Begin the analysis in 1971 when Nixon dropped the link between the dollar and gold. A pack of Marlboros cost (depending on local taxes) about $0.39. We paid about $0.36 for a gallon of gasoline. The DOW Index was about 850. Silver was priced at about $1.39.

By Chris Mullen, Chief Content Manager

When we discuss gold stocks we often refer to gold and silver stocks. Today we take a look at the silver stocks specifically. Below is a chart of our partially weighted producers index which contains 14 of the largest silver producers. We didn’t cherry pick the 14. We went down the list and that includes a handful of companies which have really struggled in recent years. Anyway, the 56% in the current cyclical bear is well in line with history. Previous downturns have been 51% and 49% and then…

Alex: So you think $100 silver is realistic in the next year or two? Eric: Well I think obviously with gold at $1600, I would believe that silver should be at a hundred. Does it happen in one to two years? Maybe not, but I would certainly say in two to five years it happens. And that’s just with gold staying still!
