<p>[QUOTE="ConfederateHalf, post: 26645648, member: 27946"]We do seem to be in a rather unprecented bull market when it comes to the fundamentals that are driving the current silver squeeze globally. A whole variety of factors are in play - but mainly the industrial demand has zoomed up due to the rapid expansion of A.I. data center projects, solar panel projects, new silver batteries that may end up being used to power cars and lots of other things, etc. It's all driving demand way up for physical silver and helping to disconnect the physical price from the phony-baloney paper silver price. China is also helping by restricting the exports of silver from there. Silver is becoming a very strategic metal for military and industrial use and the United States and many other major countries are all on the same page now. I think we will start seeing governments starting to build strategic silver reserves again. It also helps that governments everywhere are deep in debt and are rapidly destroying the value of all fiat currencies. It's a perfect storm - unlike anything seen before - and the fundamentals are unlikely to change through all of 2026 in my opinion. So, yeah, I'm bullish on silver and I'm still buying strongly each week and adding to my stack. But I'm not speculating for a flip. I'm trying to get the hell out of the paper DOLLAR so I can protect my assets from the severe inflationary spiral that I'm convinced is on it's way. With this country at $38 Trillion dollar of debt and running up another trillion every 4 months something has to give soon. Especially if the the BRICS manage to derail the USD as the world's preferred reserve currency. Biden really screwed up when he sanctioned the Russians by going freezing them out of the international settlements system for trade. Once that happened the whole world decided that Uncle Sam cannot be trusted anymore and everyone has been rushing for the exits to dump US Treasuries and move towards hard assets. Central banks everywhere are loading up on gold and investment gurus who spent decades ridiculing precious metals as "barbarous relics" and "shiny rocks" all have egg on their faces now and are hastening to tell their clients to put at least 20% of their portfolios into PM's - mainly gold. So I am not terribly concerned that we will see any major collapse in gold and silver prices. Everyone is nervous because of 1980 and 2011 - but those were NOTHING like this bull market. They were pure speculative bulls and did not have the fundamentals driving them like this one does. We will all be fine. KEEP CALM, AND STACK ON.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
