<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Phil Ham, post: 1928121, member: 5787&quot;]Supply and demand are the driving forces in the gold and silver market.&nbsp; Mexico, China, and Peru produce a lot of the world&#039;s silver.&nbsp; When the demand is on rise, the price rises until the mines in these low cost countries (and other countries) meet the demand by extracting silver from less profitable mines.&nbsp; The demand gets quenched and the price drops.&nbsp; The lower price of silver lessons the demand from the speculators leading to the closing of the less profitable mines. The prices continue to drop until it gets to the point where it seems like a good investment again.&nbsp; Sometimes, it seems to bottom out for awhile (decades even) until the cycle gets kicked started again.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
