Precious Metal SILVER the next big BOOM

So how much silver was mined? Well, the commoditynewscenter.com notes that "According to the US Geological Survey, about 672m ounces of silver was mined in 2008. And with an average silver price of $14.94 per ounce, if all mined silver was sold at spot, the entire supply chain would generate revenues of only about $10 billion.

Addison Wiggin of Agora Financial's 5 Minute Forecast does not actually come out and say, "It's weird!" or that I am, for once, making sense or how he can't understand why everyone hates me, but he does say that "there are only 22 pure silver mines around the world. For 15 years straight, they've fallen short of meeting total silver demand." Wow!

In fact, "in the last two years alone, they were off by nearly 76 million ounces"!

And since this is after decades of dis-hoarding of strategic stockpiles, the result is that "Today, most of the US silver stockpile is gone," and whereas "the world once had about 2.2 billion ounces of silver above ground," now there are "only about 300 million ounces. In other words, total world silver supply has plummeted by over 86% just in the last few years ... while silver demand has gone UP!"
I know you won't listen to me, since you never have, and all I ever hear is how you are sick of hearing me tell you to buy silver and gold, for one reason, protection against the inexorable predations of a ravenous, sick government, and secondly to make money with silver since the supply/demand imbalance is (as we professional economists term it) So Preposterously Out Of Whack (SPOOW), and you are always asking, "If you're so smart, how come you are just a lonely, pathetic little man who locks himself in the closet under the stairs because he is so scared of everything?"
