A part of me is pleased as I am over the 1000oz club But a part of me is also bummed because I'm under the 10000oz club lol My cost per ounce is around 28$ so anything above that is profit and if it is within $3 of my cost per ounce I'm buying
Also good to see gold closing in on 1800 And Plat. Having a $300 gain a is over the last 60 days

It's only a start. Silver is now under the 50 to 1 ratio with gold. I'm looking forward for tomorrow (FEB 29) new QE in Europe that could reach over a trillion euro.

I'm, as always, hopeful for silver. But this metal is so volatile and so open to manipulation it is tough to decide what to do as a buyer or seller. Where it should be and where it will be seldom co-exist. And one wonders too what kind of a world will we live in if silver successfully breaches $60 per oz.

It's true, silver can give you nightmares if you day trade or have a 6 month time frame, but honestly, if you're looking to sink your money in an investment with at least a 2 year time frame, I feel very comfortable buying silver (or Gold).

For me it is half half. Local stores would only buy my silver coins if the price is low.

When I want a coin or buy silver coins I usually buy it up to 70$ an ounce, over that I found it a little bit crazy to buy over that price to fill up my albums (sometime I go crazy if the coin is very nice). I like it to collect coins but I don't think it worth it in the present time because I expect a very big economic crisis and when it will happen there is going a lot less money available for collectors and prices will go down. But coin collectors are in a very good position to face this crisis because the coins are physical valuable assets that will provide bread on the table. This my opinion and I really hope that I'm wrong.

I am in it for the long term, and watching it go up and down is very interesting to say the least.

Im glad for the overall climbing of silver but like most people on different forums are saying, what is going to happen when silver gets to $50. I would bet to say that 80% of people have said that they will sell at that point so that means silver will tank off quite a bit. It will give another buy in point but I wonder if silver will ever get over that $50 mark and hold. Aslo, when it rises $1.50 in one trading day scares me because I'm wondering if this is going to start a bubble which I dont want. Im in it for long term purposes and If it cant hold above 50 and bubble is created and bursts, it will mean my resaons for silver would have been in vain. I dont hold alot of silver, some 30oz or so, so short term plays really dont work for me. You could sell off half for a profit at 50 and buy again when it goes down or, you see it still goes up to 60 and I buy in again, costing me more, to see it tank at 70. So volitile that trying to figure out what to do is so frusterating. Thats why Im bullish for silver long term. 20-30 years. Lets hope we just dont get a reapeat of a stagnant 20 years we saw up to 5 years ago right now or in the near future holding at $34. just some thoughts. CHEERS!

The situation today is a whole lot different than in 1980 when silver reached 50$. Our government has so much debts today that any increase in the interest rate would be catastrophic. Back in 1980 the interest rate was in the 2 digits so it could drain the money available.
Today silver is really cheap and is a great deal and you will increase your wealth until it reached around a ratio of 15 to 1 with gold. After it protects your assets. Anyway I could talk a lot about silver but I don't think that is the proper forum for that. So for me gold and silver is real money has it had been for the past 2 500 years or so.

Yes Coingirl it's a fire sale and I expect the price of silver going back on track in the very short time. The price fell this with the opening of the COMEX where they trade the paper silver which is really different than the physical market where you pay a premium over the spot price. Expect another round of Quantitive Easing pretty soon.
