    Now that its has touched 100, is anyone here thinking of exchanging their gold for silver?

    Tokyo’s 114 to 1 ratio has got me intrigued. I will wait until then.

    Nope....not when there are cashed up buyers out there wanting 100kg+ of silver bullion. If Aurora et luna has a few buyers at this level, there has to be others.

    I actually have buyers for 200+ kgs, however they are looking to buy closer to $800 a kilo.
    Haven't a hope of picking up silver at $800 at present! :D

    Might have to wait for spot to go down if they want at that price

    Nope!
    The higher the price the greater the gold jewellery demand.
    Silver is cheap because of poor demand.
    Gold is always popular and in demand.

    What a load of bollocks.
    It is well known that gold is the first thing to be sold off to fund margin calls.
    Zerobrains spinning the story to suit their narrative... again.... and again...... and again.
    And JG eating it all up. :p

    This is what has been missing in the latest drop in the markets. The margin calls selling stampede. I have been waiting patiently. Now this eventuality could push the ratio well over 100.

    Yes indeed. Currently strange times makes it extremely difficult to see through the fog.

    I'm putting my resources close by and throwing Tarot cards for guidance - since at least I know the bias comes from me alone! lol

    All signs are pointing toward a confluence of events and possibilities that do not bode well in any sphere of activity.

    Time to batten the hatches and head to safe harbour I'm afraid.

    Has anyone noticed recently that silver is following the price of Platinum and palladium?

    Pm appears to be holding very well in spite of the 2000 point drop. Can we assume that the weak hands have all sold out?

    Futures margin gamblers will still be liquidating their Precious Metals for quite a while & licking their wounds.
    Don't expect the P.M.'s to go up too much, too soon.

    JOHNLGALT.....we have not seen the baby being thrown out with the bath water just yet. Do not forget that the Repo rate hit 10% last year. There is a zombie bank out there (Deutsche probably) that will not survive the start of this potential deflationary depression. Then we will see margin call hell.

    With falling oil, falling gas, falling base metals, falling palladium, who will be the biggest loser?

    This is true but gold doesn't last long. You need "productivity". Oil and gas will be redundant in 30 years, whether it runs out or gets replaced by fuel cell or battery or nuclear fusion, whichever comes first. What's next? Planting potatoes and wheat?

    I happen to be in the potato space (snack foods etc) and it seems to be pretty inelastic. In fact, every factory getting built is at capacity within a year. Can’t grow enough of the damned things
