<p>[QUOTE=&quot;InfleXion, post: 1123403, member: 29012&quot;]There have been numerous links on this forum about silver market manipulation by JPM putting a huge number of shorts out there to keep the price low. Saw the YouTube video of it being referenced in Congress along with the head of the CFTC. Cornering things becomes more difficult as huge amounts of new buyers enter the scenario, mainly China, India, and people like us at large muddying the waters a bit. IMO that&#039;s why we&#039;re now seeing the gold/silver ratio return to more historically consistent levels, because the amount of manipulation vs. true market forces is losing leverage due to a number of factors. </p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t really think a silver shortage is an immediate concern. It&#039;s still available online, and coin shops are still in business in my area =) Although as China&#039;s demand increases, where as they used to be an exporter, we may see a shortage at some point as yearly production remains steady. And there are so many reasons silver kicks shell; conductivity and thus use in electronics (non-recoupable), medical use, safety net/inflation hedge, affordability vs. gold, collectibility.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
