"If you're a copper miner, you don't care about the price of silver. You just pass it off to your bank for them to sell at any price they like. That puts a lot of pressure on silver prices," explains Morgan.
Load of crap. The futures traders set the prices of everything and even the largest company's seem to have no control. Ever heard of Exxon saying, "Our price today is $75 a barrel?"
"The natural gold/silver ratio, or the amount of silver coming out of the ground relative to gold, is closer to 8 to 1," says Morgan.
I thought the prices of gold/silver were used to compute the ratio, not how many oz. are mined?
