Silver has always moved higher with gold when the US dollar weakens or we hit a recession. Silver has never been thought of as an industrial metal until recently. Most of silvers 30% gain in 2024 has nothing to do with it's industrial use, but has everything to do with the dollar weakening, a possible US recession looming and the world tensions and wars. Silver and gold are both at their strongest when the US dollar and the US economy is at it's weakest, with silver's industrial use being a small factor
I watched an old video of Warren Buffet and Charlie Munger talking about their silver holdings from the 90s. They played good cop-bad cop and basically gave the message that buying silver wasn’t a great investment. But, I got to thinking, why should we trust them? They’re fully aware that cheap silver is critical for the manufacturing businesses they have interest in. And nowadays, how does a silver to gold ratio of 90 to 1 make any sense at all?
Before he croaked, Munger said Bitcoin was "rat poison." Buffet said "rat poison squared." They were so successful with the old money, they could not recognize something new.
Actually Buffet was right but this was the past - decades when Silver and Gold were artificially suppresed by the largest Western banks This way gold and silver wont make the USD look so bad The big shift here is while the Wester banksters are openly suppressing Silver- BRICS esp. Russia India and China are taking delivery There is now a looming shortage of physical silver and the price in China actually decoupled from the Wester exchanges like LBMA and COE
Charlie Munger also thinks that hard working responsible childless adults shouldnt own homes but single mothers who smoke meth and have 5 kids should own homes
You can't be serious. Putin is COMPELLED to dump all of his precious metals to make Xi happy. Both Red China and India are (traditionally) MASSIVE silver importers. Putin can NEVER be a serious player in silver. He has to ship it off to India and Red China just to hold his tyranny together.

So far I've purchased 2 1oz. rounds, 1 2021 silver eagle, 1 1oz bar and 1 5oz bar and I almost have enough for a 10oz bar (by next month). I just love everything about stacking. Thank you so much!!!

Physical silver is just insanely undervalued right now. Everything else has just gone up multiples and, yet, physical silver remains one of the most manipulated markets ever. Should easily be $100-$120/oz. right now. If about even 4 or 5% of the US population start saving/investing in metals like some of the other world cultures, they'd have to revalue precious metals overnight.
Most silver traded is imaginary silver, it only exists on paper, it's not really there. As soon as buyers want physical silver to be delivered, then the price of silver will outperform gold.

Problem is there's a real chance of markets falling after US elections. If silver is hopefully $38 by the it could fall to $22...and here we go again... HOWEVER in the next cycle bonds and most equities will not be that desirable. Whole markets will be lead by like 7-12 companies after consolidation after crash and only safe hedge will be Gold. Then silver will follow and rise very quickly. But it could be another 1-3 years for everything to come together. In the whole scheme of things that is nothing for silver.
True, but you couldnt buy any at that price. It was unavailable or had massive premiums. You never can buy the physical in those deep drops when the entire market dumps.
@@knockoutfever4 you couldn't buy it because mints just said they were out of stock. They were never out of stock. They just wanted to wait til paper price came back up before selling. They think we're idiots!!

