Ok, so I get the gold:silver ratio but what is the silver:XAU ratio? I have a feeling this should be obvious but I can't figure it out? Thanks in advance :oops:

A friend from another board often says

“There are no stupid questions.
There are however a lot of inquisitive idiots in the world.”

Not saying that applies to this question. I just like that quote.

A more eloquent way of saying: "There are no stupid questions, just stupid people who ask questions"

There are no stupid questions, except for the ones you are too chicken to ask.

Thanks, Camero, for telling us what the gold:XAU ratio means. I always thought it was a ratio of gold to a special Chinese commodity: XAU! :mrgreen:

I always liked the line, "There are no stupid questions...only stupid people." I think it was in a movie, but it always makes me laugh. I'm not directing that at you merchoarder. :)
