Ron Paul on the Gold Standard

If I was a betting man and I am. Ron Paul will be the next President; either as an interim one or as the candidate elect in 2012. The origin of the Tea Party is Ron Paul, not Sarah Palin. He has the Jihad behind him, not her. Wait till you see the magic that they will create for the next election. The first Internet President.

Get your Silver here, extra extra. Silver to go through that glass ceiling that Hillary likes to talk so much about..

Secret Gold in the Grand Canyon

MacKenna's Gold starring Gregory Peck and Omar Shariff alludes to secret Gold stashed in the Grand Canyon. Hollywood often communicates the truth through story. If you want to know what is happening in the battle between secret societies than you need to watch some film! Bix Weir of Roadtoroota.com claims that the U.S. government has nationalized the parks to protect the Gold hordes to be taken out at a later date, when the Fed is dead and we return to Gold/Silver backed money. That time is now as the signs are all their. Germany is paying off their World War I debt on Sunday. The Treasury can pay off the Fed with a similar paltry amount.

The U.S. CivilFlag may be the flag of the newly restored Republic and Ron Paul may be the President. Stay tuned for more cool shit. Buy Silver if you want to support the return of a Constitutionally based Government. Silver is the achilles heel to expose the paper fraud in the metal markets.

Gold and Silver Conspiracy Story Bix Weir

Bix Weir is my favorite writer on Gold and Silver. He does incredible amount of research and then combines it with an insightful fertile mind. This is not some sterile academic approach, but combining intuition with research through the reading of occult symbolism of the money changers.



My story begins, like most monetary stories, in 1913 with the creation of the Federal Reserve Bank in the United States and when gold and silver were still the most valued monetary assets in the world. I'll leave out all the prior bank monetary manipulations although there had been many minor ones prior to 1913. As was outlined by G. Edward Griffin in "The Creature From Jekyll Island", the monetary power of the United States of America was literally stolen from the people and handed over to a group of powerful European banking families and is still under their control to this day. They run their US operations under the auspice of the Federal Reserve Act. Of course there is nothing "Federal" about the US Federal Reserve in that it is not part of our government and there are no "Reserves" to speak of other than the right to create the US Dollar out of thin air. Although their mandate is to "create price stability" over the past 100 years that they have been in charge of the US Dollar it has lost over 98% of its value which is a hidden inflation tax on the citizens of the United States and the world.

You likely already know all this but the manipulations and conspiracies that surround gold and silver over the past 100 years are not merely urban legends but many are grounded in FACT as exposed by the Gold Anti Trust Action Committee (www.GATA.org). Now I must admit that I have been involved with GATA for quite some time and more often than not my article submissions are shot down for being too conspiratorial or lacking of proof. I understand Bill Murphy and Chris Powell's reluctance to publish anything that may threaten the credibility they have worked tirelessly to build over the years...but that doesn't mean I'm not right!

On with the story...

The beginnings of large scale physical gold manipulations come from an incredible gold discovery that is almost too wild to believe...until you check the facts. After WWII a vast gold hoard (mostly stolen from other Asian countries) held by the Treasury of Japan was discovered hidden in the Philippines by a staff member of General Charles Willoughby who was General MacArthur's Chief of Intelligence.(1) This gold was hidden in over 175 sites across the Philippine Islands and it has been reported from many sources that the treasure may have been more than 300,000 tons of gold and other treasures. Over the years this gold has been used as the main source of covert funding by the US and Western intelligence agencies to manipulate markets, overthrow governments and enrich the personal coffers of those who have been charged with administering it. This treasure has been known by many names including Yamashita's Treasure, The Golden Lily Treasure, The Black Eagle Fund and many other off shoots. This amazing revelation became known to the public with the 2003 release of the book Gold Warriors: America's Secret Recovery of Yamashita's Gold written by Sterling and Peggy Seagrave.(2) Given that the total amount of gold ever mined in the world is estimated to be only about 160,000 tons, this gold discovery created both a blessing and a curse for the United States over the years.

