20181104-Miles Franklin-The Gold for Silver Swap

Miles Franklin （The Gold for Silver Swap, The Opportunity of a Generation）:

With the current gold to silver ratio at 85:1, Miles Franklin founder Andy Schectman calls the ability to swap gold for silver at today’s prices “the opportunity of a generation.”

Many in the investment community often reference a 15:1 gold to silver ratio. Which is the approximate rate at which the metals come out of the earth’s crust.  Yet add in that many leading experts such as Ted Butler, Keith Neumeyer, and others are in agreement that due to the consumption of so much of the silver that’s mined, that there’s actually less above ground silver than gold in existence at this point.

And that if you swapped gold for silver (which requires no out of pocket cash expense) and the ratio even reverted to its historical average of the past 50 years of approximately 42:1 (let alone if it reached 15:1 or lower), and then you swapped your silver back into gold, you’d end up with twice as much gold as when you started.

Especially now, with silver poised to explode, the latest COT reports indicating that the commercial banks have pulled a Houdini and unwound their once massive short position, and more pressure than ever on the dollar system infrastructure, there’s a lot to suggest that swapping gold for silver at today’s prices could well turn out to be as incredible of a trade as Andy believes it will be.
