The Silver Opportunity
We don’t want any of our friends and clients to miss out!
Everywhere you look, commodities are screaming higher and higher. Gold, coffee, chocolate, uranium, copper, nickel. And silver!
But nowhere in the commodity complex is the opportunity greater than in silver! Try taking delivery of investible quantities of chocolate and storing it for years to come. How about uranium? Now there’s a real liquidity problem.
Yet silver checks all the boxes. It is among the most liquid and widely traded commodities, perfect for individual investors. When you buy silver of .999 percent purity, the standard for investment bars and most coins, you don’t have to have the silver assayed when you choose to sell. Good luck with liquidity for investment-grade quantities of coffee.
Silver has a history of thousands of years as a monetary commodity. In fact, silver has been used as money longer and in more places than gold itself.
At the same time, its industrial use for things like electronics and photovoltaics grows every year. Silver industrial demand rose 11 percent last year. And last month silver stockpiles tracked by the London Bullion Market Association fell to the second-lowest level on record.
As we write this, gold prices are up 17.5 percent year-to-date while silver has surged by 35 percent during the same period!
With that move, silver remains at bargain prices. It is still way below its all-time highs. Silver was $50 an ounce in 1980. That was 44 years ago. Are there any other major industrial commodities that are 40 percent below their price of 44 years ago? Don’t kid yourself!
Silver reached highs of about $50 in both 2011 and 2012.
Lately, our radio messages and blog posts have focused on alerting our friends and clients about the opportunites unfolding in the silver market.
