Ted Butler on Silver Shortages

Silver was around $ 4.02 an Oz in 2000, now it's nearly $28, now that's investment! I'm buying for the longterm, my silver is for keeps unless there's a massive price explosion. Gold for February delivery was tanking $16.20 to $1,328.20 an ounce at the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. The gold price Tuesday has traded has high as $1,338 and as low as $1,321.90. The spot gold price was holding up better supported by physical buying down only $5.30, according to Kitco's gold index



Ted Butler : ...No one knows for sure. It comes down to how much additional long liquidation the big shorts can engineer. We are still above all the critical moving averages, so there does exist the possibility we could go lower to get the technical funds completely flushed out. For sure, if we do go lower, it will be because JPMorgan and the other COMEX crooks are successful in tricking the technical funds into forced selling and not for any other reason. But there has been significant liquidation already, so it is just as possible it could be done or nearly so. Certainly there is nothing in the real world of silver that would account for further selling.

Silver and Gold Demand Explodes in China.

that is exactly why gold/silver could never be in a bubble. All the Asians would simply buy it up if it ever crashed in price. The dynamics have changed since the 79/80. This time it aint coming back down. We've already seen that physical has more or less diverged from paper in price terms.


Silver and Gold physical bullion products are in high demand. China sold 7 tons of Gold bullion in January, compared to selling 15 tons gold all of last year.

They sold 13 tons of physical silver in January compared to selling 33 tons of silver all of last year. Inflation has the chinese people spooked. The Chinese government is actively encouraging their people to buy physical gold and silver instead of putting their money into real estate.

When the dollar collapses or an economic collapse spreads throught the west, we are going to find that China has all the metal and real wealth and we have a stack of worthless paper.

The chinese are buying physical silver and gold. Are you?