The announcement of this gold find in the 1940's would have crushed the value of monetary gold around the world, and since the US Government was the largest holder of monetary gold, it would have significantly devalued our sacred Constitutional money. There also would be many claims from other Asian countries that the gold belonged to them thus upsetting the balance of power and wealth in the region. The US decided to keep this treasure a secret and what grew from this treasure trove was a twisted, deceitful and corrupt secret cabal of insiders that literally believed they ruled the world. Every US President since Truman has known about this secret treasure and the organizations that grew up around it. The institutions that were involved with this treasure are vast and powerful including JP Morgan, Citigroup, AIG, the World Bank, Morgan Stanley and the list goes on and on. Washington power players from the early days of Bill Donovan and Edward Casey to modern times with the Bushes and Dick Cheney have used this treasure trove to advance their agendas. Today they are known as "The Enterprise" and are now the evil step child of the United States that no one dare speak of.

From the end of WWII until the early 2000's this group has worked in the shadows and went virtually unnoticed implementing covert policies on unsuspecting counties around the world. In addition to advancing their national agendas they also were corrupted by the wealth that the treasure provided lining their own pockets along the way. Much of this operation was run out of the NSA and CIA through programs discussed in John Perkins book "Confessions of an Economic Hitman"(3). Since the publication of this book many EHM's have come out of the shadows to tell their stories.

Through all this madness the Federal Reserve Bank was for the most part run by people who were not part of the banking cabal and actually had the best interest of the United States in mind. Many of them knew of the dark side of their banking lineage but I believe many were not part of the banking cabal -- at least not at first. One of the most honest of the Fed Chairmen was Arthur Burns who was a very strong advocate of the Gold Standard in his early days and also just happened to be the mentor to a brilliant young economist named Alan Greenspan.(4) To this day this frame of the Wishes and Rainbows comic released by the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston shines like a beacon of hope that someday this cabal of bankers will be defeated.

Attention GOLD Investors:

What would you do to take down the Gold market riggers? What would you sacrifice? How hard would you work if you KNEW that the culmination of your effort would end the long term manipulation of gold? As for me, I am very tired of fighting the Gold Cabal, but I am also tired of watching all that I love about my country get washed out to sea by the Manmade Monsoon of Market Manipulation that is currently sloshing over the United States of America.

Let's Finish This Thing!
Apmex- Reliable and inexpensive Silver retailer.
I'm going to say it flat out...SELL ALL YOUR GOLD INVESTMENTS NOW AND BUY PHYSICAL SILVER! This is not a joke and don't get me wrong, I am the biggest "gold bug" you've ever meet, but it is time we ended their evil game. The Cabal has shown their Achilles Heel over the past few years and it is not gold but the depletion of physical Silver available for delivery that will ultimately lead to their demise. Many of us figured out long ago that physical Silver will likely run out before physical gold simply due to the tiny size of the Silver market compared to Gold, but most of us have not ACTED on this knowledge to accelerate the demise of the Gold Cabal due to our affinity for Gold and all that Gold represents... sound/honest money, freedom, liberty and justice for all!

Recently, I have been thinking a lot about Gold as money and why I personally believe that Gold is the best form of hard money. Why not Silver or platinum or copper or zinc? I must admit that most of my knowledge on this subject comes from the writings of other people. I have read hundreds of books and articles by brilliant economists, sound money advocates and other monetary philosophers who have dedicated their lives to the study of monetary theory. I am truly amazed at the vast amount of intellectual capital that has gone into the analysis of Gold as money with each monetary thinker building upon the knowledge passed down by others through the ages.

But What do I Think?

If I had no idea about monetary theory and history, what would my conclusions be? How have these writings influenced my affinity towards gold as opposed to other hard metals? Is it possible to NOT be influenced by information passed down over the years and clear my mind enough to use my own cognitive reasoning on this subject?

This is what I have been pondering over the past few years and my conclusions have shaken me to my Gold Bug foundations! Although the facts and fundamentals of gold as the best form of hard money may have been true 50 years ago, the world of Gold and Silver has changed dramatically since then such that now SILVER is hands down the best hard money investment compared to all other metals....even GOLD!

The Facts
Apmex Silver retailer
The following is a list of facts and reasons to switch all your Gold investments into Physical Silver:

1) Due to the tiny size of the Silver market and the lack of physical Silver available to the manipulators, the Silver battle is much easier to win than Gold. Ted Butler's discovery of massive Silver market manipulation should highlight the size, scope and importance of Silver to the current financial crisis.



2) Central banks have NO physical Silver to assist in the manipulation of the Silver market but they still have a lot of physical Gold (although much less than they claim).