Decades ago, I used to give 1 ounce silver ingots as Christmas gifts. At from 5 to 8 dollars an ingot, it was a cheap way to really get an inexpensive WOW from someone on Christmas morning.
How is that relevant? Silver does not have the same standing as Gold which is Tier 1, VAT free. Silver coins are priced AND taxed like an industrial commodity at 20% VAT. Here is quote directly from The Royal Mints webpage: "However, physical silver and platinum bullion, regardless of the country of issue, are subject to VAT at the current rate of 20%"(...)"There usually has to be a good reason for the government not to add VAT to a product, and silver & platinum are no different." So selling silver bullion in UK you instantly lose the 20% VAT you once paid and only get spot price. That makes it tricky to stack. It's similar in Sweden - a court ruling deemed that silver bouillon should have no exempt status and is therefore treated the same as any industrial metal commodity at 25% VAT. Stupid? Yes, but true nonetheless.
@@malmstring How is it relevant? Silver is a monetary metal, it has commercial properties but that is a side issue. Silver is more liquid than gold, is ideal for barter and exchange. Are you going to use Gold, No, you will be robbed, you will use silver armchair warrior.
@@malmstring did you watch the video? he was discussing how silver is no longer a monetary metal and is industrial. I was pointing out that it is still legal tender in the UK. It's entirely relevant to the video.
Russia has been making silver the new dollar. For over two years now, Russia has been selling oil to China for two ounces of silver for a barrel of oil. The silver price has remained stable for oil. When oil hits $100 a barrel, the Chinese will still be paying Russia two ounces of silver for a barrel of oil.
Been buying quarters from SD and have been very impressed by the variety and quality. Many RPM's and mint state. Resale value far more than what I paid 😊
Silver at $100 makes a great exchange for a days labor. Imagine if they simply revalued 1 Oz Silver lady liberty coins with a $100 dollar denomination... what you think would happen?🤔
I always thought they should do this. They should make a BIG distinction between the silver industrial commodity and minted coins that are official money. There should be completely different rules and taxation surrounding it. But Silver is a strategic metal - it will never happen.
@@knockoutfever4 they are called $100 for $100 not sure of all years but from 2013 to 2016 they are 1oz 9999 silver they have different wildlife pictures on them - horse, Muskox, cougar, bighorn sheep, Elk, etc
Russia is buying Silver because its a hard asset. Plus if they are buying from Internal Suppliers, the money stays inside of Russia and goes into the coffers of Russian industry. The money will also be used to keep mines open & pay the miners. Also, Silver is a critical "War Metal" that goes into modern Hi-Tech weapons. It's a No Brainer and an Economic "Win-Win". We should be doing it.
Silver is not money any more. It is a far more valuable industrial metal, and becoming more scarce with every passing month. That is why Russia, and soon to be many more nations will be following their example.
Both the medium and long term charts on both gold and silver are screaming higher prices are coming .... the 8 year up cycle for metals still has 2-3 years to run
@@selfaware114 actually, recent math has an oz of silver at over 14k per ounce from what russia has planned for gold@155k per ounce.... has me really concerned because im a multistacker.
I just checked the price of 90% silver at Monument Metals, and SD Bullion, and Monument Metals kicks their butt, which is the case 95% of the time. Don’t listen to these youtubers, that are sponsored by SD Bullion. The best deals right now are: 90% Monument Metals, BU random yearSilver Eagles and gold, Bullion Exchanges.
Perhaps, someday, silver's actual value will be cognized for it's worth. All the recent demands for it from industries and countries has to have some kind of effect on it's true value... One would think.
So the Russians are bidding up the price of silver so: 1) US missiles are more expensive (lot of silver in a missile), 2) solar energy is more expensives (lots of silver in a solar panel). Good strategy if a country has a lot of fossil fuels. I have no idea if Russia actually mines a lot of silver.
The french , spanish, latin word for Silver is around ARGENT, Argent in French is the word for Money,, Argentina the silver country, Argentier was the minister of finance of finance What has changed?
Silver will never be used for money like before 1965. But the idea is that FIAT currency is backed by nothing is killing their economic rubble. Their idea is to back at least 20 to 25% of their rubble it would strengthen it. If you can hold do it
Smart Silver Stacker if you’re saying there is a paradigm shift going from an industrial metal to a financial commodity does that mean the U.S. economy in buying silver going down
Just curios. Why Russia announced it when it can lead to rise in prices. To increase its acceptance ie others also buy and then it becomes a metal that backs currency?
its probably to weaken the us dollar. if you announce it, that creates panic buying and that can cause a short squeeze in a heavily shorted market. a lot of ppl think that US banks are lying about how much physical they have. so if ppl start buying and wanting delivery. they dont have it.. it makes the us banks have to buy more and exit theor shorts causing the price to soar
And why did India buy tons of it recently . The issue is anyone going to put a ratio on gold vs silver ? At that point the price of silver will explode .
Every time my friend finds bottles of silver nitrate powder in the garbage at his place of work, he'll grab them for me to convert into silver metal. I've already got about 3-4 ozt that our government has thrown in the trash.
Thank you for an informative look back over recent historical appreciation of what and where silver fits and bring me up to day, understanding what is happening and why it is likely t happen - You hit all the buttons that matter...!!
Any country would be smart tying their currency to multiple assets. Gold, silver, oil, Bitcoin etc all at once. Not just gold, or not just oil. This would stabilize a countries money and economy in a way not seen in my lifetime. Every country seems to tie to one thing or nothing. And when that time comes, the money rapidly loses all value.
