The accord would end probes by the Justice…

Silver projections for the next 10 years

Anyone thinking of trading silver will need strong nerves and a cool head. That said, the rewards of silver trading go beyond the financial. This is a mysterious and mystical metal whose hold over the human imagination rivals that of gold. Think of the “silver bullet” said to kill werewolves or the 30 pieces of silver with which Judas is said to have betrayed Jesus. Back to the gold-silver ratio. This expresses the number of troy ounces of silver that can be bought with one ounce of gold. …

Key Gold Ratios to Other Markets: Gold/Silver Ratio

Gold/Silver Ratio Gold/Silver is in a potential bounce pattern with RSI and MACD positive divergences. A bounce (if applicable) – which would likely come in unison with a counter-trend bounce in USD could accompany more broad  market pressure and possibly a brief whiff of deflation. As we’ve noted in NFTRH for much of 2020, silver has trounced gold and that is a bigger picture inflationary signal in the “metallic credit spread” (H/T Bob Hoye). READ…

Precious Metals Better Investments: Uncle Sam Cuts Interest Payments to Bondholders

So, if money, or let’s correctly use the term “currency,” is a losing proposition,…
