And the premium is 10.50% and was only 10.25% originally so essentially no extra premium.

I pay more attention to the bid rather than the ask price, but premiums on fractional Au seem to have dropped to reasonable levels while Ag is still elevated. Whether this means a drop in physical Ag is headed this way, or an increase in Au is forthcoming is a matter of opinion.

In the last 6 months or so the Gold/Silver ratio has moved from the low 50s to around 62.

Any speculation on why?

As you probably know, Franklin Sanders --> http://silver-and-gold-prices.goldprice.org/ -- often discusses the gold/silver ratio, usually within the context of swapping one for the other when the ratio reaches a certain level.

My slide rule is cracked though, so I can't offer a good rationale for the change.

Ask JPMorgan. They can paint any picture they want. There is no rhyme nor reason to the ratio and agonizing over its intent is a waste of time when technical analysis is made worthless by manipulative sorties. The only value it has is helping determine if you should swap the ratio. Since silver appears easier to suppress than gold, you can probably expect the ratio to worsen.

Gold is the big kid on the block. When metals fall as we have seen lately silver falls harder, and the GSR moves in favor of gold. When metals rise in price silver jumps farther, and the GSR moves in favor of silver. Silver has more upside if you are a bull. Essentially a bet that gold will outperform silver is a bet that metals will fall so gold is good for protection, and I do love the gold fundamentals but I prefer the risk/reward silver offers.

I agree.

I still am going to get an order of these to finally have a good number of smaller gold :)

I've really come to enjoy the 1/10th ounce AGE! A nice way to keep gold in small amounts! :thumbup:

You gotta buy 100 of them from Tulving - his minimum. That would cost $15,374 at todays closing price ($153.74 each). Other AGEs are 20 TOZ minimum.

I'd be interested in 10 if the price is right.
