Is physical silver an inflation hedge?

Not exactly true, you can use large fiat gains to purchase physical goods. A 10,000 investment in silver 22 years ago and sold when silver hit 50 could have netted you 100,000 dollars. Nothing wrong with cashing out and buying a house or paying off debt. Any tangible product could be a barter item when the dollar collapses. Alcohol may be worth just as much as silver for that matter.

It must have been Brandon. No one else is that stupid.

Silver is like Iraqi Dinars..

Keep hoping it will go up..

Sheeeeeiiiit!!!! Buy $10K in silver today. In about 10 years, it'll be worth around $10K. You'll be RICH!!!!!

Silver gonna drop now. Dollar up due to Fed's rate hike.

Here comes the deflation. I think silver will climb.

Is Silver plunging like ButtCoin?

Real money for thousands of years

It's clearly not an inflation hedge.

Most want fast money, I bought in 30 years ago at 4.00 an once. Also bought several coins graded they have all done well. Most buy and then sell when they need money and sell at lose.

I never handed someone a large piece of silver that did not buy some. Most on here talk shit and don't own any and never will.

How I got started won 750.00 at casino and on way home stopped at garage sale, guy had boxes full of silver Morgans
for 5.00 dollars each, bought all he had. Many of those are worth 80-150.00 each now, yep worth less investment.

People are going to need to camp on their metals all the way through the crash and into the rebuild process.. and they better hope a new-age (digital) system isn't ready to phase out (or outlaw) everything non-digital..

But we already know this is the plan

Keep buying those shiny rocks with peacock designs, the handful of dealers in your town will take care of everyone's exchange needs, no problem

The entire world seems to be turning their backs on faith based debt money and going towards commodities.

I bet the people of Lebanon, Turkey, Syria, Sri Lanka, Venezuela, Zimbabwe, Argentina (just to name a few) might have a different point of view

I bought a ton of silver back when it was 6 dollars an ounce. Holding on to it over time has really paid off.

Silver and Gold used to be the value behind actual dollars until that was changed sometime in the 70's.

Now the dollar has nothing backing it at all, but silver and gold are still available.

It should go up in price as the dollar drops. I think it's manipulated and should be much higher.

Not if they collapse the entire system. Yes it's under valued, but if there are no goods to exchange silver for then it's just metal. It seems like they want force mark digital slave world. If that happens my opinion this world isn't worth it to give up all free will to live.

Silver is a good backup currency and its physical properties are nearly identical to gold so it will always be useful as a precious metal. Its commonality makes it as cheap as it is and with populations booming that means theres enough to go around and fuel an enconomy (if we were actually using it for currency)

Is it a hedge? Not at all, it is a real market commodity and has real world use and value. People are urged to invest indirectly with multitudes of suggestions just like any targeted advertising campaign, so with anything like that you can expect certain demographics or people of particular lifestyles being persuaded to invest their money in silver although any of the other precious metals are good investments too.

Its all about taste and perspective. Personally I would invest in gold, platinum and rhodium because I drink straight liquor and silver is the beer of the metals world and I don't feel like getting all puffy and bloated.

560,000,000 ounces of paper silver futures contracts were dumped, all at once, on the Silver market the other day to make sure it didn't blow up on the usual suspects. The manipulation is illegal but the USG is right in the middle of it.

Sooner or later,
KABOOOOMM!

The hedge had everything to do with my decisions. And I am a proud owner of 2 Silver Eagles and a half roll of dimes.
lol

We are getting very close to the end game

It will be. Soon I think.

All metals, precious and otherwise often require large amounts of energy ie fuel, to run all of the equipment for mining, processing and delivery.

What has continued to be more expensive by the day? FUEL!

So I think that we are on he cusp of a potential breakout in the physical metals markets. You can't continue to swallow the costs of fuel for long without passing the costs on.

Silver is affordable.
Gold becoming less so.


Gold is the money of Kings.

Silver is the money of Gentleman.

Barter is the money of Peasants.

Debt is the money of Slaves.

  GOLD IS KING..

You think they are going to let the silvertards win?

Is anyone watching this thread buying Russian Ruples?
57.5 Ruples equals one USD at present.
