    In this video I do a full breakdown and explanation of what is driving the rising silver to gold ratio today. In addition to that I show you all what realistic level I expect the ratio to pullback to at which point I would consider trading my silver for gold. This video also includes my 2024 price targets for gold & silver with its implications on the gold to silver ratio.
    Be sure to watch to the very end because it is full of useful information.

    In 1980, silver was trading at $30/oz. That’s about $100/oz in today’s dollars. Paper silver has totally distorted the real price of gold and silver. Eventually, this will be rectified.

      @Dennis0824 5 месяцев назад +5

      Totally agree. We know that the silver market is one of the most manipulated markets in the world. Also, silver has more industrial applications than gold. As the price of gold increases, it will become less affordable for the average investor, in effect increasing the demand for silver.

      @@sankalp3513 Not really. There is more of an opportunity cost buying gold.
      At some point in the future we will be able to create gold and silver though nuclear fusion or by mining asteroids or the earths core. Producing gold and silver this way will cost close to the same per kg then for each of them. It for sure won't be 85 times as expensive to procur gold this way.
      Also silver has arguably the more important industrial characteristics, beeing the best conductor in existence.
      I'm rather secure in my oppinion, that my dirtcheap silver will be a much safer investment in this scenario. Procuring 1kg of material in the new way is much more likely to cost less than 70.000$ than it is to cost less than 800$. Maybe the new method will not even be lucrative for silver, as it's still so much cheaper than gold.
      I see a good chance that silver will at one point be at a 1-5 ratio again in around 30-40 years and I am not in a rush. If it stays at a 1-85 ratio I lost nothing. How likely is it really for the ratio to become considerably worse than now? I don't really see that scenario at all.

Silver is already in a 5 yr deficit. IMO. During hyperinflation 10:1. After reset 4:1. Eventually going 1:1 as technology ramps up. When mining picks up the end may be 3:1. Thanks bald guy. ✝️

    I agree with you on the gold side. When the economy is faltering, like it is now, gold will go up since central banks will be buying gold rather than dollars. Silver just hangs on, going up slowly with inflation. When the economy is good, the demand for silver will increase due to increased industrial demand, and so will the price. I expect gold to beat silver in 2024 but in 2025 or 2026 I expect silver to beat gold. Always great to hear your opinion.

    I think silver would start to bring the ratio down if the metals become monetary again. Sure, the banks will still hold to gold, but pre 1971 they did that, but also their silver out of necessity. Therefore, I maintain that the need for siler will rise exponentially because of the demand regardless of the commercial or industrial demand. I will wait to convert when it gets to 16/1.

    • @edb3877
      @edb3877 5 месяцев назад +2

      16:1 seems unreasonable to me but I would be trading silver for gold starting at a GSR of 40:1. I would do that in increments of 10% of my tradable stack and follow the GSR as it
      drops lower. If it stops dropping, I stop trading and would be happy with what I had at that time. As recently as 13 years ago, we did have a GSR of just under 32:1. Other than that,
      it's been quite a while since it was under 20:1, let alone 15:1 or 16:1. Not saying that it won't or can't happen, just that it seems very unlikely to me.
      One thing not mentioned in this discussion is that anyone holding silver that they bought at a much lower price than today probably does not care as much about the loss of premium
      on the trade. Yes, I know that most dealers do not trade. They would see it as them buying your silver and you buying their gold with the proceeds. This simplifies their bookkeeping
      and tax issues. Those who inherited some silver from their parents or grand parents likely would be in a similar situation, IMO.

      Using stats from the past, especially the current past (last 50 years) is what is questionable to me in the long term. Always in the past, fiat has entirely collapsed, (4200 times according to Lynette Zang). Because of this, after the dollar collapses, I expect the ratio to go to long historical past levels. I only stack collectable, graded items now, the rare, because we lived in the West and all our other stack we got for a dollar for dollar. @@edb3877

If the future ratio tightens, I plan to sell or trade silver for gold. My plan is, at 60/1, move 20% of silver for gold. I will continue to move 20% of silver at 50/1, 40/1, and even at 30/1. That's my plan. I will continue to stack both silver and gold at these price point. Thank you for sharing with the community

    We may never see a 40 to 1 ratio.

That's why they made gold a tier one asset. The big banks want gold and they are not going to give it up on the cheap.

    @JoeStacks419 5 месяцев назад +4

    100% with you on this. A factor GSR traders are counting on is silver premiums during a demand squeeze. Price targets/predictions focus on spot, but the percentage of premium increase is typically higher with silver than gold, thus eating away at the cost of a silver to gold trade. There's always a spread, but dealers pay premiums when demand outpaces spot. But as noted, stacking at a 1 to 40 ratio from the beginning is wise and eliminates cycle strategies and added involvement in what should be a simple insurance plan.

