If in one day... Feb 29th paper trades amounting to half of the world annual production that trade within a half hour time period with no chance of that amount of physical being on hand in all the warehouses.....and no one calls foul!

Then it begs the question....Do people who hold the physical metal ever have a chance for the "real price" of silver appear? If, the answer you think is yes. Then please explain...

"Ever" is a long time.

"Soon"? Isn't that what most of us a betting?
