We see the data that it spikes every recession, and reverts after every one. Currently it has spiked. I can't tell you why it's like this, there are an infinite explanations you can come up with, some more likely than others. What I can tell you is we're following the historical trend to a tee, and if you're going to bet against it you better have a strong excuse. Again, I don't know why the Gold Silver ratio behaves like it does, but we do know it behaves this way.

I'm making thousands using this ratio.

It's boils down to one question. What's different about our current precious metals bull market that's different to our previous ones? What's different now that wasn't so 9 years ago, and throughout all history? If you can't answer that, you're letting your emotions drive your investing, and you're picking teams instead of using your head.

There will be a point where both silver and gold become extremely overvalued beyond their base purchasing power as investors pile into the metals. Just like every other asset that becomes popular to the masses, they'll overshoot their value as we get into Ponzi style buying. And the argument for silver overshooting it's fair value is very strong, as it's market cap is extremely small, and as well most of the public are not able to afford any quantities of Gold, hence going for the next best thing. When people think of the next best thing to gold, it's silver. In this likely scenario then, silver's percentage gain will be higher than gold's. Looking back at history, this has always been true in precious metals bull markets.

Beyond that, just being a precious metal in an inflationary period makes it's value itself grow, irrespective of the added inflationary nominal value.

As for Gold Silver ratio stuff, I see no reason it won't revert to the mean as it always has. If there is an argument, it has to be true now that wasn't in 2011. As it stands, Gold's price vs Silver has always peaked during the recessions, like it has in the GFC and Dotcom, and afterwards dropped downwards as silver's price rockets upwards. And in our current recession, what do you know, Gold's price to silver has shot up at record highs. If there is any good argument why we won't follow the historical trend, I'm all ears.

My money is agnostic be it for boomer rocks or zoomer coins. I don't care and have no attachments. But my money is betting on the Gold Silver Ratio reverting.

It'd be like if we kept cycling from riding horses to driving cars through 2000 years, and we've recently been driving cars for 20 years, an extended uptrend in the cycle. Could it be that we're just not going to ride horses anymore? Maybe, but unless there's a direct causal relationship I'm betting against it. I'm betting on horses.

I try not to have any emotional attachments to my investments, I love gold and silver but in the end I'm in it for the wealth and the things I can get with the wealth.

Super complicated question. Gold always moves first, and has made it's first move while silver is beginning it's own first move towards 20. But you have to also believe that silver tracks gold, and if you do believe that then you'd also believe that silver moves harder than gold and so silver is more of a speculative metal. As well silver has industrial demand, and relatedly tends to make its; big move after recessions, not at the beginning or during like we are now. Pic related is silver ounces to buy one gold ounce, highlighted are recessions; it shows how cheap silver really is right now, as compared to gold. Gold itself is more of a store of value and safer play, but on it's own should still make a lot of gains nominally. If you're going to invest in the sector you have a lot of research to do

You couldn't write a better story.

Count on it. We all make investment mistakes when dipping our toes in a sector, yours came at a very cheap cost. Pic related.

It's FUD, and really bad FUD. Just look into the mining industry and you'll see how hard and expensive it is to find and pull gold out of the Earth, even in places like Canada and US. Miners are so cheap right now because they're known to the common investors as destroyers of capital. Check this out. http://www.goldchartsrus.com/chartstemp/free/fchart-BGMI.php

Mining In space? In your dreams. It's so stupid I almost want to call institutional FUD on it.

Crypto tracks the stock market and that's the dumbest shit ever. It's completely against why I want to be in crypto at all.

Check out the coin clipping AKA money debasing. A story as old as time.

Pictured: Reminder that you better be buying silver right the fuck now. At MINIMUM we should be seeing GSR 50 and a silver price of at LEAST $65 within the next 2 years. If you don't trust the GSR to revert to the mean and follow it's trend throughout history you better have a strong thesis

Glad there are others out there. I had dreams of just living the normal life and investing in index funds on the broader market, then one day rolling my wins into a property to live out my days in. But now with the insane asset bubbles the central banks have created, and the insane amounts of money being printed, doing it the old way just doesn't cut it anymore. I have no clue whether or not the market will go up or down, but either way the central bankers will print. Gold and Silver win under these conditions however you spin it.

Gold silver ratio has always reverted after it's highs, and has always reached it's highs during the recession, but declines massively after during reflation when silver overtakes gold in terms of percentage increase. Our current situation absolutely follows historical precedent, with GSR reaching ATH's during what's essentially the Greater Depression, so unless you have evidence or an argument as to why "this time it's different", (i.e. famous last words of every bad investor) I'm betting on the pattern and the data and I implore everybody to have exposure to both gold and silver.

>Gold is king; Silver is Poor man's gold etc...
These sayings are themselves narrative driving and not completely thought out. Yea gold is king, and silver is poor man's gold, but that's why silver is such a great buy. EVERYBODY is poor. It's so obvious. When the average Joe who likely has less than 500$ saved up goes to the teller to buy Gold, he can't get any. This stuff is $2000 an ounce. The average American has no rainy day fund, much less a PM fund. So if they can't get Gold, the next best thing will always be Silver.

Silver's market Cap is TINY, and the volume of people pouring in when PMs get popular explodes the price, and will explode the price like it has in the past. As well silver has more historical precedent being used as a monetary metal than Gold too, because it is so much cheaper per ounce.
