[QUOTE="Rono, post: 1371834, member: 6492"]Howdy, The problem is that everyone continually tries to simplfy the demand for both silver and gold and this myopia is not good if you want to be a successfull investor. Silver and gold both have very distrinctly different demand functions. However, they also have enormous overlap and they are both multifaceted. I've been following the gold/silver ratio for years, but it is only one of many factors that has caused me to slightly overweight silver relative to gold in my holdings. As for the g/s ratio being worthless - don't be so dogmative as to confuse what is true and what people believe to be true. This is huge folks. If everyone believes a lie to be true AND ACTS ACCORDINGLY - it might as well be true. Good God, look at the campaign ads and spin we witness daily from all media sources. And here's the real issue with regard to silver demand and its relation to gold. If sufficient numbers of people around the world see them as related, that the gold/silver ratio is important and silver is a poor man's substitute for gold. Well, than by golly, by gum, it will have some impact on the market. peace, rono[/QUOTE]