3) The majority of Silver mined every year is consumed as an industrial metal in very small amounts and will never return to the market whereas the amount of above ground Gold grows year after year.

4) Silver has developed, due to its low price and superior physical properties, into a vital and necessary industrial commodity that makes it mandatory for modern life. If we woke up tomorrow and gold vanished from the face of the earth, life would continue pretty much as it was the day before. Without silver, modern life would change.

5) Due to the relative very low price of silver and very high price of gold, the man in the street, around the world, is in a position to buy silver in much greater quantities than gold.

6) In various forms there is an estimated 5B oz of above ground Gold and 5B oz of above ground Silver but Gold trades at $1300/oz and Silver trades for only $21/oz. Both metal prices are obviously manipulated but Silver appears to be manipulated more. As for Silver bullion that is "in play" for the manipulators, I estimate that less than 500M oz remain with a current market value less than $11B.

7) Silver has been in a supply deficit for over 50 years! Governments held approximately 10B oz of silver in 1950 and have been supplying that physical stock steadily into the market. Today there is no more of that surplus silver left to sell.

8) At current Silver consumption rates there are only 16 years of known Silver reserves remaining in the world. AFTER THAT SILVER WILL BE GONE FOREVER! Think about it.



9) Demand for Silver is "inelastic" in its industrial applications because it is used in such small quantities per application. An increase in price does not translate into a decrease in consumption.

10) The COMEX Silver short position is the largest concentrated short position of any commodity, on any exchange in the history of financial markets.

11) Throughout human monetary history the Silver to Gold ratio hovered in the 10-1 range until the invention of futures and options trading in metals. After the massive manipulation maneuvers by the Banking Cabal the silver-gold ratio now stands at over 62-1.

12) The US Dollar as defined in the Coinage Act of 1792 is Silver, not Gold, and contains "three hundred and seventy-one grains and four sixteenth parts of a grain of pure, or four hundred and sixteen grains of standard silver."



13) Silver is massively under reported in the media vs. Gold. Even Jim Rogers, the commodity guru, purposefully ignores Silver entirely in his best selling book "Hot Commodities" even though Silver exceeds all other commodities using his metrics on what makes a strong commodity.

14) Very few investors have physical Silver in their possession. Reasoning: because they claim it is "too hard to store". Does that mean when Silver trades at over $1,000 oz people will be more willing to buy and store physical Silver? It is difficult to make up a more bullish argument to take delivery and store physical Silver TODAY...when the Cabal price rigging scam finally fails you can always buy your own Fort Knox to store all that pesky Silver you bought!

15) Gold's strong fundamentals are only exceeded by Silver's so when the gold manipulation stops and the Gold price takes off investors will be looking for the next under-priced investment with similar characteristics.

16) 470M oz of Silver owned by the US Treasury and used in the Manhattan Project for the construction of the atom bomb have all been melted down and sold into the physical market to support the "Strong Dollar Policy"

The Great Silver Mystery...REVEALED!



17) Silver mineral deposits, as opposed to Gold, are usually very shallow in the earth's crust due to the nature of the geology so most of the large deposits of Silver have probably already been found and/or already mined limiting future discoveries.

18) There is a significant problem with counterfeit Gold coins and bars because of its high price. Silver coins and small bars have not, to date, had as much of a counterfeiting issue because its price did not justify the effort. (although there is a problem with counterfeit Silver jewelry which may significantly suppress Silver scrap recovery in the future...oddly bullish by-product of counterfeiting Silver!)

19) The total dollar value of the Silver market is a fraction of the total dollar value of the Gold market.

20) Most flat screen televisions use Silver in their internal electronics/screens and the US transfer from analog to digital signals has increased the demand for flat screen TV's.

21) Retail physical shortages of Silver are already beginning to appear around the world. The list of announced delays/curtailment by Government owned Mints now includes EVERY MAJOR SILVER COIN PRODUCING COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!

22) Hedge funds are bleeding from the credit crunch and they are looking for ways to save themselves. A single hedge fund can scoop up the remaining physical Silver and blow the price sky high.

23) In the US, Gold confiscation laws are still on the books but there are currently no silver confiscation laws.

24) As of late 2010 the Gold price gold is hovering around $1,300 or 150% of its historical high. Silver, on the other hand, is hovering around $21 or 42% of it's historical high suggesting that Silver has a long way still to go.

