they are the ones who make the rules and these rules come from the treasury department and of course these people in the exchanges very well know that ..it's easy to identify what they are doing if you've been in the brokerage business for 29 years like I was says Bob Chapman of the International Forecaster , the FED is owned by banks Europeans as well as Americans the biggest share holder is JP Morgan Chase followed by City Group and Goldman Sachs and a host of others and some of them are foreigners , the government is controlled by the owners of the FED they control the treasury

Golden Opportunity to buy Physical Silver

The news of the killing of Osama Bin Laden has only temporarily slowed the price of gold. The yellow metal futures expiring in June ended today, rising 0.1% to $ 1,557.10 an ounce. 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 CME Group , the company that manages the NYMEX (New York Mercantile Exchange), has decided to increase for the second time in a week the initial deposit required to secure transactions on the futures on silver. 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 ....
