I have to think it will retrace down to maybe $55-ish


The Indians and Chinese are watching. They will order $12 billion worth, each, if it drops to $55. Elon will order $20 billion just to punish the con men. Those Asians and African Americans are tired of the robbery game.

Yeah if you would have asked me on Monday morning when silver closed the prior weekend at $58.2951 if I would take closing this week at $62.0194 but only after running up to $64.6699 last night but you'd have to shed $2.65 before close if I would take it I would have asked where and how fast do I sign up

I would have done that without even knowing about last night's margin requirements shenanigans. You throw that as the cherry on top was all they could do was give us a $3.7243 weekly green candle and

This ain't no 2011 or 1980 it appears they have lost control I imagine there is some pretty intense panic going on as they plan the next wave of attacks.

Asian AI baw is back at it again today



For the TL;DW crowd it's all about Samsung's solid state battery which uses a silver-carbon anode aiming for 500 Wh/kg energy density (double current EVs), enabling 600+ mile ranges, 9-min charges, and 20-year lifespans and since it is solid state and dendrite free so no more spontaneous combustion.

Silver consumption of 20-500 grams per EV runs various calculations and paints a dire forecast for silver supply.

He talks about mining stocks and brings up the two key points that everyone should know but are good to point out anyways.... Make sure your mine hasn't sold futures in a hedge and prefer jurisdictions that won't nationalize also if EV manufacturers want subsidies they have to source the silver from friendly sources so it's a double whammy to buy mining stocks in Canada, Australia, & USA. I knew the prior two points and I have been so anti-EV I didn't think about the latter.

Silver is a fantastic element. Better at lots of critical things than any other element. It's not easily replaced in certain segments of industry.

So what's the better play? Specific miners or the SILJ or SIL indexes?

Personally I would subscribe to Mining Stock Monkey's newsletter. That is a pretty low cost way to get some excellent advice. I would read it see what lands with you apply the trust but verify principle and then I would diversify across his recommendations over the index ETFs.

Also I would look into the Sprott ETFs if I were to go the ETF route they do better due diligence IMHO and they also have Copper and Uranium ETFs. I do invest in those because my focus is way over indexed to gold and silver.

I don't think it's hyperbole to say it's the most important element in the periodic table outside of the ones that you must have for survival (C, O, H, etc). It certainly is the most important element when you apply the scarcity factor that part I is not up for debate. The antimicrobial properties alone are amazing then you toss in it is the ultimate hyperconductor in an electric universe and yeah..

COMEX opened up 21 minutes ago (as I am typing) and silver is moving sideways. My favorite charts of all time are by James Anderson over at SD Bullion he separates out the NY trading hours from global trading hours to show just how severe the price manipulation is.

Loading Twitter/X Embed...
If tweet fails to load, click here.


He has also forecast that eventually the lines will intersect again because it has happened 3 or 4 times previously. The fact that non NY silver trading has been moving laterally since 2022 means I think he may be on to something. Heady times ahead gentlemen.

If you don't want physical in hand metals I understand I would look into mining stocks intelligently as I stated in my prior post. I would look into Monetary Metals from Keith Weiner where you can shoot him money they convert it into the metal of your choice then you lock in 1 year leases where they pay interest in the underlying metal. For those of us with diamond hands who want to get utility from our metals the option is Battle Bank from Rick Rule where you can secure loans against your metals and unlike the corrupt rigged system you don't need $10m in metals to do so.

We are moving into a hard asset world most people don't see it but have real eyes and diamond hands and get at it. Generational wealth lies ahead if you do.

From JM Bullion this morning:

As of December 15, 2025 at 07:39 AM ET, the live Silver spot price for 1 ounce of Silver in U.S. dollars (USD) is $64.16


Not as much as I was expecting, but I'll take it, in theory.

The silver margin in Shanghai was reportedly hiked to a historical high of 26% for speculative positions, with the daily price limit raised to 15%, effective after the December 12 close. Not sure how you expected it to much better than it did as up 3% during Shanghai hours with that level of headwind is nothing short of impressive

They keep trying to break the back of the bull but instead the bull just gets more annoyed

To the riggers:

$65 is the final gamma wall going to be a massive war this week don't be surprised if we move laterally and have some big pullbacks.

I thought that some of the yuge customers were going to start the bidding war.

The reason i say I will take it, in theory, is because I am not actually selling until it hits FU money.

Closing above $64 which is the highest nominal day close is pretty good. Just wiped out all of Friday's losses.

This is eye popping price action.

Tuesday will be interesting for sure.

Down 2% in Shanghai trading so far.... 65 is the battle in fact I think it will be all out war to keep it under 65 to close out 2025. If we do break 65 this week then the last two weeks may be wild. Either way as long as we close out 2025 in the 61+ range this year was a smashing success.

Gold leads then silver follows and will way outperform gold once it starts.

Small pullback today -0.3405 (-0.53%)

I actually want to stay under $65 for the year so that when 2026 rolls around my mom finally asked me to to manage a chunk of her portfolio so I can take advantage of the resource based stocks. She spent the better part of the last 3.75 years ignoring me but called me last night and said I was right and her broker even acknowledged my calls would have over doubled her returns this year

So ideal state for me is her to roll into 1/1/2026 then we vacate all the blackrock B$ and go hard at the mining sector so I would appreciate it if we move laterally the next 2 weeks.

I said I was through stacking. I wanted to be through stacking.
My guy called me with an old 100 oz Engelhard Silver Bar. I gave in this afternoon.

You are already up man Shanghai is going nuts. Silver just tore through $65 like it was balsa wood.
