A symptom of inflation is too much money chasing after too few goods. But investors want to trade the cause not the symptom. That means understanding that when inflation is up, the dollar is weak. And a weak dollar is excellent for precious metals, and particularly gold and silver.
In 2024, gold was up 39% and silver was up 37%. That outpaced the S&P 500 and even the NASDAQ index, which is the home of the most popular technology stocks. But as impressive as those returns were, there's an anomaly that investors need to understand. During a bull market in precious metals, silver typically outpaces gold and not by just a little.
And if history is any guide, silver is likely to have much further to run. In 2011, the last real bull market for metals, the gold to silver ratio came in at about 30%. At that time, it meant the spot price of gold was $1,500 and the spot price of silver was $50. For that ratio to be in place today, silver would have to be near $100 as gold approaches $3,000.
That illustrates the opportunity available today. In this special presentation, we analyze seven silver stocks that are likely to sizzle as demand increases.
