I was in Dollar Tree and saw a new product. A skin cream containing a couple silver compounds.

Granted the active one is only 65 ppm, (no amount listed on the other), but that means for every million 1.5 oz tubes of this goop sold, another 100 oz bar can kiss it goodbye.

Unless you can figger out how to recycle 100 ounces of silver out of 47 tons of used skin cream.

Hey, if silver becomes the next "must have" ingredient in cosmetics it's fine with me. Another source of demand equals new pressure on the paper traders and short sellers.

Yeah, this looks like one of those "you can do it but not at a profit" kind of deals.
