Silver

​

Most accommodating coinage

​

Throughout History, many different things have been used as a form of money; such as stones, salt, shells and beads. From the very beginning, silver and gold have displaced all other mediums of exchange. The invention of the printing press brought with it paper currency. No government has every successfully substituted money for teal money, because no government can "print" silver. Normally, silver prices are anticipatory rather than reactionary. Once the forces of the inflation index begin to be felt, savvy investors will buy into the market to make sure they are in the position ahead of the general public.

Why Silver? Why Now?

​

The extraordinarily bullish fundamentals of the Silver Market suggest, at current prices, that investing in silver could offer investors one of the single best long-term investments today. It is no secret that both gold and silver are recognized as a store of value. What is not so well known is that while gold has demonstrated a solid trend of price appreciation since 2001, more than quintupling in price, the price of silver has in the past outperformed that of gold.

​

In fact, between January 2, 2009 and December 31, 2012, the price of gold increased over 90%, while the price of silver increased over 160%. In addition, there is a compelling argument for silver investing because the economic and monetary fundamentals in place today are even more bullish than the conditions of the 1970s when the silver price exceeded $50 per ounce. Yet today's market prices, at well below the $50 level, are a mere fraction of levels projected by silver industry experts for the future.

​

Worldwide market demand for silver is growing, while supplies of silver are quickly disappearing. New high-tech uses for silver will further strain already-tight supplies in the future. World demand for silver now exceeds annual production and has every year since 1990, depleting above-ground stockpiles of silver. The U.S. government, once the largest stockpile of silver on the planet, dumped billions and billions of ounces of silver onto the world market over the years, resulting in depressed silver prices. Today, that government silver hoard is gone, and now the U.S. government is a buyer of silver at prevailing world silver prices.

​

For these reasons and many more, the silver market certainly appears to represent an outstanding investing opportunity. The Synergy Metals Account makes investing in silver bullion and coins convenient and flexible, offering up to 4-to-1 investment leverage, and it can be a powerful short-term trading vehicle during periods of rapidly changing silver prices. Today, a growing number of investment analysts, financial advisors and commentators are speaking out about the many wealth protection and profit potential benefits of owning silver and other precious metals.
