Slightly coin related as the time seems right for a substantial increase in the PM's.
What say you?

I doubt if either will substantially take off until paper gold and silver via the COMEX and other exchanges goes to $zero$. Metals appear to be chained to paper. But, what do I know? :)

IMO we're just starting a slow, but accelerating, long term increase in PM prices.

I would like to think it is about to go up......but I think I can accurately predict the price as well as any of you can.....or any other expert. Studying charts, following trends, etc none of it really means a whole lot. I have seen the "experts" fail with their predictions numerous times. It will do what it will do. Stick with fundamentals, follow your gut, and never spend more than you could stand to possibly lose if it crashes. We'd all love to see it spike, but nobody truly knows what it will do. All I know is I love seeing a pile of shiny stuff!

OP: What makes you say that, specifically? I think a lot of people are disheartened with silver and don't want to relive 2013 again.
Everyone who has posted so far is Canadian. But I say that you guys are looking at the price in Canadian dollars, which is crazy-low compared to last year. It's at about 90 cents when it used to trade at par not very long ago. Accelerating price or decelerating currency? Which is weird because the Canadian dollar (or at least the banking system) has been touted as being more stable than the US counterpart, so there's an angle for you there. I think the only people that need to care is people who buy "junk" silver coins.

All I know is that I've been casually looking for better 1944 & 1946 50 cents on ebay for the past couple weeks, and every TPG-graded MS+ coin is BIN above trend plus shipping. I don't know if it's related to this topic, bad timing on my part, buzz from the new varieties section in Charlton, or what.

at least one miner producing 600k+ ounces per year has all in cost per ounce of ~$1200.
if they are a good respresentation of the miners then the gold price should go up in the long term. gold have been climbing recently, but I still believe short term rises to $1400+ are less likely (not all the data are in yet though)

Lots of resistance ahead, so hard to tell. Ironically, bitcoin crashed substantially the last couple of days as gold moved up.... Could there be bitcoin-for-gold traders out there?

First of all, the conditions why Gold went up from the years of 2000 to 2011 haven't changed. In dfact, they've gotten worse (favourable for gold). Secondly, we've had a downtime in gold for three years now and I just think it's time for the bull market to continue. Thirdly, Gold and silver sentiment is at an all time low. What do the financial gurus say when a stock or a commodity is at an all time sentiment low? It's not difficult to guess.

 I think we need more threads to beat this already dead horse to death.
