I would like to get your insight ..regarding the certainty that there will be inflation... if the bulk of the institutional money and people savings, 401 K accounts etc etc ,is held in assets such as the stock market and real estate..bonds, treasuries etc.....then after a crash in stock...

If you can explain in some more detail what you mean here..if you mean they will go to a gold standard then they effectively have to create a currency ( fiat ) that can be easily converted to gold at a defined value. This notion that suddenly gold is going to be the answer to all ills that we...

Senor sanchez...thank you...It just adds to the list the number of issues that have to be negotiated through.. with out doubt that number of maturities coming due is high ... initially I think a shortening of the book will occur before things really bite.. Japan has been riding this train for...

Thanks for the article its good to get a cross section of views. one quote the article started with is "Silver is now quite undervalued compared to prevailing gold prices, its primary driver. Thus it has great potential to rally mightily in the coming months to regain much lost ground...

thanks Will... personally I dont think things will get that bad even with Euro contagion and money printing in the US.....but when silver hit its high of $50 that is still a" buyable price" for a lot of people .yes they could still buy at higher prices but their oz purchase will be smaller...

I posted this to a thread that maybe was not the right one so I thought I would throw it out there again. Caveat I don't have the answer .. but a lot of the reason given to silver being well supported and possibly in short supply is the fact of industrial demand...if there is any serious...

I dont have the answer ..but a lot of the reason given to silver being well supported and possibly in short supply is the fact of industrial demand...if there is any serious downturn many of the industries that go to make up this industrial demand will also have a down turn and not need to buy...

+1 but for us....it was the relief valve on the HWS that was staying open all the time .....hot water down the drain and it was quiet so you did not hear it..boy what a shock when the bill came in..best everyone go give a it a check every so often..

I agree with your sentiment ..I just have some concerns about your execution...the trouble with a serious financial event is that ALL shares are marked down pretty well no matter what intrinsic value they may have for the future... so if we agree that a mining company may have hard assets in...

Julie , I think that prudent capital adequacy ratios left the building a long time ago. This is particularly evident in the US where they just keep changing the requirements ( lower standards) as the banks become more loaded with toxic debt. it would be interesting to see the Ozzie banks stress...

thanks for the background..although reading the thread the bars were disfigured from wear and tear rather than some process of oxidation or ?? I am not sure where the flaky aspect occurs..if at all over the years..

???? do the PM bars or for that matter any highly polished bar start to flake ...can you give more detail as to what happens and why.....do you need to keep bars in air tight bags??

why do you think that was?? its interesting to see different premiums from a beginners point of view. when silver was running up were the pamp bars in short supply so the premium blew out a little or ..do people feel more secure in a well known brand ?? just hard to get my head around.

Hi all, I am new to SS and have started my collection by buying the Gual 1kg bars and coins....I like them .....however I have seen one well known member trying to sell the Gual 1kg bars and they seem to have been a slow mover compared to most items on here even considering his fine pricing...

having a high dollar does keep inflation and the cost / wage pressures at bay..imagine what you would be paying for petrol if the dollar was @.75 cents..and then imagine the ripple effect it would have on all costs. we run a balance of payments deficit Our banks lend way more than they raise...
