My understanding is that if you purchase one silver futures contract on the long side for delivery on a specific date, and notifiy the exchange...
If a company goes into the futures market to purchase silver to keep their plant operating, and on the delivery date they receive cash in place of...
I don't think there is much to it. The nation has hit the debt ceiling before and the Treasury always magically finds additional reserves to...
I think we might see some version of the gold system. It is unlikely that gold will be returned to its historical role as currency, but it is...
You are correct, of course. There are a few folks here who make these overwhelming universal statements and attribute their own mindset to the...
That's a convenient bit of logic -- everyone else is wrong and all data and statistics are wrong except yours. Gold isn't fluctuating in value -...
It looks like a correction to me. But silver is sitting pretty close to trend line, so if there is another large move down, that could signal the...

When you have a quick 30% drop like that, all of the thinly capitalized players, momentum investors, leveraged investors, day traders, [some]...
I don't know about the stable and consistent part, but I agree that PMs are in stronger hands now, and the overall price trend still seems to be...
No, I'm completely disagreeing. If a person "took delivery" [whatever that means] of a debt in cash, it would necessitate another investor buying...
I don't follow gold and platinum as much. The 4 largest gold shorts are about 15M ounces while the 4 largest silver shorts are3 180M ounces....
I don't think it is true that gold has a greater short position -- at least not in percentage of available inventory. I would like someone to...

I'll bet a lot of folks who were heavily invested in tech stocks in the late 90s would disagree with that.
I hope you realize that there isn't supposed to be $1 in circulation for every dollar of debt or for every $1 in other asset values. I hope you...