    • @TheQuickSilver101

      In 1980 a good number of dealers were buying silver at 70% or less of spot. When silver spiked to nearly $50 in 2011 it lost 25% of its value in less than a week and dealers were paying back of spot for it then too (certainly my dealers were). People aren't looking at the entire picture of what happened during those spikes when they talk about the GSR

    What would happen if someone like the US or China decided to go back to a gold standard to wipe out their debt? That would allow them to be back on level ground and wipe out their debt which will soon be unserviceable due to rising interest rates. Sure that would require a gold price near $55k per oz. They have done dumber things in the past, so a gold standard would bring a country back, not saying they will do this. Also not even sure if we in the US still have the gold, but we do know that countries like China and India do have it. Just an interesting question.

I get it, I buy silver because it feels good to get a whole tube of Maples or Eagles for ~$700 when one of each in gold is over $2,000. But Bald Guy makes sense...instead of buying silver and trying to "trade up" into gold to your advantage, just go straight to gold. Either decrease buying frequency and buy an ounce at a time, or buy just as often but buy 1/4 oz or 1/2 oz instead of full oz. It isn't about the spot price, it is about the premiums. Don't get hit twice (USD->silver, then silver->gold), get hit once and hold.

      I do think it’s a prudent strategy to just buy whatever is “not in favor”, but with silver premiums so low right now, I think buying silver to eventually trade up into gold now makes a lot of sense. For sure premiums can go negative (as they have in the past), but that typically happens on silver moonshots, when you’d be happy to get close to spot price anyways.

  • @SpiritStoneSilverRoses
    @SpiritStoneSilverRoses 5 месяцев назад +4

    There is no relationship of debt/money to any physical asset. Because the fiat system has exploded the currency supply and the valuations of debt-based assets the silver-to-gold ratio will collapse in the impending event of a global bond market collapse of confidence. All current valuations must detach themselves from debt assets and attach to a physical commodity of known quantity. Thus silver becomes immediately remonetized/liquid/ beneficiary of vast currency denominated valuation. What purchasing power will be will be wholly dependent on the percieved willingness of the counterparty to hold the silver as a long term store of value in the manner that gold is held- which it of course will. Copper, nickel, steel, platinum will benefit but not to the extent that gold and silver always do when confidence is completely lost. All items of value are primarily denominated and understood in terms of dollar amounts ALL ACROSS THE GLOBE. Silver is merely the MOST USEFUL metal in ADDITION to being precious NOT a solely INDUSTRIAL METAL. Thus the gold to silver ratio collapses to unheard of lows in the impending debt collapse. NO ONE WILL CARE or TRUST the central banks and their failure will be deeply and profoundly resented. Silver will be the absolute premium collateral as gold will be the unit that vast sums of value are denominated in. There are less than 10 grams of gold per person supposedly held by the Treasury in the US. That means 10 grams represents the entire collateral of each person's lifetime money supply as a conceptual basis. We will need new concepts when this debt collapses...which is very soon.

    Short of silver supplies _drying up_, I don't foresee a 16:1 S/G ratio. 60:1 is reasonable. If silver begins acting like a monetary metal again I could see a 40-50:1 being possible.

    I still consider a Hunt Brothers scenario can easily play out, but this time in the physical market. The mistake the Hunt Brothers did was they used leverage on paper contracts. This isn't necessary any more because there are so many people who can buy the complete physical supply. There is a yearly supply of 1 billion oz's of physical silver (about 23 billion USD). A small group of billionaires, or just one person like Elon Musk could buy ALL the supply for 2024. With silver it doesn't need the central banks - it only needs a few individuals. However, if one central bank like Russia wanted to create chaos to the USD, all they need to do is spend some of their 'pocket money'.
    However, I'm still amazed that no one has bought up the physical supply in the last years. It would be interesting to know why no one has emptied out the COMEX warehouses - the financial ability is clearly available.

    The ratio gold to silver is represented here since 1987 forward. However, historically it averaged 15:1, and some people like to point this out. However, that ratio is unlikely to appear again. LOTS of silver is now obtained mining entirely different elements... Copper, Zinc, Lead, etc... the list is long. Many MANY more mining concerns exist today which are not in the business to find silver, but do anyway as a by-product. I think your 60:1 assessment is more likely. And still be a boon to the silver stacker. Cheers.

