It's well known and openly admitted and lawsuits have been won about manipulation in the precious metals markets.
The low side of the Gold to Silver ratio is about 100 to 1
The high side in history was 10 to 1
So if Gold inches up to $2500 oz... that puts Silver at $250
currently $27 - that might sound mad - until you think into the performance in many other assets, Tesla, Cryptos etc.
JPM, Barclays and all the spooks have gone out of their way to crush silver prices for decades - this is one way we can beat them.
Silver futures are a small market place - we can easily squeeze them out there.....
The Hunt Brothers did it in the 70s but they didn't have the viral power we have.... to get the masses behind them.
Well that is good for you but I still believe that buyers should definitely beware on eBay and still do not think it is the best advice for people who are totally inexperienced with precious metals to run their first couple transactions through eBay.
Maybe either with the guidance of someone more experienced, or after you have learned a lot more about what exactly you are buying & the industry as a whole...
As always; buyer beware and YMMV.
