Comment on Silver trades to $50 an ounceparent

Comments

Gold and silver is most likely from China buying a massive amount (to decouple from the USD slowly). Unsure about the asset bubble but interest rates are “high” compared to the zero interests days, still low historically. Assets are the best way to wash away inflation (you pay your debt with today money) so could be the reason.

Eh, they're not that high if you look back to the era of stagflation:
