Pocket piece I've been carrying for a while now. Photo doesn't do the toning justice. Strong rainbows. Engelhard prospector round.

Milk duds are one of my favorites! But looking at adding some SLV this morning to move up to $100,000 bars.

Nice to see metal prices come back to Earth. My DCA was really getting up there. I'd still like to see silver stay around $32.50. Gold can continue to run. Either way...still buying!

Hey H-A

With this downturn in silver, as well as, Fed rate reduction, do you think the Bigs are paring down their silver short positions?

I'm not sure. But election night saw a significant move from commodities to risk assets. A significant amount of dry powder was also pushed in. My back of the napkin theory is this is exactly type of mass sentiment needed to engage a blowoff top. Small caps (aka flying trash) running up even higher is going to create a lot of room below as the majority of those companies balance sheets are incredibly weak and some are even laughable.

SLV/SPX is still setting up nicely for outperformance. Might extend to next year, but I'm not even remotely bearish on metals. Gold is much further along though than silver. Watch the Gold/Silver ratio. Metals bulls dont end until that ratio drops to 40 or lower, and it can happen rather suddenly. Silver spiking is always the last thing that happens as retail and money managers finally move in only for it to top and roll over.

SLV/SPX

If we get a double bottom or even slightly lower low, we can start talking about silver outperformance of equities again. Until then, just waiting.

Myrmikan reports are always worth the read

This one makes the case that our Govt spending can only be resolved with higher gold

SLV/SPX - Awesome reaction off the low. Need to see 5-waves up into the 61.8% extension area and then hold a higher low from there. Do that, and SLV outperformance of equities can explode in a huge move.

Does anyone have a place where they have sold gold/silver in San Antonio? Place I've used before has been flaky lately.

If anyone wanted to purchase one of the 2024 Gold Flowing Hair Dollars from the mint and missed out, I'd be willing to sell mine for $4,360.

It is a 1 toz 24k proof coin, and looks pristine under my loupe.

Takes a while to get it out of the ground. Bull markets end. This one has more room IMO.

This came from an article where the author compared physical gold and silver to the returns of the traditional 60/40 stock bond portfolio https://thedailygold.com/gold-silver-still-near-ground-floor-opportunity/

Showing basically that -- with all we've experienced so far -- we still in early early innings of the game and that bullion is yet to truly break out again .... plenty of room to go stackers :-)

Went to see "Wicked" with the wife yesterday. If you're girlfriend, wife, or children manage to twist your arm into going, keep the allegory of the gold standard in mind and look for the comparisons.

And...

BTHOtu!!

That is all.

I believe the original Wizard of Oz (Get it? oz = ounces! ) manuscript had Dorothy wearing SILVER slippers instead of Ruby ... to represent the role of silver in a bi-metallic monetary system to help the wealthy and the common man

Anyway, to bring things into today, here's a nice little reminder I received in an email this weekend ... everyone's panting about the S&P 500 and not a peep about 2024 gold and silver

We are still early stackers

I think that is the spot price today for silver nickels. $50 = 1,000 nickels at $ 1.75 each

10 percent wear which is easily if not more puts them at 1.55

5 percent spread on bid price 1.47 to 1.63

And probably gonna be harder to sell but each to his own buying and collecting

My experience with war nickels is that they generally retail around or below spot and are repurchased at a comparatively large discount because of their bulk and the general lack of demand when 90% easily obtained. And….if anyone is considering SHTF scenarios….going to be much harder to convince community that there is silver in that nickel.
