[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1625831, member: 26302"]First, please name the central banks that have the "massive short positions in silver". They MAY have shorts for gold, but that is simply trying to make some money from their gold reserves. Its a smart thing to do if you have an asset that just has to sit there idle. Second, um, yeah, but they won't. If every American did this, or did that, or even the third thing markets for EVERYTHING could change dramatically. What if every American woke up tomorrow wanting a pop tart? Pop tart prices would EXPLODE!!!!! Anytime any has to resort to such nonsensical argument it worries me that you don't have any real arguments to support your position. As for silver, its the nature of the graphs and disagreements how to read them. You read silver used for creating bullion to sell to investors as a "usage", I view it as "inventory" that can come back onto the market any time. If evaluating the overall demand for cars do you ONLY compare this demand to new car production, or do you account for the numbers of used cars available for purchase as well? Btw JJK, nothing personal just disputing points with you in the name of discussing these issues here. Chris[/QUOTE]
