Overview: What does a shortage in silver mean? In a word, everything. If the initial clues of a silver shortage get transformed to the industrial silver users and large investors, in terms of increased physical demand for 1000-ounce bars, the industry standard, then say good-bye (and good-riddance) to the silver manipulation.

Having sent out several emails requesting commentary regarding Prof. Antal Fekete's article stating essentially that China holds mass quantities of silver based upon their many millenia of the use of silver as money, I have not yet received a reply as to the true international supply demand fundamentals of silver from any source.

If true that China sits upon massive quantities of silver, then it would seem the price of silver will rise based more upon China's desire as to where the metal will go.

At some point, the future of silver will not in my opinion be dictated by COMEX but by the Chinese central governments expectations of its direction and velocity.

I would like to see the countering points of true international silver supply debated by the experts.

Rebuttal to Fekete:
I just read a book titled: The Inflationary Spiral; China 1939-1950. Written by a native Chinese with inside knowledge of the banking system, this book proves that China wasted all of its physical silver during this time - shipped a lot of it off to the U.S. When you understand the years of war, famine, destitution, and govt. confiscation the average citizen had to endure, there is no way that meaningful personal stockpiles could have been held during these times. At times, the govt. even went door to door looking for physical precious metals. Any specie that they were able to rob from their citizens quickly got vaporized through excessive govt. spending.

Ca-ching!!! Can you feel that Fekete?! I just dunked in your face!!!

Nice slam dunk,
Forget Fekete. Some people will NEVER get it even when it SLAPS them upside the head.
"Silver is at $1247??? But there is LESS of it than gold! And it is used for MANY things. And Gold is so PURTY!!!"
Yeah, that boy is as sharp as a bowlin' ball.
Quick as Molasses in January.
Bright as silvermine without a lamp.
As intelligent as...
You get the picture.
Dude just don't get it.
Bet he ain't GOT it either,

He does seem to have blinders on, with a gold carrot dangling in front of him.

Hey there kirk,
China has been dumping silver for years. They've got to be nearly OUT by now. Why else would we be entering "The Quickening"*?

*Yes, I have named the event which begins now: The meteoric price rise of silver.

JestorJay, I wouldn't go so far as to say that China is out of silver. They are not going to be out until all the mines in Asia stop producing. That doesn't however mean that the government there necessarily has a lot stock piled, government graft being what it is...

If there is silver stock piled in China (or India for that matter) it is probably in the hands of the commoners who buried it and hid it away when their government tried to confiscate it. The rural people throughout China and India have as much faith in silver and gold as we do, and those people will trade their paper money for silver and gold and hide it away just like we do.

I don't begrudge them that...
