I cannot possibly stress this enough: please do not merely focus on price direction. Do not do it. That's the quick-and-easy, sure-fire, fastest, one-way ticket to the funny farm!
Ok? Price is a short term factor that the banks have nearly complete control over, and it's their main mechanism for managing your emotions, your thoughts, and most importantly, your behavior. Remember when the banks manage prices, they're not trying to manage price so much as they're trying to manage you.
Silver and gold don't mine themselves. Silver and gold don't buy themselves. They don't place themselves neatly into random homes or storage facilities. Silver and gold don't actively do anything.
When banks hammer these prices over long periods of time, it is with the intended effect of conditioning your behavior. Silver isn't the real target, you are.