People keep saying silver is gonna go up in price to price of gold, but it never has. Silver will never be valuable as gold, i dont care how many times people will say price of silver will be equivalent to gold, i highly doubt it. No matter if theres a shortage itll stay between 19 bucks to 40 an oz. Gold will forever be the go to stacking metal, i do keep silver on my stack, but not as much as gold. Lets put it this way, gold is tier 1 asset, and monetary leverage. Stocks, bonds, etfs, silver and copper is like tier 3. Just because these theories or thoughts about silver going to drive up to a all time high, it will never happen.
This will continue to propel silver valuations in US$ well above $33/ounce in the next 5 years. It is time to buy silver coins and bars to protect an investor's assets. Short term goal is $50 in 2 years and $125 in 5 years.
Gold, sell your silver, don't buy into it they just want to get rid. Make real money Gold silver makes pennies just look at gold if you would have bought 6months ago. SELL YOUR SILVER EVEN AT A LOSS, you will make that loss up with gold. I know they sucker me into silver buying, don't make the mistake, years ago, but sold last year at a loss and bought gold. Who is laughing now. ME
From experience -- to all your buyers of SILVER - - shop locally - and your first question should be - IF NEED BE - WILL YOU BUY THIS SILVER BACK FROM ME ?? - and if in doubt about any silver - get your silver tested for purity at your local coin shop - get to know the owner and shop there !!
I love local coin shops, but there aren't any anywhere near where I live. That's why I use sdbullion.com for most of my purchases. They will also buy back your silver btw, sdbullion.com/sell
I strongly doubt Russia intends to monetize silver. But I totally believe they intend to hoard silver for two reasons. First given its uniqueness in enabling a range of future advancements in military, medical, solar, battery, etc applications. Second as economic warfare in retaliation to western imposed sanctions, knowing the enormous short positions of US banks, and the potential consequence to the western financial system that a breakdown in silver could cause.
How much will they actually buy, will they take physical delivery? How much will other countries? There could be a short squeeze next year. It's not impossible.
The ruble is extremely undervalued. Russia’s silver output is likely high enough that it will be bought within the ruble. If you adjust for purchasing power parity 55 billion rubles worth of Russian sourced assets by Russia’s CB is actually worth about 1.6-2 billion USD in equivalence.
Interesting perspective. Key words "if Silver is remonetized". That is a small percentage possibility. That doesn't mean it won't still be valuable and have it's value rise, it just means that a LOT more nations besides Russia would have to monetize it. In addition just having Russia Stack Silver doesn't really do much, it's a tiny market and they could of course cause problems within the tiny Silver market and especially because of it's industrial uses. Having said that, this is important information but it's not Silver becoming remonetized it is only an acknowledgement that there is monetary value in Silver and holding it. Anyone watching the 65% move of Silver over the last 12 months should have told anyone looking (not the mainstream media yet) that it is worth holding over time.
@seanoconnor1478 ive got about 380 rolls, 15,000 nickels. Just started sorting, 40 rolls in and 48 savers so far. Of course I can't wait for Monday to cash these worthless nickels in and use that $$ to reinvest in more silver. Thanks for the confirmation ☮️
Silver would need to be at 125 dollars minimum to meet it's all time 1980 price. We can't even barely keep it above 30 it's better to invest in the yellow metal because that's what countries and central banks all over the world are doing
the only flaw in your logic i see is that since silver is so important as an industrial metal, how will they allow the price to rise so high, as it would trickle through the supply chain and drive prices higher and higher for the end products that incorporate silver. i don't think the industrial cabals would allow that - they need to keep silver cheap...
1) Any additional costs will simply be passed onto consumers. 2) The input cost of silver into most goods is so minimal, that even if silver was 100x the current price, it wouldn't affect the price/cost of an individual unit by much.
you know, i stack old silver and gold certs for that very question of the unknown..... is it possible, yea it could.... could.... but will it.... i doubt it will. i prefer the real metal obviously..... but bills are surely lighter and cool to pull out from time to time.
Fact is silver always follows gold rally. It's not rare but the new ai and mining servers as big as buildings are gonna drive silver up unless they find a reasonable alternative solder.
Ive spent about 15,000 on silver and i have another 150 in the bank that id like to turn into silver but my banks been asking me questions about what ive been spending so much on. I told them im buying a car and i want to hagel with the owner. What should i say if im trying to get cash from the bank?
@DonaldMerrit they not only questioned me but they called me the next day while I was at work and double checked my address and place of employment event hough I cask my payroll checks there. Wtf? It makes me feel like I'm going to get a visit. Should I dig a hole before the ground freezes? 🥶
You know what is the funniest about all of this? Since 2020 I was telling everyone to buy and stack silver and if possible some gold. Most npcs always said "but i don't have cash for that". They had cash for subscriptions, drinking and so on. But not even to buy at least 1oz of silver per month. Time went on, NONE OF THEM GOT EVEN A SINGLE OUNCE. Today we all see the price of metals. Lads whatever you do, keep your mouth shut about how much you have, dont even write comments here. It's easy to track you down. Not even you family should know that, otherwise they will harass you or even harm you for that, not to mention selling you to the gov. Soon silver might peak at 100usd per oz, maybe even next year, if we look at current state of things. That metal might get you nice outcome from this crisis and even save your life if you need to flee. Stay safe frens, wagmi
Russia is the Hunt brothers catalyst for silver. But unlike the hunt brothers, Russia, as a great power cannot prosecuted to stop their buying. And as the price rises other central banks will follow in buying.
Possible that by 2030, if you don't have a license or you're not sanctioned in some way by your government, you will not own or deal with any precious metals. You could enter the Black Market, try your luck there but you'd have to also change your whole life, your identity etc.