25) Un-backed paper Silver programs such as silver certificates and unallocated pooled accounts are the "industry standard" these days and will be scrambling for metal when redemptions are called in by the investors. The most egregious example of fractional reserve silver is the iShares Silver ETF (SLV).

26) In the past few years the massive global money creation by central banks around the world has created huge reservoirs of cash sloshing around the asset markets looking for a safe haven. Although most mainstream press have discussed Gold as being a likely bucket to fill with this monetary firehouse, SILVER has all the same monetary metal properties as Gold except the Silver market is SO small it would be like FILLING A DIXIE CUP WITH THE FIREHOUSE!

27) The CFTC still has an open investigation into the manipulation of the SILVER market that is being conducted not by their investigative division but by the CFTC "Enforcement Division". Although the final conclusions have been purposefully delayed by the CFTC, the final outcome may finally be the END OF THE 50 YEAR MANIPULATION OF THE SILVER MARKET!

28) During the CFTC hearing on metal position limits, GATA announced that a whistleblower has come forward with specific proof that JP Morgan was rigging the silver market. The next day he and his wife were rammed in their car in an attempted murder. The suspect was caught but the police are not giving out any information about the suspect or others that were involved.



29) The growth of emerging economies in Asia will require more and more industrial silver to build out their electric infrastructure and provide a higher standard of living for their middle class. In a global market that has been in a silver supply deficit for years a silver bidding war will result in order to obtain the significant amounts of silver needed.

30) The truth about gold and silver price manipulation is spreading like wildfire throughout the world with the help of the internet such that the Banksters "shabby secret" is no longer a secret.

31) The US Dollar has run it's course as the world's reserve currency. The entire global financial markets know this and are positioning themselves accordingly. The "Dollar End Game" for the United States has never been to transfer economic power to Eastern countries as the dollar dies but rather crash the global markets and start fresh with a new domestically centered economic model. That transition is upon us:



Well, now do you think SILVER is both more important and a better investment than your gold?
Hopefully, that's enough pro-Silver data to convince you to make the switch.

What About Gold?

There are some pro-Gold items which, in fairness, should be weighed against all the pro-Silver arguments:

1) Gold does not tarnish. (That's nice but hardly a reason not to make the switch)

2) Gold is promoted and perceived by the world as the "Greatest Monetary Metal"....at least for now!

Not to be "anti-gold" but from my calculations there is 10x the amount of physical gold in the world regardless of what the "mainstream gold media" claims...meaning there is OVER 1 MILLION TONS OF PHYSICAL GOLD!

Golden Secrets



Also, my calculations on silver estimate that there is 10x LESS silver in the world because of all the potentially phony physical silver ETF bars out there...

Silver "Moly-Bars"



Don't worry about Gold....really. Gold, like Silver, will find its rightful place in a freely traded market. It should take less than a few $Billion of physical Silver purchases to buy up all of the available Silver bullion, and that would only mean switching out of about 200 tons of Gold on a physical basis. 200 tons would not significantly damage the price of gold. Now $10B removed from GLD/SLV, Gold/Silver Pooled Accounts, Gold/Silver mining stocks, etc. would be much better for the price of Gold and should not cause any permanent damage to the gold investment community. As a matter of fact, can you think of anything more positive for the price of gold and gold investments than the destruction of the Banking Cabal?!

So what should be the true price of Silver today?

I don't know but I do know that the price quoted on the COMEX and LME are not even close to silver's "Fair Market Value". It makes more sense to me to estimate the true price of Silver in relation to another "Monetary Commodity" such as Gold since gold is currently "perceived" as the best monetary metal.

* Based on my estimates of total above and below ground Silver (17Boz) and Gold (8Boz) the Silver/Gold Ratio should be 2.1-1. With Gold trading at $1,300/oz Silver should be trading at $619/oz or is 29X UNDERVALUED!

* Based on my estimates of total above ground Silver (5Boz) and Gold (5Boz) the Silver/Gold Ratio should be 1-1. With Gold trading at $1,300/oz Silver should be trading at $1,300/oz or is 62X UNDERVALUED!

* Based on my estimates of total monetary bullion above ground Silver (1Boz) and Gold (3Boz) the Silver/Gold Ratio should be 1-3. With Gold trading at $1,300/oz Silver should be trading at $3,900/oz or is 186X UNDERVALUED!

