Shelter From The Storm

Subject:Shelter From The Storm
By: Theodore Butler

Overview: For quite a few years, I have extolled the virtues of investing in silver. I based my premise on the real facts and supply/demand fundamentals specific to silver, its market structure, as well as the macroeconomic developments around us. My conclusion was that silver was about the best practical investment one could make. More than ever, I still am of that conviction. Fortunately, the results to date have supported that conclusion.

Ted's explosion still hasn't happened but I will say that he has always based his analysis on fundamentals and not religion or fiat money or the decline of the dollar or financial Armageddon or social chaos. I would clearly prefer that silver rise due to industrial supply and demand considerations but if it takes Weimar style hyperinflation or war in the Middle East or elsewhere I am prepared for that as well.

Check out the silver charts for the last 5 years and then tell me that there has NOT been a price explosion.
Can't do much better than silver has done, all things considered.

Going from five dollars an ounce up to nineteen isn't bad by any means but inflation has been up as well. Ted Butler has been predicting hundred dollar or more an ounce prices in his explosion for seven years now. He is making a good living off silver but so far very few of us have really done all that well.
I remember having a meal at the hotel where the 2006 Silver Summit was held. I overheard two men talking about investments. One of them said that there was plenty of silver around. At the time I just assumed he was misinformed. Now I am not so sure.

Sure, there's plenty. That's why they are SHORT in the SLV.
That's also why I could NOT buy ANY for about 2 weeks straight not so long ago.
And I am sure that is the reason that the US freaking MINT ran out of blanks and now is rationing, Hello? RATIONING!!! Silver American Eagles.
Things are rationed ONLY when there is a shortage.
I'm gonna keep buying,

I sure hope the long awaited silver shortage arrives and it should if investor demand ever increases significantly but I haven't read anything about industrial users having trouble obtaining silver.

And you WON'T hear much of anything in the mainstream media...
Until it is WAY TOO LATE!

If you see or hear news, your too late. To win, you must BE the news.

Act, don't react.

Don't see the ball, be the ball.

((And I'm sure you all can think up plenty more))
