I'm interested in peoples views on stacking (and I don't mean hobby stacking, I mean proper hardcore investing/speculation) IF the following would SOMEHOW be true and known to all..

1. Hyperinflation of any major currency will not happen in the next 100 years.

2. Silver is not manipulated and the supply will continue to be prevalent for the next 100 years.

3. The stockmarket will trend upwards in real terms over the next 50 years.


If those three things were (somehow) KNOWN to be true... would you still stack?

If so - why?

Just interested.

(note I did not make any notes regarding the price of silver itself, only those three points are known - everything else not)
 
yeah,sure,especially with the upwards only trend..would make it easy(er) to sell,trade whatever.... ;)
 
There is another aspect that attracts investors. Anonymity. That alone is reason enough for me to have at least some investment in Silver or Gold.
 
Probably not. I'd ride the wave on a well diversified portfolio...with virtually no PM's.. I'd see that as a waste of capital.
 
Is this a world where George Soros is reported as dead, but strangely makes a guest appearance as The Hood on The Thunderbirds marionette reunion show - Puppets of Doom.
 
Sure. CB's balance sheets looking like crap, if not hyperinflation then why not a default here or there, or massive Cyprus like event? Plenty of options to choose from.
 
I would probably hold a little bit, but a lot less % wise than what I am in now.
Reasoning behing holding a bit would be ability to carry wealth, ease of transfer to others, out of the system form of wealth.

The stock market has recently moved upwards both here and in the US and it is still currently trending upwards.

However the real reason behind the bull movement is the massive injection of liquidity by the central banks buying up using freshly printed money (QE) to send the price upwards, Like all ponzi schemes something has to give eventually and this keeps cynical silver bugs like me on the sidelines confident about my silver obsession :)

Charlie Atkins from Bell Potter securities put it succinctly regarding the end game regarding the various government central bank's money being pumped into the stockmarkets.

"The biggest risk though is [central banks] prematurely believe their own bullshit that they've created asset price inflation and it's all going better and they start to pull out too quickly, and everyone goes, 'Hang on, it was just you guys. The reason we're here in the stockmarket is you. Don't start believing we've created macroeconomic growth'. That's a big issue for investors, absolutely! It's sort of a mirage because interest rates are zero."

For me silver is like insurance against all those things you listed going bad. I would not insure my car if I knew I was not going to have an accident.

I would not have silver if I knew everything was going to be ok.
 
there would be people wanting to hide from taxes and pms are pretty invisble. So even though the stocks might be growing the government spending could be growing faster and property taxes rates etc as well as other taxes relating to other assets can be increased or new ones easily introduced while your gold/silver would be pretty much invisble.

if all those 1,2,3 are with probability of 1, meaning they are certain events
then if stockmarket uptrend will cover inflation rate and gain some %% in any and each given year during the next 50 years,
then I'll sell all my silver and buy stockmarket for the next 50 years.

forgot to mention "why?"
because if my return covers inflation and makes some + it is enough for me not to get bothered and keep my purchasing power through ages
 
So long as there are financial institutions who think they are above the law involved in money laundering, fraud, tax evasion, insider trading(should I go on?) and spineless governments who wont gaol these cunts.... yes
