Catching up to the inflation over the past 4 years. Gold hasn't kept pace with the other areas of inflation (from what I've heard) and at $2150 still hasn't kept up with the rate of inflation throughout the world (despite many conservatives grumbling, Biden actually has managed to keep US inflation as one of the lowest in the world over the past 3 years, the rest of the world has gone bonkers in regards to inflation in some places, reaching over 15 to 20%/year in some areas).

NeuroTypical Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 I started paying attention to gold and silver prices in 2010, to see if I could find a way to spot trends and make billions. I'm not a billionaire yet (I'm barely a thousandaire), but here's my chart I made and look at. It tracks the price of 1 oz of gold in coin form, and the price of 100 silver eagles: Fun fact: The Gold Standard got adopted basically because of an accident caused by Issac Newton: Gold standard - Wikipedia Quote Great Britain accidentally adopted a de facto gold standard in 1717 when Sir Isaac Newton, then-master of the Royal Mint, set the exchange rate of silver to gold too low, thus causing silver coins to go out of circulation. As Great Britain became the world's leading financial and commercial power in the 19th century, other states increasingly adopted Britain's monetary system.

Still_Small_Voice Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 Silver markets are being manipulated presently. Silver should be up to at least $34 per ounce, in my opinion. But, as of today, silver is close to $25.39 per ounce. All these fraud traders are selling their fake, paper silver certificates that are backed by nothing but lies of what silver they have in their vaults or safes. In 2021 J.P. Morgan paid $920,000,000 to settle an investigation into their manipulating the silver markets. They also paid an additional $15,700,000 lawsuit brought by other investors who said the manipulation had caused them significant financial losses. They are very likely still doing it today to the silver markets along with others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
