Thanks mate. I thought about covering the ratio and when to overweight into silver after reading this on https://www.silverstackers.com/forums/index.php?threads/gsr.91307/page-2#post-1087923
If past trends are still valid, Silver needs a recession. If you look a the chart, since the 1960s, silver bull market starts after a recession (greyed vertical bar) almost without fail. Take note of the 2000-2001 recession after which Silver started the huge bullrun beating gold and all other asset classes with it's easily 6 or more folds appreciation over a 10 year period. If silver were to go up 6 folds today, we should be looking at $80 silver. But there's also a chance that silver will correct to a lower low during a recession as it has done in 2008 before the final shoot up. https://www.macrotrends.net/1470/historical-silver-prices-100-year-chart
Still in the early stages. Wait till there is a real crisis, when gold is $2500 an oz, not many people can afford, they will buy silver instead. Silver is affordable even if it costs $100 an oz. The pandora stores in town having good business, gold is too expensive so husbands are buying silver jewellery for anniversaries. The fashion trend is towards silver jewellery. Gold Jewellery might be too expensive and risky to wear in public in the future.
