RE:K.N. is not alone........Yes exactly. I remember back then some of these nitwits were out there screaming that gold's true value was $50,000 and it was just a matter of time before its there. And one high profile delusional ( not Keith) was certain silver would go to $500. Why on earth would silver go to $500. Half of it is used In industrial applications and contrary to Mr Neumyer's assertions, there ARE substitutes that are almost as good as silver. If investor hysteria ever pushed silver to 500, it will be very short lived because industry will drop it like a hot potato. And suddenly there will be a glut of silver and resulting plunge in the price. Since 2012, the production of silver has jumped from 500 million oz per year to 800 million. This will add to the potential capitulation of the price. And gold??? Asians, Russians etc are buying now at 1900 because it is still a reasonable price...high but manageable. Who's going to be buying of the price goes to $15000?. There will be a lot of selling, not buying...by those who are smart enough to lock in 750% gains while they can
