Silver in USD 2 Year – (Bloomberg)

Some astute store of wealth buyers continue to buy (gold and especially silver bullion) on the dip but physical demand remains subdued in western markets as both speculators and some investors seek clarity regarding price direction.

Much of the reporting on silver continues to focus on silver as an investment and on silver’s volatility. It fails to acknowledge silver as a store of value and as financial insurance against monetary and economic collapse.

This is the primary motivation of many silver buyers today and to ignore it is unfortunate and can lead to defective analysis.

Silver is not an investment rather it is a store of value and a form of financial insurance. It is a long term buy - until it has to be sold– or a permanent holding.

Silver in USD 1971 – 2012 (Bloomberg Inflation Adjusted Index)

Silver remains undervalued from a long term historical inflation adjusted perspective (see chart).

Our long held belief that silver could reach the real high, inflation adjusted, of $130/oz from 1980 remains.

Immediate support is at $31/oz and below that at $27/oz and store of value buyers should continue to accumulate on the dip.

However price forecasts by all should always be taken with a pinch of salt and silver’s value is as financial insurance and a store of wealth that cannot be debased and cannot go bankrupt.
