The world is returning to gold and silver as money and now silvers industrial demand is competing with its monetary demand which means that silver should be valued at higher than it's long term historic average of roughly 1/15th of the price of gold . Silver has a lot of catching up to do.

@ultrayie @WilliamWX100 Less stress until the company you bought the contract from goes bankrupt. Then you lose your investment.

@TJPander @RbtGil @bennyjohnson Note the judicious use of the word apparently.

@wrldhstr @C_Barraud ….or a reflection of the fact that USTs are becoming worth less (soon to be worthless?) as yields march higher.

[Tomathkdotcom @589985]

@C_Barraud @Kathleen_Tyson_ This actually happened nearly a year ago and was widely reported at that time. ECB is slow.

@GoldForecast Er….in March China imported the largest amount of silver ever. By a margin over over 100% the previous monthly record.

And China‘s export controls make it much more difficult for silver to leave.

China is experiencing historic demand for silver:

Chinese silver imports rose +78% MoM, to a record ~836 tonnes in March.

This is +173% above the 10-year seasonal average for March.

Year-to-date, silver imports are up to ~1,626 tonnes, the highest on record.

Surging demand was driven by retail investors purchasing small silver bars as a lower-cost alternative to gold, and solar manufacturers front-loading production ahead of the removal of export tax rebates on April 1st.

The global solar industry consumes ~20% of total annual silver supply, with the majority of activity concentrated in China.

China's demand for silver is exploding.

@mhp_guy Put it in your checking account?

Probably some of the worst investment advice ever.

@JebraFaushay Did people pay to see this?

[Tomathkdotcom @589985]

@DharmaDooo @sustainablock @ValerieAnne1970 That's why I asked for the 'settled' science not the science.

There is no settled science on these issues.

There is a large amount of disagreement amongst scientists and the assumptions behind every approach can vary legitimately.

@TheDailyGold Gold closed 2025 at 4340 ish
Gold is now 4528

Silver closed 2025 at 75 ish
Silver is now 75 ish

Sure we've had some movement, but calling silver crushed?

Silver has only ever in history been above current price levels for roughly 30 trading days.

@hissgoescobra @JohnCleese Russia is a big country

Tucker is talking about Moscow.

It may be your only explanation but may not be the right explanation.

You are asking why this happens in the original post, then you are answering your own question saying it’s to do with linking your card.

If you know the answer, why post.

If you don’t know the answer, be open to other ideas - that’s surely why you posted this in the first place

[Tomathkdotcom @589985]

@sustainablock @ValerieAnne1970 Indisputable?
Please share the settled science behind this. 🙏🙏🙏

Really depends what you mean by survive.

Coconuts and bananas provide enough nutrition to live on for extended periods of time.

And they are available all over Thailand for very little money or even for free.

Recent tax changes mean that vacant land plots must have productive plants growing and coconuts and bananas need very little attention to cultivate and are often not harvested as they are being grown for tax reasons rather than commercially.

[Tomathkdotcom @589985]

@MicMarWin @DirkZett @hispanicnomad Start with coconuts and bananas.

Not making a comment on the crime but the sentencing.

It seems that sentencing relating a to events like this, where high media interest lies, does not follow established sentencing.

The higher the level of media interest in the case, the further the departure from the norm of sentencing.

When aggravated rape gets a just community service this case adds by showing the other end of the spectrum.

@RbtGil @bennyjohnson Ad🐸Nd George Floyd was apparently killed because of someone kneeling on his neck.

Oh the irony.

@newstart_2024 Isn’t that how you would eat if you were in his position? Many tasty bites. Either that or get fat.

[Tomathkdotcom @589985]

@ehelpmann I think I have some. Will check the case tomorrow.
