RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:160,000 shares Well you are definitely full of misinformation but yes silver to the moon is nothing new and the longer it takes the more grateful I am as I love buying stuff for way less than its worth and have never been dumb enough to guess a future price or date when it does go to the moon but it definitely will in my lifetime. billion ounces a year supply is correct but demand is higher than that per year and government stock piles are depleted and have been for quite some time now. The deficits are usually covered with recycling but that is minimal now that we have digital cameras. India imported 300 million ounces in 2022 and if that continues it is absolutely unsustainable and will cause a huge deficit. I'm fully aware that most silver mined is a byproduct and the reason for that is primarily silver miners are taking a loss at current prices and will not produce much till that changes. The hunt Brothers story is total bs. Why did gold go up 1000% (thats a rough off top of head estimate. I forget but it sky rocketed)without the hunt Brothers. It was a lame excuse to explain that price action away so people would not lose faith in the king dollar. Also I never claimed silver was a good investment back in 1918. I said its the investment of the century right now at the present moment. 20 years ago was even better which is when I started. It's worth 5x as much now with no 3rd party liability risk causing me to sleep great and make money in my sleep. I think a 500% return in 20 years on a raw commodity is great! If the banks don't manipulate silver why are they always paying millions in fines for spoofing the market? Sounds like you've been fully indoctrinated by TPTB and their propaganda machine. If I had to guess you're probably on your 6th booster and still wearing a mask? Lmfao. Go do your homework and then come back pal btw the hunt Brothers got absolutely screwed over by the comex which decided to completely change the rules as they continue to do so to this day whenever things don't work in their favor. From the sounds of it you have a lot to learn about the precious metals market.
