Churning Silver Stock and Bullion Positions: Exit and Re-Enter or Ride it Out?
Robert Kiyosaki Is Wrong On Silver (ETF: SLV)
If he knew that most silver emulsion is recovered from processed film and fed back into the market, he would not have even thought about making such a comment.
In other words, drop film demand and you drop silver scrap supply. It's almost a zero sum game.
As for the US dollar, has he not compared charts of gold versus the dollar recently? Gold is negatively correlated to the US dollar to a very good degree. Neither do you just buy foreign currencies because gold offers more leverage against the dollar than the euro or yen. Same argument applies to silver.
Are there commodity and paper cycles? That's down to your own beliefs. I like the 55 year interest rate cycle typified by the Kondratieff Wave. It ended early this decade and presages increasingly higher interests for the next two to three decades. Increasing nominal (and hence real) interest rates is bullish for silver.
Finally, we are told to avoid silver because it is not income producing. Do I care, so long as it is rising more than inflation? Return on investment trumps yield any day.
Ignore the all or nothing approach to investment and put a little bit of precious metals in your portfolio.
Should Novagold be Renamed Novacopper? The Answer Will Affect Your Investment Strategy
The point of contention is what would the price of gold be if the base metals are at break even? What gold price did you assume?
In Defense of Peak Gold: Evidence Gold Production Peaked in 2001
Undersea mining will be as much the way ahead for gold as it was for oil. I just don't see it halting a long term decline in gold production. Nevertheless, it is an exciting prospect for the next phase of gold mining.
