I just read something on Gold-Eagle.com, or somewhere. Anyway, silver is called, "the poor man's gold." As fiat currencies devalue/hyperinflate and collapse, the demand for "real money" is going to really take off. That means silver will be in tremendous demand, even compared to gold.

Aside from "poor man's gold", silver is much more subject to market manipulation, in that supply is more difficult to expand. I have no doubt it will end the year with a firm floor above $20. Between Iran/Israel, China/Taiwn, and the opening of the Iranian Euro based oil bourse, that level may be reached before Easter.

I stayed out of silver for a long time, the Hunt debacle kept it depressed against gold in the public perception, but I got in the Hunt market at $3.70 and bailed out at 10 to 1. If I'm really lucky, time for another ride.

I agree totally.
Btw, as I've done with silver in other times when it was spiraling upward, I'd like to set a specific goal for silver to reach, then sell at that point and lock in a profit. The problem is, I think that silver will continue this upward spiral for the next year and one-half, perhaps two years. Anyway, for now there is no sense in wondering about setting a goal yet.
