<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 990174, member: 26302&quot;]I just want to throw a couple points out. You are right about silver&#039;s properties, so why isn&#039;t it used in wiring? Too expensive. Pots and pans? Too expensive. Heck even copper is on the verge of being too expensive for wiring, and it already is for pots and pans. Your point is valid that silver is an exceptional metal in many regards, its just that almost any metal is replaceable in industrial applications. So if silver DID go to $30 long term then the demand would decline more swiftly. This is the danger of relying on industrial applications for excessive price appreciation. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As for speculative demand, I do not consider that a stable long term consumption, in fact I consider it an overhang to potential price increases since this can easily return to the marketplace.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just pointing those out for consideration. Not to say they mean silver will not hit the prices you think. Personally I love silver and platinum, always have. Gold to me looks dirty.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