    Funny this topic comes up. I was just corresponding with another channel about the GSR and how it effects my decision making. My overall goals are to have enough silver to cover 12 months reserve (You know when the zombies government or banks come a-walkin). Almost 1/2 all of the gold I have acquired has been from taking advantage of the silver spikes in spot/premiums. When silver was scarce and rose to near 30.00 I sold off 50% of my silver purchased sub 18.00 for 30+ and ounce. When ASE's were 45.00+e. though distribution, I was lucky enough to sell every eagle I had for a slight discount from online price. Although I do have a few silver pieces I will not part with, I look at silver as a tool. If you average the GSR it has one long rise from 40:1 to 85:1 (going back to Nixon of course). IMO the fun is working the GSR with gold as the endgame.

    My holdings are currently in a weight ratio of about 48 ounces of silver per ounce of gold. At today’s spot prices, that’s a value ratio of about 1.8 dollars in gold per 1 dollar in silver. I want to move towards more gold, but it has been difficult, psychologically, because I perceive the value proposition of silver to be greater right now, even with the difference in premiums. However, storage issues for the silver are starting to factor into the equation. I feel that the primary utility for silver will be to sub-divide gold for daily transactions, whereas the primary utility for gold is storage and preservation of wealth. Therefore, a 1.8 : 1 value ratio, IMO, is unbalanced in favor of silver from a utility perspective. I feel that something closer to a 5 : 1 value ratio, or possibly greater, depending on the gross value of all the holdings, would be better.

    If you average out everything (high/low/average G/S, mined, g/s to dollar ratio, production, reserves) you get a G/S ratio of 40:1. Not sure if this means anything but maybe gives the most average ratio between the two.
    I wouldn't play the G/S ratio game because the numbers are arbitrary since historical charts mean nothing to what the future brings, only guesses. Any major catalyst could plummet or drive up the ratio. I like to keep it simple and not try to get caught up in what that perfect stack ratio of X:X (silver to gold) is. I buy both depending on what deals I find or what makes it fun to stack to keep me stacking. With that my stack is showing to be around 149:1 (S/G). Could be too high, could be too low for some people but lets be honest, nobody knows until hindsight.

    Why is the ultimate 'GOAL' for gold:silver STILL expressed at the historical ratio of 15:1 when gold is only mined at 7-8:1 to silver, and above ground gold reserve is higher than silver and silver is consumed by industrial applications in green energy (PV, EV 5G - which don't work without silver), also electronics, medical applications, water purification, catalysis, soldering, etc etc , as well as historically being real money (as physical, rare, and divisible). The 21st century applications are something that in history using their valuations and could never even dream of the future reality and innovations we have today.
    Remember Oil was practicably worthless until the 20th century until refined as a cheap alternative to whale blubber and bee wax for heating and lightning, as paraffin was produced as a 'cheap' substitute, and the newly emerging automotive internal combustion (IC) revolution when petrol (or gasoline) could be substituted in the newly invented alcohol based engines and 'diesel' for the compression engines as a substitute for vegetable oils (and subsequently kerosine or jet A1 fuel for aviation). In addition, as a substitute for 'phenol and formaldehyde' bakalite as the 20th century plastic revolution exploded. Not only that but the gasification of oil produced nitrogen fertilisers to grow more food for an expanding population and replace dung and seaweed. History is history. Vast wealth emerged from Texas to Saudi Arabia from once worthless oil.
    In the 21st century, carbon based pollution and global warming as a consequence of oil use will be substituted yet again. And in our generation by silver based applications for energy, electronics, fertiliser (green ammonia) and much much more as new applications are patented.
    But, there is a problem. Silver is much rarer than oil and "wealth" will shift to those in the possession of silver. Make no doubt, the 'silver age' has begun. So, the same question once again: Why would the ULTIMATE GOAL for gold:silver be EVER projected at a ridiculous historical ratio of just 15:1?...
    Unless value is solely determined upon reading charts, looking at horizontal analysis, vertical analysis, ratio analysis, trend analysis and cost-volume profit analysis? or looking at the Fibonacci sequence trends or looking for cup and handle patterns or forbid it all, relying upon analysis of comex and LME paper trades?

In the past, grain, tea, and especially textiles were actually competing currencies. In the modern world, grain and other products don't compete with precious metals as currency. Only fiat competes, and if currencies weaken further, precious metals will certainly outcompete weakening currencies and inflated real estate for a store of value.

      I wouldn’t say that’s entirely true. Rulers decided on debasing currencies which moved the ratios based on many factors.

      @@baldguymoney5568 the people were swift to restore their purchasing power when hard money was debased by using grain, textiles, and other goods as currency. The rulers then fell, because demand for hard money decreased in proportion to the increase in supply. At the point soldiers were no longer satisfied with being paid in hard money, if they weren't permitted to loot and rob their own people, they turned on the rulers and killed them at the behest of the next guy in line for power.

      That would require all fiat currencies to fail at the same time. I think it will be a slow move of people into it.
