They show the big gains, but ignore the big losses.
Adjusted for inflation, silver is about half what it was at the 1980 peak, and about what it was at the 2011 peak.
This hype has a huckster flavor to it.
Buying silver for long term investment is like saying I wish I had bought that 64 Corvette that is now worth $45K.
IF you had put that money into Apple or the S&P 500 Index fund it would be would 10X more.
FYI, i have some Silver and Gold. Not enough to be worth more than 20K even today.
I wish I had bought NVIDIA. A guy I know bought it about seven years ago. His shares are now worth over $1 Million.
