<p>[QUOTE="InfleXion, post: 1159051, member: 29012"]I think it's just because people have less money, and you can get more silver without spending a chunk of change. Also the shorting of silver by JPM inclines me to believe it has been artificially suppressed, and that this is more of a correction than a discrepancy. Just speculation when it comes down to it though. So the Fed is what got me into PM's, but I personally chose silver because of the gold/silver ratio at the time around 70:1 and also for ease of bartering vs. gold where small denominations aren't very practical.. so many factors. I didn't really consider anything else mainly due to these 2 being the primary objects of their kind throughout human lore. Hope that clears things up <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>By today's standards I am a bit more inclined to want gold than before (diversification is best I know), but the current g/s ratio trend is in silver's favor for the time being.
