Time is of the essence because....as mentioned by Antrobus and others...once they get all environmental permits squared away and everything operational with the mine.. well, the potential looks very good!<br /><br />I believe that the current just over $1 share price is a steal. HTH!<br /><br />Eric,<br />I don't know anything about your Bralorne pick but I did want to say that this stock is for you what the one I referenced above (ERRCF) is to me! ...Which I guess is to say it's a gamble. But..eh.. you gotta go out on a limb sometimes and hope for a winner with a long shot! You're doing very well with your more solid picks (ie: GPR, SLW, etc.) ...so, don't worry if you choose one that may or may not be a winner! ....I'm going to go check Bralorne out now. :]Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07800567034093544029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034901630224544639.post-40103064597616136492011-02-17T21:33:19.478-05:002011-02-17T21:33:19.478-05:00Thanks you guys...

But I feel like a douche for not "getting it" about silver at the same time or I woulda bought as much as I could have then.<br /><br />I appreciate the replies on my question, thanks to all. Strategically, I'm torn between cashing out now to buy silver or letting it ride a while longer to see if it hits 1600 and then cashing it in. <br /><br />How about I set a time for sometime in May and stick to it? I'll give it 3 more months and then either cash it in or buy it for delivery.<br /><br />And speaking of GVille Coins...is it odd that in 1 weeks time then went from 2.75 to 2.90, and now DOWN to 2.80 over spot on silver eagles?<br /><br />I think it's wierd they dropped it down 10 cents while price was rising and supplies dwindling. Maybe they caught some flack for it???<br /><br />I'm thinking after today they're gonna jump it up to 3 Bernankies over spot...just a guess.<br /><br />If anyone wants me to pick them up anything just lemme know...I'm only 5 miles down the road from them! :)<br /><br />The Turd Rules!Save_America1sthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10725402173164398119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034901630224544639.post-1055340183090016802011-02-17T21:20:28.764-05:002011-02-17T21:20:28.764-05:00Intriguing, Mr. Ferguson!Intriguing, Mr. Ferguson!John Bigbootehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06360968874086189573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034901630224544639.post-63386321205205098882011-02-17T21:16:22.052-05:002011-02-17T21:16:22.052-05:00Big-boo-tay: Yes, I've been on CNBC a few time...Big-boo-tay: Yes, I've been on CNBC a few times.

The one thing they have going for them is that the silver market is very small (compared to gold) and miniscule (compared to other asset classes). If JPM is the big Comex silver short then any fiat losses will be reimbursed quietly by Bernanke. And they will choose to take as long as they like to deliver any silver they need to deliver. No doubt they've got some contingent off-take agreements with miners somewhere. If they take 1 year to deliver who it going to prosecute them? Sure, it will damage the Comex's credibility, but it will only be a once-off event because position limits (with exemptions for JPM, etc) will quickly be imposed, thus stopping WB from trying her tricks again. <br /><br />Please note these are just my speculations. I am NOT a Comex or derivative specialist. <br /><br />p.s. word verification: comenced !

However, I think even THEY are backed into a corner.<br /><br />Any rule change that causes one of the following will cause the entire House of Cards to fall:<br /><br />1) A market-based acknowledgement that COMEX no longer provides legitimate price discovery for silver (like what is already happening with WTI in the oil market),<br /><br />2) A rapid rise in interest rates, <br /><br />3) An informal declaration that gold and silver are monetary assets (i.e. PM confiscation or massive trading restrictions), or<br /><br />4) A derivatives implosion.<br /><br />Bernanke/Dimon/Blythe have PLENTY of WMD's at their disposal.