Of course all this is predicated on the assumption that gold is fairly valued at $1,300oz today which almost everyone agrees is a joke. Since the USA holds a little over 8,100 tons of gold in reserve (supposedly) it is logical to assume that Gold will back the US dollar when the fiat money system fails (not hard to imagine the failure of the US dollar). With the US M3 money supply currently estimated to be in the $14 Trillion dollar range, the price of a redeemable gold backed US dollar would be about $54,000/oz IF the US stopped printing dollars today.

The $54,000/oz Monetary Gold price would put the value of monetary above ground Silver bullion, as analyzed in the last bullet point above, at....

.... $162,000 per oz!
Sovereign Flag of America!
Crazy, I know, but it really doesn't end there!

Based on the FACT that Silver is being consumed 120% faster than it is currently being mined/produced and the Gold above ground supplies are growing at 2% per annum the Silver/Gold Ratio Formula should be [(Above Ground Silver)(80%) to (Above Ground Gold)(102%)]. With Gold trading at a massively manipulated low price of $1,300oz, Silver should be approaching INFINITY AND IS INFINITY(X) UNDERVALUED!

Wow....chilling conclusions...have you traded your Gold for Silver yet?

Dear Billionaires of the World: Silver

Yes, The silver market in physical bullion possesion is about to explode. JP Morgan is closing it's trading desk where the majority of the Silver manipulation has been taking place. Look for prices to skyrocket over $50 signaling the beginning of the bull market correction.

(The Silver Market is a tiny $1.9 billion)

Silver Stock Report

by Jason Hommel, September 2nd, 2010

It is too late for any of you, personally, to buy much silver below $20 per ounce.

While silver prices languished at about $5/oz. for almost two decades until about 2001, it's now too late for you to buy much, if any, silver below $20/oz. Did your personal wealth increase that much in the last decade like silver prices did? I don't think any billionaire in the world matched or exceeded that performance.

The silver market is very tiny, and thus prices are still potentially very explosive--especially if one of the 1000 billionaires in the world tried to buy any. The potential for future gains far exceed what has happened in the last ten years.

Only a tiny $1.9 billion dollars worth of silver per year is bought for investment; most of that is purchased in the USA, that's about 100 million troy ounces of silver, at $19/oz. Of that, nearly 40 million ounces of silver per year are being produced by the US Mint in the form of 1 oz. Silver Eagles.

I've been writing about silver for ten years, sharing and learning silver market information, with 80,000 readers. You can review any of my articles online at www.silverstockreport.com. Here's what you should know about silver:

World silver mines produce about 650 million oz. of silver, worth, at $20/oz., about $13 billion. More than that is consumed by industry, jewelry, photography, with the difference being met by recycling.

But investors are buying more than selling now. The people who produce the statistics call that a "surplus", but that's a white lie. As there's really not nearly enough silver to satisfy all the people who may wish to protect the value of their paper money, or other assets.

With "money in the banks" being only a small fraction of potential assets that could be converted into silver assets, and with money in the banks headed towards about $18 trillion, only about 1% of 1% of US paper money is buying silver in a year.

That means that by the time 1% of US Paper money tries to buy silver, then investment demand would be 100 times higher than it is today, and that $180 billion would try to buy into a $13 billion market, which could push silver prices well over $200/oz.

This is an understatement, as all the paper money in the world could conceivably buy all the silver and gold in the world.

I urge you, or your staff, to do further research into the facts about silver that I've shared with you.

It is my opinion that the purchase of silver is a race, given where prices are going. The race has started, and the billionaires of the world are not yet on board.
WARNING:

The BIS, the Bank of International Settlements, has produced a report showing that the world banks have $200 billion in notional value of silver derivatives. This increased from $100 billion, in a span of 6 months. Question! Where did they get $100 billion of silver to sell, when the world only produced about $10 billion of silver per year? Hint: They didn't. The notional value of their silver derivatives is a short position! The big banks OWE $200 billion worth of silver, on paper, to investors who have not yet asked for delivery. Besides paper money, this is the world's biggest ongoing fraud.

Thus, you should avoid buying the Silver ETF's, avoid buying any futures contracts, avoid buying silver, even "allocated" silver from any LBMA member bank, and stick only with buying real bars of silver from refineries or wholesalers.

The Silver SlingShot Bix Weir

We are on the verge of the greatest bull run in any commodity ever. Silver could be set to run 10X current price. Apmex is the most cost-effective supplier on the web.

