<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tom Maringer, post: 171892, member: 7033&quot;]<b>Waiting for $9 silver again</b></p><p><br /></p><p>I make coins, so I use a lot of silver, both in the form of sheet for punching blanks and as coin and scrap for melting and rolling and also for overstriking. I have not bought since silver went over $10... promising myself that I would buy again when it got back into the nine dollar range again.&nbsp; I have been waiting... and waiting... and wondering now if I will have to just buck up and buy after all. </p><p><br /></p><p>But in case nobody noticed, copper has risen by a much higher percentage than silver. It has gone from under a dollar two years ago to near four dollars fairly recently.... and still hovering about $3.50&nbsp; per pound. It&#039;s becoming precious enough to encourage theft, and ALMOST to the point where we could start giving the price per troy ounce! I personally stake out a much more aggressive position in copper than in silver. </p><p><br /></p><p>Other metals are worth looking at... particularly alloy additives, specialty metals, and aerospace exotics, things like titanium, chromium, vanadium, molybdenum, tantalum, niobium, zirconium, indium, tungsten, and hafnium. These metals do not follow market trends as clearly as do the standards, and so they can provide investment opportunities for the person willing to delve into the intricacies of their supply and demand situations.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
