Central NE | not 100, but almost there. Nothing to celebrate as silver hasn't gained any weight. Sad day for the federal reserve notes. When it was created on christmas eve with most of the senators gone, the mission statement of the federal reserve was said to be "to prevent inflation and maintain the strength of the dollar" of which it has failed spectacularly, but that has been wiped from history and replaced with a new narrative.
With an ounce of gold still being an ounce, but needing almost 5,000 fed debt coupons to exchange for it, at a 16 to one ratio, it might take 312 fed debt coupons to buy silver but the sky basement is the limit if the currency continues on its path. 40:1 would put silver exchange rate at $125 which is very realistic and I think would be a time to pivot 50% into other hard assets if desired. pendulums go both ways and could far exceed targets.
One phenomenon from the book "when money dies" (available in pdf online) is how stock market returns look incredible until they are nearly as worthless as investing with bernie madoff.