The amount of information on silver as an investment being analyzed and discussed lately has been astonishing. I remember only a few years ago that it was only the likes of Ted Butler, David Morgan and Jason Hommel that ever promoted the amazing investment opportunity that silver represented. Now there are literally hundreds of "pro-silver analysts" out there talking about the supply/demand deficit, COMEX Commitment of Traders Report, fraudulent Silver ETFs and the dual role of silver as both an industrial metal and monetary metal. I LOVE IT!

Of course having so many eyes on the silver market you would expect that all the bullish silver angles have been addressed, investigated and exposed but I have found over the years that there are always some bullish factors hidden in the mysterious world of silver investing that explode into the consciousness of the market at the oddest time compounding the reason for silver to rapidly rise in price. Ted Butler has exposed the most of the bullish silver discoveries in his studies of silver spanning many decades, but that does not preclude the little guys out there from exposing a new idea/discovery that further promotes the silver cause.

Today we are on the threshold of something so large in the silver world that it will astound every man, woman and child on the planet…even the silver bugs! In my second Road to Roota article Greenspan's Golden Secret I discussed the plan by Alan Greenspan and friends to destroy the entire monetary system in a one time Creative Destruction Event. Read this article to understand what that means.
Greenspan's Golden Secret
If you open your eyes long enough to see past the monetary smoke and mirrors these days you can tell it is happening as we speak. We are down to the end days for the fiat monetary system with the implosion being dragged on since September of 2008 and very soon to come to a climax.

So what will happen to silver? Glad you asked!

There are many silver enthusiasts out there today with vast amounts of money sloshing around in "silver related" investments such as silver derivatives ($111B as per the BIS), silver ETF's ($5B+ most in SLV), silver mining companies (est $8B by JH), silver certificates ($10B… my own estimate), silver futures and options (unknown billions) etc., etc.

This is about $150B+ worth of silver investments that really have NOT positively affected the price of physical silver since no silver was actually purchased. At least half of this money has negatively suppressed the price of silver by selling silver derivatives with no physical backing at all. Even mining share investments. Think about it. Your silver mining company investment helps capitalizes mining companies to create more physical silver adding to the supply where that money could have gone directly into physical silver decreasing the supply!

I see these people as "knowledgeable silver investors" who know the story but chose to believe that the system will stay in tact such that they will have time to obtain the reward for their investment when silver rises in price….that will be their big mistake when the final hammer falls.

This is where I see a NEW Silver Slingshot effect for silver.

Although greed is a great psychological force that can drive markets up, fear is by far the ultimate motivator in any investment mania. Trying to "stop the bleeding" on investment losses is like trying to catch a Samurai Sword dropped from the top Empire State Building! When we have the Creative Destruction event I doubt the $150B in "silver related" investments will ever pay off because of all the risk/credit layers between you and your silver. Imagine the chaos when we have total banking failure, total brokerage house failure, total exchange failure, total 401k failure, etc. How will those "investments" ever pay off with all those levels of credit risk and defaulted entities between the investor and his silver rewards? Will mining company stocks still be traded without the DTCC or the NYSE or the CFTC?

And what about those silver mining stock certificates that you have in your safe deposit box? Will they be worth anything? First ask yourself…with a fiat money crash what will be the new currency? You can bet it will have to be backed by something (most likely gold and silver) but what will the citizens of the world say about private ownership of the mines that control their money? With 99.99% of the population NOT holding any real gold or silver do you think they would allow the .01% to control all the wealth of the nation or the world? I doubt it.

Well "Silver Related" Investment Gurus…whatcha gonna do now? The worst thing I can imagine is fighting the silver battle for all these years and not getting the payoff when all your predictions come true.

So here's the SLINGSHOT moment.

When silver investors realize the scope of the coming Creative Destruction Event the flood of cash from $150B of "silver related" investments into the tiny physical silver market will destroy "silver related" investments and SLINGSHOT the price of physical silver to unimaginable heights…are you really ready?

NOW IS THE TIME TO SWITCH TO 100% PHYSICAL SILVER!

Don't delay because as this reality begins to show over the next few months I doubt you will be able to get that physical position you've been putting off for those increased silver returns from your mining stocks, options and derivatives.

It's game time for silver so don't get caught sitting on the bench!
