Ted Butler on Silver Shortages

Silver was around $ 4.02 an Oz in 2000, now it's nearly $28, now that's investment! I'm buying for the longterm, my silver is for keeps unless there's a massive price explosion. Gold for February delivery was tanking $16.20 to $1,328.20 an ounce at the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. The gold price Tuesday has traded has high as $1,338 and as low as $1,321.90. The spot gold price was holding up better supported by physical buying down only $5.30, according to Kitco's gold index



Ted Butler : ...No one knows for sure. It comes down to how much additional long liquidation the big shorts can engineer. We are still above all the critical moving averages, so there does exist the possibility we could go lower to get the technical funds completely flushed out. For sure, if we do go lower, it will be because JPMorgan and the other COMEX crooks are successful in tricking the technical funds into forced selling and not for any other reason. But there has been significant liquidation already, so it is just as possible it could be done or nearly so. Certainly there is nothing in the real world of silver that would account for further selling.
