Am I missing something?

Just looking for some insight on why silver is down in recent weeks. Surely it can't just be the work of the big boys manipulating it? Demand is up, price is down...what am I missing?

Unlimited digital dollars can swing the paper price of anything anywhere. Physical demand is up a lot more now!

You are missing nothing. I intend to BTFD.

I am not missing the higher premiums on physical as the price falls.

TPTB are shorting paper and buying physical. Double profits. They get what they want until the ponzi falls apart. At that point we will bail them out. But at least our physical will be recognized at its value in the long run.

Nice. I'm also a gun dealer on the side and have done a little wheeling and dealing.