The support for silver above $31 is extremely heartening! Get ready for blast off! T-minus 10, 9, 8..
Problem is there's a real chance of markets falling after US elections. If silver is hopefully $38 by the it could fall to $22...and here we go again... HOWEVER in the next cycle bonds and most equities will not be that desirable. Whole markets will be lead by like 7-12 companies after consolidation after crash and only safe hedge will be Gold. Then silver will follow and rise very quickly. But it could be another 1-3 years for everything to come together. In the whole scheme of things that is nothing for silver.
It can drop below that if we have a deflationary event like in 2008 or 2020. Both times it got cut in half.
True, but you couldnt buy any at that price. It was unavailable or had massive premiums. You never can buy the physical in those deep drops when the entire market dumps.

Silver is still a monetary metal in the UK, it's a sovereign coin and is capital gains tax free.
How is that relevant?
Silver does not have the same standing as Gold which is Tier 1, VAT free. Silver coins are priced AND taxed like an industrial commodity at 20% VAT. Here is quote directly from The Royal Mints webpage: "However, physical silver and platinum bullion, regardless of the country of issue, are subject to VAT at the current rate of 20%"(...)"There usually has to be a good reason for the government not to add VAT to a product, and silver & platinum are no different."
So selling silver bullion in UK you instantly lose the 20% VAT you once paid and only get spot price. That makes it tricky to stack.
It's similar in Sweden - a court ruling deemed that silver bouillon should have no exempt status and is therefore treated the same as any industrial metal commodity at 25% VAT. Stupid? Yes, but true nonetheless.
@@malmstring How is it relevant? Silver is a monetary metal, it has commercial properties but that is a side issue.

