What I meant by this is why has the price of silver been so LOW since 1980? The Hunt Brothers excluded? 9-11 attack, hyperinflation fears, record gov spending? That's all.

that is the main stream media story, yes. do you know the exchange changed the margin rules in the middle of the game to destroy them?

today, the the price is manipulated down and no one is going to jail.

Buying:
Peace/Morgan G+ at $15.00

lots of interesting ideas on this thread.

taking profits - this is always a good idea. however, when you buy, you should have some idea of when to exit. in the 70s, gold and silver rose about 25x. so far they are up about 3-4x. that leaves about 8x to go. seriously. so if you are thinking long term, this is not the time to exit.

shorter term, i see 2 things that are interesting. first, seaosonally, gold and silver tend to fall during the summer. this is a long standing trend. second, silver has risen from about 11.50 to 14 in a very short time. also, it rose with gold rising much more slightly. whenever something goes up quickly, it usually pulls back. further, the rise of silver independent of gold is not explained. of all the weeks for Ted Butler to be on vacation!

i am buying silver for the long term, so I am not lightening here. but i'm waiting for silver to pull back before I add. silver is looking a little rich relative to gold. of course, i already have some silver and gold so if this is it its not like the train is going to leave without me.

Buying:
Peace/Morgan G+ at $15.00
copper cents at 1.3X
wheat pennies at 3X
