I started investing in Silver in the 1970s. Lets face it. It never does what we expect it to do. Silver is the most annoying investment ever. So I switched over to mostly gold miners after 2008. I do have some silver AG CDE and a few others long term holds.
Lately I’ve been nibbling into Steel miners, X, NUE, and SXC, think infra structure, plus its a very cheap metal for decades and all the distorted values and things are trying to “right themselves”, maybe some day Silver will finally right itself. It should be $50/oz minimum.
But then again, you can’t buy Silver for $24.70 its more like $35 retail. Copper too forget about $4/lb. In coin form Copper Rounds are $2/oz, $36/lb that makes more sense.
Copper rounds $1.99/oz but out of stock.
