<p>[QUOTE=&quot;goldmark, post: 1534177, member: 38168&quot;]Very good post. I&#039;m a strong believer in the raising price of silver myself, although over a very long timeframe (20 years and more). The current strong prices have yet to prove to be sustained in the mid term (5 years and more), depending on the central bank driven market and ongoing financial repression this can surely go on for many years and possession of pm is a good insurance in case things turn really ugly. Whenever sudden price spikes are observed waiting some time to make further decisions is a rational choice. If someone wants exposure to the potentials of higher industrial demand and insurance against false policy, silver and platinum are a much better choice than aluminum and copper, density of value and liquidity is much higher compared to the base metals.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>With raising demands in emission standards (like Euro-6-Norm) the further use of platinum in catalytic converters for diesel type engines is pretty much posed to grow, also strong dependence on a single supplier nation with a market share of 76-80% (hope I&#039;m not wrong here) and known uncertainties to sustain stable mining operations is a huge plus in my book. I&#039;m quite bullish on the long term trend of platinum, even if it may hurt short term. </p><p><br /></p><p>What is also to be observed is the sudden disappearance of market available supplies with sudden strong price breakdowns (at least with German dealers/raffineries) -is it the same on the American market?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
