Silver Set to Sparkle

Marc,

I agree with you that silver will likely outperform even gold in the coming years, and support your selections for equities... except that I do not recommend the ETFs at all. CEF has the track record and proven ability to time bullion purchases through non-dilutive share offerings at auspicious prices while serving also to reduce excessive premiums when they get out of hand. I agree that CEF's premium, which is indicated daily on its website, provides a helpful tool for timing the accumulation of CEF shares.

If I may, I would like to link my article on silver here as well, as I think it fits in nicely with the information you've presented here.

I have found visualization of the "slingshot effect" very effective in conveying to investors approaching silver for the first time to understand some of the mechanics of silver's movements relative to gold. I will, of course, appreciate your comments and those of your readers.

I also echo your call for $2,000 gold by the end of 2010. I expect silver to trade near $50 when gold hits that mark, and i do not rule out prices quite a bit higher for either metal as the mother of all currency crises unfolds.

Thanks again. I hope you don't mind these links... they are not intended for self-promotion by any means, but merely as a service to your readers in preparation for what I believe will be a momentous continuation of the multi-year secular bull market for precious metals.

I wonder if that was me picking up his shares of SLW the other day... if so, thanks for the terrific bargain. :)