Russia has been making silver the new dollar. For over two years now, Russia
has been selling oil to China for two ounces of silver for a barrel of oil.
The silver price has remained stable for oil. When oil hits $100 a barrel, the
Chinese will still be paying Russia two ounces of silver for a barrel of oil.

Silver at $100 makes a great exchange for a days labor. Imagine if they simply revalued 1 Oz Silver lady liberty coins with a $100 dollar denomination... what you think would happen?🤔
Imagine if we revalued their paper 🤑
I always thought they should do this. They should make a BIG distinction between the silver industrial commodity and minted coins that are official money. There should be completely different rules and taxation surrounding it. But Silver is a strategic metal - it will never happen.

Russia is buying Silver because its a hard asset. Plus if they are buying from Internal Suppliers, the money stays inside of Russia and goes into the coffers of Russian industry. The money will also be used to keep mines open & pay the miners. Also, Silver is a critical "War Metal" that goes into modern Hi-Tech weapons. It's a No Brainer and an Economic "Win-Win". We should be doing it.

Rarity does not equate to valuable.
Silver is not money any more. It is a far more valuable industrial metal, and becoming more scarce with every passing month. That is why Russia, and soon to be many more nations will be following their example.

So the Russians are bidding up the price of silver so: 1) US missiles are more expensive (lot of silver in a missile), 2) solar energy is more expensives (lots of silver in a solar panel). Good strategy if a country has a lot of fossil fuels. I have no idea if Russia actually mines a lot of silver.
Silver is the new oil and the supply is thin much undervalued for now anyway
The french , spanish, latin word for Silver is around ARGENT, Argent in French is the word for Money,, Argentina the silver country, Argentier was the minister of finance of finance What has changed?
Silver will never be used for money like before 1965. But the idea is that FIAT currency is backed by nothing is killing their economic rubble. Their idea is to back at least 20 to 25% of their rubble it would strengthen it. If you can hold do it
Smart Silver Stacker if you’re saying there is a paradigm shift going from an industrial metal to a financial commodity does that mean the U.S. economy in buying silver going down
if you look at usdebt clock something changed as well..
Buy it when everybody is hateing it
55.1B rubles? I don’t know the conversion rate, but I’m guessing it’s around $10,000
Just curios. Why Russia announced it when it can lead to rise in prices. To increase its acceptance ie others also buy and then it becomes a metal that backs currency?
its probably to weaken the us dollar. if you announce it, that creates panic buying and that can cause a short squeeze in a heavily shorted market. a lot of ppl think that US banks are lying about how much physical they have. so if ppl start buying and wanting delivery. they dont have it.. it makes the us banks have to buy more and exit theor shorts causing the price to soar
And why did India buy tons of it recently . The issue is anyone going to put a ratio on gold vs silver ? At that point the price of silver will explode .

