When is it you stop buying ?

[SilverStacker]

The train has left the station and nothing will be able to put the brakes onto silver now. Its approaching $71 and every morning I wake up I'm almost afraid to check. Yes the dollar is weak but its still the main purchaser of food and material. At least for the foreseeable future. Will silver become the next unobtanium ? With spot over $70 oz what will that metal cost at your LCS today ? I just may pull cash out and check. I have the money but OMG the cheapest online ASE's are $74.57 at https://findbullionprices.com/compare-bullion-prices.php

Even rounds are over $71. This is like an episode of The Lightweight Zone because I just dont see a crash coming and even a dip is unlikely. Where does it all end ? When will come a time we poor Yankee serfs have to put an end to the run , or at least get put on the side lines as the great game continues without us ? Even a GSR of 64 has slowed because everyone and her married brother are still running to gold as well.

Madness. Its become sheer madness and is a totally different animal then 1980 or 2011 was. It has no historical equivalent ; We have entered a dimension of both time and space. We have entered The Twilight Zone.

I'll be honest. $40 an ounce was my cut off point. I've watched the white dog crash too many times to ever really turn my back on it. To start buying while it is over $70 would decimate my dollar cost averaging.

I'll stop when I see industrial demand wane and exchange vault stocks replenishing.

This is the Sit on Your Damn Hands moment in time. I don't plan on buying much now.

It's also the start of Crunch Time in our individual budgets.

I don't have much to buy with, now. It saves me the choice - I don't THINK PM prices will crash, but somehow, the silver run-up so quickly seems a bit unnatural. It's probably whales buying up - perhaps the Samsung battery-announcement has led to front-running and stockpiling. What happens if that doesn't come to be, for a variety of reasons, including cost when used in consumer goods, WEF/Globalist restrictions on personal travel, etc, etc.? Is this the Hunt Brothers all over again?

Gold. Little industrial applications (yes, there are uses, but more valuable as a store-of-value). So it runs up to 10x what it was 20 years ago? Prices, also, have run up to nearly 10x what they were back then. Homes. Cars. Beef. Medical insurance. You name it.

So, the "profit" is only holding our own position. Good - that's what it's supposed to do. But what of those of us who have only gotten a 2x increase in income - or who have retired, with a nominal CUT in income?

Central banks, and Asian governments, don't care what is the price. Globalists probably do - can't be sure how they think, or try to think. Suppose the paper market DOES NOT immediately come apart, and they find new ways, with restrictions on metal delivery, to again spike up the paper market? OR, just tax the living snot out of gold sales? OR EVEN, just by gubbermint decree, impose a set price, say, $100/ounce? What would happen THEN?

Of course the gold market would lock up. But the gubbermint would have closed an exit ramp to their corrupt forever-debt system, as well.

So, I have no idea. Doesn't matter to me, as I don't have to make a choice right now.

Well we are in a different boat. I've been saying for awhile I'm not buying, or selling. But I was done buying several years back. It just seems crazy to be buying for quadruple what my average is on AG. Even triple or double seems crazy. I'll never forget how many of my friends and family thought we were nuts for pulling $$ out of my 401K to buy $12 silver and $1500 gold. I'm sure there are many here who bought it even cheaper.

On the other hand for those who are new/newer to stacking PM's,..... I'd say, it's not to late. Get it while you can.

Kinda crazy that a pre-65 dime is now worth over $5.......... ..... And a pre-65 half dollar is worth over $25......

KingKong Slop™ still thinks it's going much higher.

But until you use up all of your excess currency. Currency has it's place in our society for now so it is prudent to keep some on hand. It's not like we have rampant inflation and your losing 10% a week or anything close to that. So there is no desperation to get rid of currency right now.
The metals have really decoupled from everything. It's no longer about preserving purchasing power, it's now an asset that is in a bull market. No different than a tech stock trading at crazy multiples. IMO this is like BTC entering bubble territory. No reason for it other than so many are piling in. Prices will go higher than any of us can imagine but they will eventually top and eventually we will also see the bear market.

If you're not comfortable buying at these higher prices than the mining stocks are the next place to go. They have moved somewhat but they are just getting started. Now a bad place to park some excess currency as well.

I bought today. With spot at $71.40 I bought two Pandas for $73 each as Xmas gifts for my little niece and nephew.I also bought some Asahi's for $72 each cause I like the design. The Panda has been the one coin I wont own because I despise the CCP but the little kids will get a kick out of the Pandas on them, 1yo and 5yo, and since I'm giving them away I dont technically own them. They are nice coins tho.

The Asahi's tho are for me. I think I'll have to take a breather for awhile and see which way the wind blows "Ive said that 10 times in the last few weeks and still bought". My gut tells me silver is on a run and it ain't going back. At least not much and not often. Its just been to long and to sustained a rise with to large a gap between production and demand.
