BTW, for those just joining us, the banks are LONG silver and gold right now, and have been since December, so they must have called off the "conspiracy", but it just doesn't seem to matter! It turns out that when people do not have money, they sell their precious metals for....FOOD! Imagine that! India, after hoarding silver and gold in the Winter, are now exporting these metals like mad. Not to be outdone, the PM cartel is now selling their book by claiming....

news.goldseek.com/GATA...

that "concentrated shorts" are suppressing the price of these metals. It just gets funnier all the time.]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/128222-silver-gold-s-poodle?source=feed#comment-443543 443543 Sat, 28 Mar 2009 15:28:10 -0400
Nice Article, stands on its own, concise without the usual inanities surrounding buying Gold regardless of price.

Total agreement on Silver's future which is already being increasingly used in the Food storage area, the appliance sector and other areas like Laptop Batteries and health.

I did not watch your video, did not have to. Silver shortages will show up much faster simply because so much production has been taken off the market already in the form of the closure of marginal mines in the entire Base Metal sector.

Do you recommend exposure strictly via physical or do other investments come into play, such as SLV or the Miners themselves?]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/128222-silver-gold-s-poodle?source=feed#comment-443379 443379 I think metals should be a piece of every portfolio, but I question > the hyperinflation scenario some people are on about. ]]> Sat, 28 Mar 2009 11:02:52 -0400
A portable stash of silver and gold is good protection for anything coming in the next decade. Even the most optimistic concede these years will not be easy.

On the flip side of the coin, currency instability/volatility has been driving demand for pms as well. That's why I think it should be in every portfolio. Currency instability hedge + inflation protection.]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/128222-silver-gold-s-poodle?source=feed#comment-443266 443266 Sat, 28 Mar 2009 08:37:10 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/125982-drawing-the-silver-line?source=feed#comment-427481 427481 Mon, 16 Mar 2009 09:59:32 -0400
Mr. Morgan's website lists him as being a World recognized Author, Speaker and Teacher.

With these credentials, I would think that he would have greater access to the "Skinny" on Silver than we do. Besides he wrote a book on it.]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/125982-drawing-the-silver-line?source=feed#comment-427207 427207 Mon, 16 Mar 2009 03:19:53 -0400
The whole US Market is a PONZI scheme!

The markets will soon ALL FAIL!

It's ALL a SCAM!]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/125982-drawing-the-silver-line?source=feed#comment-427037 427037 Sun, 15 Mar 2009 21:36:24 -0400
Consider a normal short position, borrowing shares to sell into the open market, thereby increasing the number of shares outstanding.

In an ETF like GLD or SLV which purportedly holds the underlying asset, how would shorting them work? Would you have to have the physical equivalent of the units shorted to sell on the open market? Would they be actually sold on the market? How would one be able to cover the shorts?

Would a Paper equivalent like a nearby futures contact be accepted?

I do not know but do not want to find myself on the wrong end of the stick by investing in either.

Mr. Morgan, maybe you could use your influence to answer the above questions in some future article or steer us to a location where the questions could be answered?

Thank you in advance.

Damn those conspiring central banks (like they have nothing better to do than manipulate PM prices while the world's economies are deflating back to 1995 levels)!!!]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/125982-drawing-the-silver-line?source=feed#comment-426610 426610 Sun, 15 Mar 2009 13:16:52 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/125982-drawing-the-silver-line?source=feed#comment-426481 426481 Sun, 15 Mar 2009 11:57:22 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/125982-drawing-the-silver-line?source=feed#comment-426474 426474 Sun, 15 Mar 2009 11:53:09 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/125982-drawing-the-silver-line?source=feed#comment-426289 426289 Sun, 15 Mar 2009 09:39:33 -0400
Perhaps, but if the silver stays in the same vault, and all that happens is that the name of the owner changes, then in effect, SLV is sharing costs for storage with governments or others. Thinking of GLD and SLV as private subsidies for government-owned precious metals takes a great deal of the glamor out of the ETFs (their value isn't changed, but the cheerleading component sure declines).]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/125982-drawing-the-silver-line?source=feed#comment-426262 426262 Sun, 15 Mar 2009 09:21:14 -0400
I have also recommended CEF repeatedly. They may be viewed primarily as a Silver play but CEF also has about 1 million oz. of gold.(last that I read).

One is:contracts for future delivery of silver. These could well exceed by a multiple the actual amount of bullion that *could possibly* be delivered. In other words, certain players are massively short of silver.
(this would be highly bullish for silver, if not for the players)

The other kind is: Custodians' certificates that they are actually holding the silver in inventory, numbered and allocated to the real owners.

I must presume (barring outright fraud) that the 600 ton "inventory" movement in SLV consisted simply of the acquiring of such certificates.]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/125807-how-the-silver-etf-differs-from-real-silver?source=feed#comment-424674 424674 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 12:56:16 -0400

“The iShares are intended to constitute a simple and cost-effective means of making an investment similar to an investment in silver.”

Similar?? What on earth does that mean?]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/125807-how-the-silver-etf-differs-from-real-silver?source=feed#comment-424168 424168 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 08:17:17 -0400
Now if THAT isn't proof that the silver never existed I don't know what is. Not that I ever doubtred it - David Morgan has been giving convincing arguments like that for as long as I have been invested in silver.]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/124728-archie-s-rule-and-junior-mining?source=feed#comment-420077 420077 Tue, 10 Mar 2009 02:13:03 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/124728-archie-s-rule-and-junior-mining?source=feed#comment-419630 419630 Mon, 09 Mar 2009 15:56:35 -0400 i.e. Add up ALL costs to bring a product to market and unless you have twice this amount in the bank, forget it.]]> http://seekingalpha.com/article/124728-archie-s-rule-and-junior-mining?source=feed#comment-419430 419430 Mon, 09 Mar 2009 13:43:22 -0400 http://seekingalpha.com/article/124728-archie-s-rule-and-junior-mining?source=feed#comment-418716 418716 Mon, 09 Mar 2009 00:23:25 -0400