Thank you for an informative look back over recent historical appreciation of what and where silver fits and bring me up to day, understanding what is happening and why it is likely t happen - You hit all the buttons that matter...!!
Any country would be smart tying their currency to multiple assets. Gold, silver, oil, Bitcoin etc all at once. Not just gold, or not just oil.
This would stabilize a countries money and economy in a way not seen in my lifetime.
Every country seems to tie to one thing or nothing. And when that time comes, the money rapidly loses all value.
The defence industry uses a varst amont of silver.
Indeed they do
I’d like to see it happen.
I heard somewhere that there is a lot of silver in bombs and missiles. Unrecoverable.
People keep saying silver is gonna go up in price to price of gold, but it never has. Silver will never be valuable as gold, i dont care how many times people will say price of silver will be equivalent to gold, i highly doubt it. No matter if theres a shortage itll stay between 19 bucks to 40 an oz. Gold will forever be the go to stacking metal, i do keep silver on my stack, but not as much as gold. Lets put it this way, gold is tier 1 asset, and monetary leverage. Stocks, bonds, etfs, silver and copper is like tier 3. Just because these theories or thoughts about silver going to drive up to a all time high, it will never happen.
It will be interesting to see if it has any effect on platinum….. platinum is a much smaller market….
If gold reaches 3k/oz it’ll be lighter per dollar than $100 dollar bills. Will launderers drive the price even higher?
This will continue to propel silver valuations in US$ well above $33/ounce in the next 5 years. It is time to buy silver coins and bars to protect an investor's assets. Short term goal is $50 in 2 years and $125 in 5 years.
If it goes to 125,- I will have a nice Retirement. 😉

From experience -- to all your buyers of SILVER - - shop locally - and your first question should be - IF NEED BE - WILL YOU BUY THIS SILVER BACK FROM ME ?? - and if in doubt about any silver - get your silver tested for purity at your local coin shop - get to know the owner and shop there !!
I love local coin shops, but there aren't any anywhere near where I live. That's why I use sdbullion.com for most of my purchases. They will also buy back your silver btw, sdbullion.com/sell

I strongly doubt Russia intends to monetize silver. But I totally believe they intend to hoard silver for two reasons. First given its uniqueness in enabling a range of future advancements in military, medical, solar, battery, etc applications. Second as economic warfare in retaliation to western imposed sanctions, knowing the enormous short positions of US banks, and the potential consequence to the western financial system that a breakdown in silver could cause.
Good thing they waited until the ruble got stronger before they bought silver with it 🤦♂️ how much silver can you get for a ruble?
How much will they actually buy, will they take physical delivery? How much will other countries? There could be a short squeeze next year. It's not impossible.
Rubel will secured with real money Silver! I a few days we knew more! BRICS
The ruble is extremely undervalued. Russia’s silver output is likely high enough that it will be bought within the ruble. If you adjust for purchasing power parity 55 billion rubles worth of Russian sourced assets by Russia’s CB is actually worth about 1.6-2 billion USD in equivalence.
Interesting perspective. Key words "if Silver is remonetized". That is a small percentage possibility. That doesn't mean it won't still be valuable and have it's value rise, it just means that a LOT more nations besides Russia would have to monetize it. In addition just having Russia Stack Silver doesn't really do much, it's a tiny market and they could of course cause problems within the tiny Silver market and especially because of it's industrial uses. Having said that, this is important information but it's not Silver becoming remonetized it is only an acknowledgement that there is monetary value in Silver and holding it. Anyone watching the 65% move of Silver over the last 12 months should have told anyone looking (not the mainstream media yet) that it is worth holding over time.
Also, i saved 1964 and earlier nickels because i was told they contain silver. Is it true only the1941-45 contain silver.

Silver would need to be at 125 dollars minimum to meet it's all time 1980 price. We can't even barely keep it above 30 it's better to invest in the yellow metal because that's what countries and central banks all over the world are doing
the only flaw in your logic i see is that since silver is so important as an industrial metal, how will they allow the price to rise so high, as it would trickle through the supply chain and drive prices higher and higher for the end products that incorporate silver. i don't think the industrial cabals would allow that - they need to keep silver cheap...
1) Any additional costs will simply be passed onto consumers.
2) The input cost of silver into most goods is so minimal, that even if silver was 100x the current price, it wouldn't affect the price/cost of an individual unit by much.
Could silver back the dollar once again as silver certificates?
you know, i stack old silver and gold certs for that very question of the unknown..... is it possible, yea it could.... could.... but will it.... i doubt it will. i prefer the real metal obviously..... but bills are surely lighter and cool to pull out from time to time.
