Lots of Physical Buying while Paper Sells Off.....
"What we want to be clear about is this: while the paper selling in gold and silver has been intense, so too has the physical buying. Lisa Sprott of Sprott Money announced Friday: "We have completely run out of physical silver, so we are temporarily out of stock." At KDPM, all of our premiums on silver coins were raised Friday because the market is so tight (in short supply). We have access to silver, but demand is once again overwhelming supply in the short-term. We expect premiums to go up again on silver and gold due to intense buying and lower supplies."
Everything I see online is that it is a buying frenzy. Even some of the analysts on CNBC that have poo-pooed PM's for months are indicating that it is a good time to buy because Europe is warming up the printing presses. Some are even calling for $2000 gold in the near term. Crazy times for sure.
Trading IOUs and agreements back and forth causes short-term prices, but over the long haul, there is a demand (or lack of) for the PM. They're either needed, or not.
