The Silver:Gold Ratio, 1687-2011  |
We have something special this week: the open market value of
silver, compared to gold, over a period of over three centuries. The
location is London.
For a long time, silver and gold were, in a sense, two versions of
the same thing, just like one dollar bills and twenty dollar bills
are today. Their ratio of value was not perfectly stable, like the
20:1 ratio of $1 bills and $20 bills, but it was quite stable
between about 16:1 and 15:1. Both silver and gold serFriday, March 27, 2020 |

Stock Market Volatility Attributed to 'Shenanigans' |
Back in January, I discussed the likelihood that global equity markets were approaching simultaneous tipping points beyond which legions upon legions of GenX-ers and Millennials would be thrown to the wolves by failing to recognize the financial mania engulfing them. I alluded to it being "Time for the Beast to Exhale," and within a few days, my volatility trade (UVXY) exploded to the upside as the "beast," better known as the global stock market ascent, finally exhaled and fell 3,300 Dow JonesFriday, February 23, 2018 |

Trump Tax Cuts Have Postponed Economic Collapse: “The U.S. Has Become The Tax Haven Of The World” |
The last several years have seen massive gains for both stock market and digital currency investors with prices hitting unprecedented levels of growth. But one particular asset class, despite its necessity for day-to-day global activities, has been totally ignored by the general investing public. According to venture capital financier Carlo Civelli, there are varying reasons for why mining companies involved in commodity metals like copper, zinc, gold and silver have been either stagnant or seenWednesday, February 7, 2018 |

From the Heart: Own Precious Metals |
One of the things from which I occasionally enjoy a good chuckle is the insecurity displayed by bloggers or newsletter writers who are constantly in need of positive reinforcement derived by reminding readers of their "incredible market calls." It is always readily-predictable because just before they ask you to buy something (like a subscription), they post a link to emphasize their brilliance with phrases like "as you know" or "back in 2017" providing breathtaking introductions to their most rTuesday, February 6, 2018 |

WORLD’S LARGEST SILVER MINES: Suffer Falling Ore Grades Rising Costs |
The world’s two largest silver mines have seen their productivity decline substantially due to falling ore grades and rising costs. Gone are the days when silver mines could produce silver at 15-20 ounces per ton. Today, the Primary Silver Mining Industry is likely producing silver at an average yield of 4-5 ounces per ton.In my newest video, I discuss the changes that have taken place in the world’s two largest silver mines, the Cannington Mine in Australia and the Fresnillo Mine in Mexico.

A New Bull Market In Commodities Is Emerging |
We’ve all watched in amazement, while the equities markets around the world have risen to new highs. On Wall Street hardly a week goes by without a new record. There comes a time however when a sector becomes so overbought, that smart money begins to leave and search for a sector that has been overlooked. That moment is now at hand, as can be seen in our first chart – courtesy sources listed.
This chart compares equities to commodities. In 1970, 2000 and today, equities have become overpricedThursday, January 25, 2018 |

Mining CEO Warns Of Massive Deficits: “We’re At Critical Levels… Less Than 10 Days Of Supply” |
With much of the investment world focused on crypto currencies and blockchain, it’s no surprise that the fundamental building blocks of the physical world have been ignored for so long. The focus in recent years has been on mining digital assets, but in the real world mining companies that specialize in essential metals like silver and zinc have been warning of massive deficits that, as SGT Report notes in a recent interview with Callinex Mines CEO Max Porterfield, could easily lead to supply shMonday, January 22, 2018 |

AS SISYPHUS FAILS GOLD WILL ASCEND |
Welcome to 2018 – a year that will be the culmination of at least 105 years of mismanagement of the Western financial system by governments, central bankers and the elite.
2018 will be a year of major volatility in many markets. Stocks are now in a melt-up phase and before the major bear markets start in virtually all countries around the world, we are likely to see the final exhaustion moves which could be substantial. The year will also be marked by inflation increasing a lot faster than expecFriday, January 12, 2018 |

Gold Will Move Much Higher in 2018 |
Gold is for wealth preservation and silver is for everyday currency and everyday transactions. We will see money, which is gold, returned to the monetary system in our lifetime. We will see silver being used as currency in our lifetime. I believe cryptocurrencies will make this possible and I believe cryptocurrencies are awakening people in ways the cabal/oligarchs/globalist, whatever you wish to call them, in ways they didn’t think possible.
