why would anyone ban shorts?

>>17900285
Ask Italy

>>17900285
spain literally just did it

Reminder that we are likely entering a deflationary spiral and so cash will be king

>>17900186
post pic of that in your asshole

>>17900186
Why would you buy silver instead of gold?

>>17900434
>>17900441
full retard commies qe + scarcity of essential goods + ban shorts = hyperinflation

>>17900285
Because the money printer must go BRRRR

>>17900554
Yeah maybe. I'm gonna move to Spain tho.

>>17900546
120/1 ratio when it should be closer to 20/1
Trading it to gold in a few years will make you a tidy profit

>>17900558
yeah but the purpose of qe would be to stimulate the economy not to crush the currency

>>17900697
QE is retarded and only buys the big cartels time to exit the market
Everyone else gets fucked by manipulated prices and worthless fiat

>>17900697
Inflationary currency doesn't even matter desu. It only hurts big time hodlers. The average person actually benefits from inflationary policy because it increases the velocity of currency and market activity whilst making your country more affordable to invest in and therefore more likely you'll get hired. Everyone gets mad at China for overinflating their currency for just this reason it gives the Chinese an unfair advantage in labor and manufacturing.

>>17900285
ask the gooks

>>17900722
Not true hardly anyone gets fucked by inflationary currency.

>>17900186
So.... no one has an opinion either way about this theory?

>>17900840
the simplest explanation is the short doesn't exist. It's just propaganda to sell rocks.

>>17900285
>4 people didn't get this joke

>>17900546
Silver is very underpriced, gold is not that much.

>>17900874
>very underpriced

Why? Muh ratio? Muh price fixing conspiracy?

>>17900840
It's pretty hard to tell anon. The silver market is big and there are a lot of big time players. You would have to do your own research. I mean I will say that I expect a healthy price jump due to this demand and the premiums over spot price anons experienced. My town is sold out even at stores so there's that too. However, to the degree that I can say with any certainty that a paradigm shift will happen and it will cause a moon event I just can't say. I'm not educated enough and if I were you I would be wary of people promising such things on 4channel. You're going to have to put your big boy glasses on and go deep down the rabbit hole.

>normies will pump my bags
That's not how crypto works and that goes a hundred times more with shit like corn, gravel, and silver. High premiums despite prices dropping? Price drops because demand drops. Silver is useful of course, but not as a precious metal. It's just like plastic. I sold my smol stack and actually profited thanks to the ridiculous premiums. I like it for the doomsday prepper memes but idk. Either I'll buy more when price goes back up and premiums are reasonable or buy something else.
About the sneaky jews preventing moon, when you are trying to play with silver the only kind that matters is paper silver. No amount of fomo can beat the stranglehold kikes have there.

>Muh price fixing conspiracy?
You know people from JPM precious metals desk have been arrested for manipulating the PM market, right?
Fucking normalfag tourists, fuck off or at least lurk before posting your retardation

>>17900186
existing shorts will still stand, a ban on shorts only disallow new shorts.

>>17901059
ah, as usual, there is no winning against the kikes. Thank you for your direct and on topic response.

>>17900777

Haha yeah, it's not like houses still cost almost the same in terms of purchasing power but wages haven't kept up huh

>>17900186
>when that whole bar is only worth a little over 1 oz of gold

>>17901834
And this is why poorfags invest in silver, they feel like it's better value just because they get more weight. Y'all should fill your basement with iron bars next.

In both the subprime crisis and the euro-area crisis, regulators imposed bans on short sales, aimed mainly at preventing stock price turbulence from destabilizing financial institutions. Contrary to the regulators’ intentions, financial institutions whose stocks were banned experienced greater increases in the probability of default and volatility than unbanned ones, and these increases were larger for more vulnerable financial institutions. To take into account the endogeneity of short sales bans, we match banned financial institutions with unbanned ones of similar size and riskiness, and instrument the 2011 ban decisions with regulators’ propensity to impose a ban in the 2008 crisis.

>fill your basement with iron
I might do that Iron and steel are about 1000x more useful than gold and silver.
But I like Treasure and I want a big chest of booty.

Ask you mom

>>17902091
Fill it with water and air. Can't live without those.

>>17900186
why would anyone short silver ?

>>17900285
Because a short involves selling someone else's shit.

Under certain circumstances that can become very problematic, like say a pandemic situation whereby everyone should get the opportunity to sell their own shit.
