<p>[QUOTE="jolumoga, post: 1721709, member: 41780"]I agree, and I will also add that supply and demand are also not the sole or even main determinant of the price of silver in either the short or intermediate term. This is the fallacy made by those attempting to "quantify" a market that is largely driven by psychology. In fact, silver's volatility (in my humble view) points to the difficulty (and perhaps futility) of attempting to arrive at a fair price using mathematical analysis (not to mention that I have recently listened to a report pointing to the cost of production rising exponentially, which implies a fast-moving target). To be clear, I think the further a horizon is broadened, which can mean <i>years</i>, the more accurate a quantitative analysis is. So it has some use, tho with plenty of margin of error. I come with a view that the greatest determinant of silver's price is the value of the dollar, which by no means is an original viewpoint. At some point, and that means longer term, the dollar will be devalued not only against finite commodities but also relative to other major currencies. With this assumption, silver will have a comfortable floor with the potential to break out yet again to new highs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
