<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1176845, member: 26302&quot;]True, not in absolute value, but it effectively can. I would say silver at $4 when I bought it was effectively zero based upon how much relative value it had lost in 3 or 4 decades. Stocks can go to absolute zero where commodities cannot, but they effectively can go there. Silver today is more in line with historical value, (high side sure, but not crazy high like 1980). So many people get wrapped up with a number, but remember every single year every commodity we buy should go up because of inflation, but humans don&#039;t think that way, we remember actual numbers. I would say if silver went to $8 it is effectively zero compared to what its purchasing power used to be.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hope that makes sense, but I am not sure if I am explaining it well.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
