Silver Prices 10 Years From Now.

One thing is certain - the U.S. dollar/FRN will be worth less or on its deathbed. Silver is the working stiff's economic insurance policy in such situations. Placing a future "dollar" value on any item might not mean much if it will take $300 to buy a Big Mac.

Thanks, Jack. lol

I like to look at the fundamentals of any stock or fund I buy. Buying PMs isn't a lot different in this regard. The figures for silver production vs. consumption look really good for the longer term. Things get even better when one considers the loss in buying power of the US dollar and other fiat currencies.



For the most part, control is an illusion. No, we do not have control of the PM market but we can gain a bit of that by holding the physical metal vs. the paper PMs out there. There will come a day when physical delivery is demanded by large PM holders (usually the only ones who can demand physical delivery from the ETFs) and cannot be met by the amount of metal they have on hand. It is quite possible that their control and manipulation games will end there and then with a spectacular blow-up of their company stock.

As to their "exit strategy", that could back-fire on them as well... particularly the huge short positions that are held in silver by the likes of JPM and HSBC. I don't expect them to give up their efforts in this area but I DO expect them to lose.
