Whenever the public gets in a frenzy about silver or gold, one way or the other, look for it to turn the other way. The problem is of course are you part of the public? My two bits, worth a wooden quarter, is that silver will be below $10 before the year is out...so you can now bet it will be over $20 before the year is out. LOL
Or if that super-volcano underneath Yellowstone Park erupts, a bucket full of gold coins wouldn't buy a book of matches.
Gold/silver dropping vs $ isn't anything that keep me up at night. If anything the strong dollar is as much to blame as anything. And yes, I'm expecting the dollar to go supernova... That'll eventually result in new bottom lows for PM but only for a short while. On the international stage I'd recommend keeping any eye on Germany, Turkey and Saudi Arabia. Greece is just a side show as well as Ukraine. The only support the U.S. is experiencing around the globe is from politicians. The people is getting more and more disillusioned and any previous support is waning fast. Media will only be able to prop things up for so long.
