<p>[QUOTE=&quot;yakpoo, post: 6392364, member: 18157&quot;]My experience has been that rapid increases in Silver have been generally fueled by speculation. As prices rise, less productive mines are brought back online as people begin selling their physical silver stacks. If that&#039;s not enough to pop the bubble, Regulators step in and raise margin requirements. It happens every time.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://seekingalpha.com/article/4373933-warning-misleading-silver-supply-and-demand-data" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://seekingalpha.com/article/4373933-warning-misleading-silver-supply-and-demand-data" rel="nofollow">https://seekingalpha.com/article/4373933-warning-misleading-silver-supply-and-demand-data</a></p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;My message is not that the Silver Institute&#039;s reports are useless; they contain all sorts of valuable data. I&#039;m just skeptical of any conclusion derived from a silver market balance-surplus or deficit. To me, it makes more sense to focus on variables that also drive the price of gold - such as inflation, risk, and interest rates - to get a feel for silver sentiment.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
