Eric Sprott : Silver is The Investment of this decade

Silver is very difficult sourcing says Eric Sprott while explaining why backwardation is Bullish , the Chinese have become net importer of silver US Mint sells more silver bullion than it sells in gold bullion Eric Sprott believes that it is the man in the street who is driving the demand for silver for example the US mint this year has sold as many dollars in silver coins as it has sold in silver coins but the prices are different by 38 to 1 which really means that the common guy is buying Silver the reason silver going up is because of savers Eric says people want to rather own a hard asset than a paper asset there is also the industrial demand and the fear factor related to QE1 , QE2 and a possible QE3 it is not just about the weakness of the dollar , a lot of people are losing confidence in the Euro the Yen and of course the dollar We are still far away from a bubble Eric explains the precious metal ownership is still less than 1 percent so there is no mania going on as of yet , Eric dos not believe that interest rates have anything to do with the silver rally so even if the FED raises its rates it won't affect the rally what's driving it is the lack of faith in the currency , Sprott believes that Silver will dramatically outperform Gold over the next 5 years he calls the next decade the Silver's decade while the last decade was Gold's decade

Silver $40.75 , Gold $1475 , and a Possible Government Shutdown

Silver $40.75 , Gold $1475 , and a Possible Government Shutdown



Silver is a form of exchange, we're seeing money managers looking at silver really as a form of money. it's more attractive at $40 an ounce than gold. if we move to something on the lines of a barter economy, using silver coins and using silver at the $40 an ounce mark is a lot cheaper than buying gold.more hoarding in the silver story is driven primarily by the overall safe haven attributes of precious metals , we have seen more hoarding in silver recently than gold in fact the money that's accumulating is outstripping the annual production and more people are competing to acquire the bullion and kind of ignoring the fact that 40% of the production goes to industrial uses , since the '80s we've seen an average gold to silver ratio of about 63 times. that's fallen below 40 recently.Silver is still a smoking deal even at 440 as says Robert Kiyodaki , Silver is real money , how long will people be conned in believing that paper money is something that has any value in it
Silver Shortage
GOLD is the money of the KINGS, SILVER is the money of the GENTLEMEN, BARTER is the money of the PEASANTS, but DEBT is the money of the SLAVES!!!
