Okay, silver costs a price. silver in the future cost a price plus the price to store it. If silver always costs more now than in future no one is selling silver(in dollars). Wow for the first time i understand! and thank you!

Mideast turmoil looming oil crisis?

The rising price of oil can have dire consequences on any economy, and with the unrest in Libya, things are not looking good at the pump here in the United States. On the heels of the unrest in the Middle East, crude is heading for the biggest weekly increase in two years. The crisis is also being used by some politicians and media outlets to exploit their message of "Drill Baby Drill." Whatever the solution to our dependence on foreign oil, the short term economic ramifications for many Americans still suffering from the economic crisis appear dire if food prices skyrocket as well.the oil from Libya and Saudi Arabia are different. oil from Libya is has little sulphur, but oil from Saudi Arabia has a lot of sulphur.EU's refineries (main importers of Libya's oil exports) arent equipped to process oil from Saudi Arabia.


America's OIL is our emergency reserve.
Unrest in the Middle East is raising fears of tighter oil markets with analysts warning we could see $220 per barrel in the near future if oil production is disrupted in Algeria or Saudi Arabia. Foreign Policy Contributing Editor Steve Levine says if Algerian protests bring a halt to oil production it could force Saudi Arabia to its capacity, that's when oil prices will skyrocket.
With this huge push to start Drilling in America, it's a safe bet that World OIL, is running out.

OIL energy has been supporting an unprecedented world population of 7 BILLION people, when it does run out, get ready for a world that looks like The Road Warrior.

DAVID MORGAN : SILVER, LIBERTY & CFTC LIMITS

David Morgan is correct, If JPMorgan can't deliver physical Silver, most sheeple will gladly accept worthless paper dollars is lieu of metal. this is certainly the best interview David Morgan has done in a very long time......very revealing. I guess David is a bit conservative in ways, but he agrees the COMEX may default, Silver will continue to rise in price, and physical Silver is a very essential investment. However, he thinks JP Morgan can use "limitless fiat money" to cover its massive silver short positions....which leads to hyperinflation. JP and the wicked witch "Blythe" are going down! End the FED...Buy Silver!


The fraud being committed by the investment banks at the comex can be exposed. "Crash JP Morgan buy Silver" was the name given to the effort by Max keiser and Alex Jones to facilitate a Google bomb. That is why there is some confusion from time to time about the true nature of the campaign. Buy Silver and expose the fraud being committed on the COMEX by JP Morgan would describe the effort more accurately. With an unlimited supply of fiat currency bankrupting JP Morgan is not possible.
The banks have the power because we give them that extreme power. We have the power and every right to end their reign. The US can confiscate the Federal Reserve Systems' gold and silver and issue United States Notes.
Yeah, precious metals are a waste of time, that's why Ben ali left Tunisia with 1500 pounds of the countries gold, he didn't want them to be burdened with such a worthless asset. Less than 1% of the people own metals. That's why so many people are ignorant about real value or worth. The media and government have indoctrinated the masses to believe a piece of paper with a dead guys pictures on it is valuable. I bought silver @$12, $15, $17 and it's still a good deal. Still laughing?

Gold, Silver set for further price appreciation : Patriot Radio News Hour

Gold, Silver set for further price appreciation : Patriot Radio News Hour .I enjoy listening to these guys as they speak truth with a side of humble pie.

The silver price could reach $40 but remains vulnerable says Paul Walker

The silver price recently climbed to the highest for 31 years, more than $ 34 an ounce, it has the potential for further price rises. However, the price remains very vulnerable, because there is a significant supply surplus in the market . This is the opinion of Paul Walker, CEO of GFMS, a prominent consulting firm specializing ...

Silver never been so high since 1980

The headlines are all for gold, but it was silver which actually made all the more striking performances.the price of silver is the highest ever seen for a little over 30 years earlier when the market was under the influence of speculative purchases of Hunt brothers.
At the end of last year it took 65 ounces of silver to buy one of gold, while yesterday 58 would be enough . It is a confirmation of what industry analysts say: going up by 48% in 2009 and over 38% in 2010 , silver shows how it is an advantage being a precious metal and a metal with significant industrial uses .
It should be noted that even in the downward trend in the past, the metal showed a speed exceeding that of gold. And it is worth noting that the industrial uses may become a disadvantage when the economy limps.
In the case of silver increases are the engines of the weakness of the dollar (the currency in which prices are expressed), the low interest rates and the increasing industrial demand, in a mix that in recent weeks has been shown to operate at full regime, but that may not last forever.
The 2010 budget for silver should see a world production of about 23 thousand tonnes, which will add 7 thousand tons of recycled material. The question is half the industry (electronics ), with significant demands for jewelry, coins and ETFs, securities traded like stocks, whose prices replicate the performance of the underlying metal.
The silver , has a feature that is often overlooked: it is usually extracted from the mines in which silver is only a sub product. It means that any slowdown in interest in the primary metal (whether it be copper or lead, gold or zinc) has a negative effect on the extraction of silver.

