<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 966385, member: 26302&quot;]I agree that the financial markets are not true barometers of physical pricing. They are not liquid enough, and too much leverage. I would prefer changes to the rules of the market, and I believe the Fed is looking into it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Silver is a weird animal versus gold, not as much international support for bullion, no demand from central banks for reserves, but much greater industrial demand and lower percentages of inventories. I would argue gold is the weird animal and silver is actually more normal, more akin to other industrial metals like copper and nickel.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course I do not know what will happen with an economic recovery, but I would advance one thought. Do not think in terms of only the US economy, or just the US and Europe. PM&#039;s are truly international, so demand and production, in conjunction with worldwide reserves, need to be look at and considered. I would think silver would increase with a healthier economy like copper and nickel, while gold could wilt if people feel better that the sky isn&#039;t falling and do not feel the urge to buy more for uncertainty and central banks stop purchasing more for reserves.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
