I'd like to see a SILVER move to the $18-$19 level and then stabilize at that level. That would provide a good foundation for much higher levels. I want SILVER to move higher, NOT lower from here.

In what time frame? Silver will hit Country's target in the next two weeks, might almost break $20 by end of March, but there is usually profit-taking during April. After the summer doldrums, during which we could see $15 again on market-manipulations I think you'll see a foundation built in the $21-22 range leading to a year high of $25-26 in late November

Hoard now and hold on!

If silver dropped to below $10 an ounce, I wonder how outrageous the premiums would be.

Penny, If it did drop the premiums would have to drop if the price held there for a few months? People would want to cut their losses if the demand drops i'm a thinkin. who knows. I need a time machine LOL.

We've been there. When silver was busting down around $8 an ounce, premiums were spot+50% and up.

If we see $20 silver before summer then it may be a good time to sell (depending what you got into at) because I don't think it would hold for very long at that price.

Jamie, I agree with you somewhat. Remember it isn't silver which is rising in value, but the dollar which is depreciating. Our old buck ain't healthy... it's circling the drain. So timing sales of silver bullion for fast-declining in purchasing power FRN's is almost a lesson in futility. I will probably NEVER sell by physical bullion. It's an "assurance" policy and let's me sleep at night. That said, $20 bullion does seem like a good target to set my sell limits at for some of my ETF's and silver and gold mining stocks Sell during spring peaks, buy back during summer lows

Hoard now and hold on!

It all depends on how much physical silver you are holding. I have my holding silver and I also have my trading physical silver. I have flipped 100 ounce bars in the past since the premiums on them are low. Even during the small bar silver shortage you could still buy 100 ounce bars at a very reasonable premium. Unnecessarily large premiums are robbing a lot of small silver investors of a lot of their hard earned money.

No one knows what the silver market will or won't do, but a profit is a profit. I'm not giving out investment advice, but too often I see cash poor silver holders watch the market climb and drop back again and never realize a profit. Then they wonder why they get discouraged.

For someone who holds small amounts of silver in the forms you describe, it is possible to trade in and out and increase your physical holdings gradually, provided your market timing is accurate. Anyone holding a few tons of face silver may not have as easy of a time finding a buyer, or a seller when they want to replace what they sold. I also am loathe to sell... then watch the market run away from me as I'm sitting in FRN's. I'm willing to endure the at times gut-wrenching launches and retrenchments to avoid having that happen. My holdings are my pension. When I eventually need the money I will sell off a few ounces at a time to cover expenses. The situation is different for anyone with an investment horizon longer than a few years. It is frustrating to watch silver bounce the way it does, but hindsight is always one hundred percent. Not so, foresight.

Hoard now and hold on!

Where do you sell your 100 ounce bars? I might need to do something like that.

I think you'll see more market manipulation if silver starts to get too hot to maintain the grand FRN illusion. Even though supposedly there are alot less short contracts, you still have powerful players (like JP Morgan) who want to see silver fall.

I see a rise in prices but I think it will get crushed before or at $20.

I sell at local dealers though I do have accounts and a reputation at a couple of major internet dealers too now

I was talking today to one local dealer and his connection thinks that next week should be a big gain week for precious metals. He (the dealer) has a huge amount of scrap sterling he plans to dump if silver pushes near $19.00 again.

I don't think it would take manipulation to drop silver prices if we close in on $20.00. There would be plenty of holders who wouldn't mind taking profits at that point.

I noticed it was locked earlier, i didn't see any reason.

I think I will sell off some silver if it reaches 20 and buy back during a dip.

That is why I ask that members not jump to conclusions if they see a thread locked or even if one disappears. Stuff happens sometimes and it is out of our control.


I think I might sell some too.

I don't think it is a conspiracy since I don't think Forumco is either bullish or bearish on silver. But something appears to be screwed-up with this thread.

Let's not and say we did. I kind of hate to stifle a good conspiracy since it is great for the ratings around here.

When it gets close to $19.00 I will sell some and wait and see. I feel the tree will be shaking pretty good this year and the swings either way will be interesting and beneficial if timed correctly.

Well next week may help tell. I wouldn't be surprised to see silver over $18 by early next week and pushing $19.00 by Friday. If $20 is going to happen anytime soon then it should occur on this run-up. But I don't see prices over $18.00 lasting throughout the summer.

I believe that it is going to be a hard ride, anyone not expecting or able to tolerate the fluctuating market will get pinched. If in my wild imagination I was to foresee an event it would go as follows.

We will ride this pony to a 21 to 23 range, after she simmers down a bit it will be time to take her to the stables for a cool down maybe 14 ish (give or take) then it will get bumpy with no clear signal.(up and down a buck or two) Later in the year we may have a return to the show for a run at the medal. But this again will be kept at bay, and the lass will be called home once again, left to fester and and stew at her reigns.

Many things weigh heavy on this shiny little object. To its handlers she needs to stay. But her vision is to run, to be free and challenge the yellow metal for a place that seems her destiny. Nature is at work here and its place has yet to be determined. The very reality of its purpose cannot and will not be denied. As a stepchild wishes for his father, this Metal will not be tamed by no man or machine. It understands its value and will not settle to be kept silent. The journey will be like a hurricane as it destroys all in its path yet honored for its power. Many will perish and many will cheer as the storm rages on.