The same can of course be reversed. But in these situations the risk is considered negligible. Indeed, the situation underscores the interest in the mining sector

Richard Russell: Gold is the Safest Currency

Richard Russell, the man behind Dow Theory Letters talks about the depreciation of the dollar and why he feels safe holding gold at the Casey Research Gold and Resource Summit , What that in the 70s-80s what was driving the gold market was the fear of inflation. Today its the fear of the collapse of the dollar.

Silver, Gold, Oil, & Revolution

Silver, Gold, Oil, & Revolution



The price of crude oil has reached 100 dollars, because of the revolution and turmoil underway in the middle east. This uncertainty usually boost the value of the dollar as a flight to safety. But this time the dollar has been excluded as a flight to safety. This is very bearish for the dollar. On the other hand silver and gold have performed as the premier currency, rising in value lock step with each other. Crude oild fundamentals are not as bullish as gold and silver. Millions of Americans are still out of work. So there is no need to drive to work, take a vacation, or even, cruse down the local strip just to get away. So as you can see oil consumption in the USA has gone way down. Also stock piles of crude oil are also above average, so there are no issues with supplies either. The main reason oil has regained most of its value since the crash of 2008 can be attributed to a falling dollar. Oil, gold, silver, and other commodities are all priced in dollars, and when the value of the dollar falls then it takes more dollars to buy the commodity. Higher commodity prices for all. the fundamentals for silver on the other hand are very strong. Silver and Gold are money, and also a hedge against inflation. So with high inflation, limited supply, dollar devaluation, and record high global demand for the precious metals, you can see a very bullish case for both gold and silver. The US government will need to fund 1.7 trillion of deficit in order to pay for their huge budget. Since china and japan already own a trillion apiece, and interest rates held at 0% buy the federal reserve. Their debt investment has nowhere to go but down. The federal reserve will have to make up the difference and buy the US debt through further quantitative easing, further devaluing the dollar and increasing the paper value of commodities, especially gold and silver.

Oil jumps to $ 120


Oil prices rose Thursday to $ 120 a barrel due to escalating fears of a severe shortage of supplies on the market in light of reduced exports from Libya, and the continuing turmoil in the region.

The price of European Brent crude today during the European trading more than eight dollars to reach $ 120 a barrel.

The price of Brent crude reached $ 110 yesterday, a new level in the range is the highest in two and a half year.

During Asian trading today, jumped U.S. light crude for more than three dollars to reach $ 102 a barrel.

The Western companies had suspended its work in Libya and withdrew its staff, while the rebels announced Libyan control over strategic oil installations, including facilities on the Mediterranean coast.

It is noteworthy that Libya - which has the largest oil reserves in Africa - were produced before the outbreak of the revolution of February 17 by 1.6 million barrels per day, only mostly to European countries such as Italy and Germany.

Fears
While prices have risen to levels of growing Western concern, expressed the U.S. bank Goldman Sachs on fears of a disruption to the largest supply of a wider unrest in the region.

However, Saudi sources confirmed that Saudi Arabia is willing and able to provide high-quality light crude to offset supply disruptions Jamahiriya, which means bridge the shortfall that drives prices to high levels.


The memorandum stated that the same price of a barrel of oil exceeded $ 120 would be a threat to global growth.

Silver Breaks $34 an ounce!!! Oil Super Spike!

Back in 2001, 10 years ago, I told people to buy silver when it was $5 an ounce. I said it would go over $20 that decade; also, in the next over $100 / oz. Debunkers said we are not going to use silver anymore. That is because we are leaving film and going to digital cameras. Then in 2008 it crash from 20 to 8 and they said "Oh see, silver was a bubble and you were wrong." I did now sell any. OK now they claim they always knew silver was going up. That said, they did not buy a single ounce.


Pre-1964 U.S. 90% silver coins, dimes, quarter, and half dollars are in the U.S., often referred to as Junk Silver. Good to hear that in Europe silver is being accepted as payment by some. It a good start. In some parts of Asia, silver is not regarded highly or as money. Gold is king there. No VAT in many countries on gold, including parts of Asia. Check around if you may need to travel light.
Gold is preferred here. I was astonished by the fine jewelry available in Turkey in December. I really prefer coins, rounds, and ingots, however. The jewelry I just sold here, I don't think I got a great price on. I think a solid chunk is easier to get a grip on. I just got a set of heavy silverware, all complete, for five euros. It is crazy. I see beautiful copper household objects here for sale, too, in my nabe, and wonder why there are no takers.

Eric Sprott : There is No More Silver! The Government Lied...

Speaking at the Casey Research Gold and Resource Summit, Eric Sprott told investors that there is no more silver left to go around, "There's $22 billion of silver available in the world, of which the ETFs already own half, and between you guys and us we probably own the other half... Which means there's nothing left."


Money or currency is something that can be exchanged for a good or service. You can do this with things like food and water, its just that some people prefer to do it with gold because of the properties that it has.

fungible

divisible

not based on debt

Doesn't go bad

Debt based currencies usually fail, thus gold is preferable to that. Gold is also preferable to water and food because it doesn't go bad and it you don't need large amounts to trade.
