The Crime Against Silver  |
| In 1873, the Fourth Coinage Act was enacted by the US Congress. Western silver miners labeled this measure the "Crime of '73" because it stopped the printing of US silver dollars. The US had, unofficially, abandoned its bimetallic standard in favor of a monometallic one – gold.Saturday, August 8, 2020 |

| Silver as a Strategic Metal and Why Prices Will Soar |
| The arguments in favor of silver as an investment asset are growing rapidly. In the opinion of the Jackass, silver is the most under-valued hard asset in existence, with the highest potential for price appreciation on the globe. To begin with, central banks own no silver, but do own huge tracts of gold. Industry has huge demand for silver, but a trifling amount for gold demand. The investment demand is another key factor in favor of silver, but also for gold. Ever since the tech telecom bust in Sunday, January 21, 2018 |

| U.S. Gold Market Switches From A Surplus In 2016 To Deficit In 2017 |
| The U.S. gold market suffered a net deficit this year compared to a small surplus in 2016. This was quite interesting because U.S. physical gold demand will be down considerably this year. In 2016, total U.S. gold demand was 212 metric tons versus an estimated 150 metric tons this year. The majority of the decline in U.S. gold demand is from the physical bar and coin sector that is down 56% in the first three quarters of 2017 compared to the same period last year.So, why will the U.S. gold maSunday, January 7, 2018 |

As of my last Seeking Alpha comments on gold on September 15, gold (GLD) had hit my $1,360 target and I was contemplating the possibility of a break above $1,375. I believed at that time the best chance for this was in September/October, because after that we wouldFriday, January 5, 2018 |

| 2017, The Year of the Truth Bomb! (Part 1) |
| Here we are at the end of 2017 with more “truth bombs” released than I could have imagined! In fact, I believe we probably received more “truth” in just one year than collectively in all of human history. This is a sad statement because it also means we have lived behind more lies than at any time prior. Also surprising is none individually have cracked the dam called “confidence”. But do not be fooled as it looks as if the entire dam is moving, particularly in the last few weeks!

| Silver Demand Will Drop in 2018 Due to Solar Panels |
| A few weeks ago Jeffrey Christian, CPM Group, stated that silver investment demand was not part of the calculations used in his analysis to determine future forecast for silver pricing or silver demand. According to Christian if you include investment demand then your analysis is simply promoting the idea that there is a deficit in whatever commodity your analyzing. We’re not sure the evidence supports this concept.

| WORLD SILVER PRODUCTION: 3 Charts You Won’t See Anywhere Else |
| The rate at which global silver production increased over the past century is quite astonishing. When Columbus arrived in America (1492), the world was only producing 7 million oz of silver a year. Today, the world’s largest primary silver mine, Fresnillo’s Sauicto Mine, produced three times that amount in just one year (22 million oz, 2016). Yes, we have come along way in 500 years.Just think about that for a minute. One silver mine last year produced three times the global amount in 1493. Tuesday, December 19, 2017 |

The debate continues between the SRSrocco Report and CPM Group's Jeff Christian on the fundamentals of the silver market. After my article, in which I questioned the CPM Group's exclusion of silver investment demand from their supply and demand analysis, Jeff Christian responded with a comment on my website. I am glad that Mr. Christian responded because it now allows me the opportunity to explain in more detail why I disagree with the CPM Group's analysis.

| EXAMINING SILVER MANIPULATION: What Some Analysts Miss |
| One of the major topics discussed in the precious metals community is the manipulation of the gold and silver prices by the large bullion banks. Many precious metals analysts point to the massive commercial short positions held by JP Morgan and Scotiabank as the root cause for the low silver price. While I agree that the bullion banks’ massive short contracts are controlling the silver price to a certain degree, there’s another factor that is overlooked by the majority of precious metals analySunday, November 26, 2017 |

| Life Under Manipulation |
| We as individuals have little or no control over the state of markets, all we can do is adapt to market realities. In the case of silver, the reality is that it is in the grip of a price manipulation. History shows that various world governments have often artificially set the price of silver and gold in connection with official monetary policies. However, for the past 35 years a specific type of price manipulation has existed in silver via futures contract positioning on the Commodities ExchangSaturday, November 25, 2017 |
