Global silver scrap supply fell to its lowest level in 26 years. World silver recycling in 2017 dropped by nearly 50% since its peak in 2011. According to the 2018 World Silver Survey, global silver scrap supply declined to 138 million oz (Moz) compared to 261 Moz in 2011. While the lower silver price is partly responsible for the large drop in silver recycling, there are other m...Read More
Some silver bulls lacking patience are being driven mad by its seemingly interminable sideways pattern, yet you shouldn't be, because the continuing sideways movement allows more time to build a portfolio of silver investments ahead of the major bullmarket that we know is incubating. Right now it is being held in restraint like gold, by the dollar rallying, but that won't carry on forever, and as...Read More

While the demand for precious metals is certainly off its highs from prior years, investors would be quite surprised by the astonishing amount of physical gold and silver investment since the 2008 financial crisis. Only by comparing the gold and silver investment demand in the prior decade, can we truly understand how the precious metals market has changed, and probably forever.Now, before I...Read More

You're nobody else's liability, so I know when I buy you, I'm not relying on anyone else to live up to their end of...Read More
McClellan Financial Publications, IncPosted May 6, 2019May 3, 2019A little bit of fear over the old saying about “Sell in May and go away” has led the VIX Index to pop up through its 50-day moving average (50MA), but stopping right at its upper 50-1 Bollinger Band.The VIX’s pattern of higher lows is not confirming of the higher price highs, and for now that is a problem for the b...Read More
