Silver to Gold Ratio 1883 to Present - Bullion

[robertlam18]

Some people say 5:1 ratio that is so ridiculous. If given this ratio I take gold and dump silver for sure. This is common sense.

[robertlam18]

I don't see how silver ratio is too low when it clearly shows silver got cheaper and cheaper compare to gold in the past century. If anything silver is over valued the mean ratio should be around 65:1

[SilverSnowballing]

thank you for this video.. Great video!

[spike1138]

Remember as well; Gold is practically useless for everything other than looking pretty, not being destroyed or used up and sitting in vaults. It's too soft to be useful for an awful lot of practical purposes (like wiring, for instance, gold wire would break too easily) and it's main USP, the fact it's non-corrodible, Platinum does a much better job of.

[TheSilverAgeHasCome]

With the only difference. World population 7 billion- for the past 2 decades, hi advanced technology ( silver is used in everything ) - The whole world have access to silver thrue their computer - world depression - And imagine in 20-30 years from now, where our technology will be, imagine wat our kids will see! SILVER will never be under value again

[BusyBeeCompany]

As gold becomes out of the reach of mear mortals and they reduce their weight purchases and therefore ounces purchased on the open market silver is the metal of choice, platinum and palladium are too expensive and palladium isnt well enough known but at $800 oz still too much for 1 oz purchases for too many people, better $100 silver then $1000 palladium...but the problem is people who buy silver are not buying gold, hence swings and roundabouts

[Rico8458]

excellent vid. great way of showing the lay man what is going on.

[closer71]

Even though silver closed today at $42.90 it is still at only a 44:1 ratio to gold...way undervalued. With gold sure to hit $3,000 in less than two years, I'm extremely confident we are going to see $100/oz. silver, though probably much higher than that. It appears to be a forgone conclusion that 30:1 is just around the corner and it will easily give way to 25:1, which will give way to 20:1 and then possibly even 15:1 as gold soars to the 5-digit range over the next decade...

[syprix]

So if gold and silver where the same price lets say 40/oz witch one would be the better metal for industrial use?

[MONOPOLY35]

40:1 and counting!

[jnnycliff]

Thanks for the info, can you put it into line chart. and then we can see if the price should go higher or lower this year. Thanks!

[maidenak]

Today, April 2, 2011, the ratio has fallen to 37.8. It looks like the last time it was this low was in 1982 at 36:1. Will it go lower? I think so. A 1979 ratio of 14:1 is not out of the question before this bull market is over.

[TheTrueJBV3737]

40.31 - 1, march 4th 2011. we have a long ways yet to go!

$95.13 oz silver is 15-1 ratio,, :-) Thats not taking into account bank fraud of silver+gold shortages, nor the undervaluation of gold.

8000$oz silver here we come LOL.

[polygamous1]

@TheTrueJBV3737 whatever happens silver will skyrocket its demand from industry is unantainable at this lever n it will have to RISE way above what some experts prediced it will

[TheTrueJBV3737]

@polygamous1 well 8000$ is the unrealistic value in true reality actaully, its the only thing some people understand. the real value of silver soon will be infinite compared to dollars because the dollar will be worthless. regardless i think silver will reach around 3-1 ratio with gold then as silver mines pop up everywhere after the next 'great war' it will go back to 15-1 for a while.

[purplefetus3]

today the ratio is between 46-47. I think it's going to drop significantly. It's not too late to buy silver and take advantage of the upcoming favorable ratio. ; )

[mattyelle1]

YES. Buy and hold people. Let's bust the criminal banking cartel JP Morgan!

[Unlawfulplot]

Most Gold is at the bottom of the Ocean due to shipwrecks...Its actually logged in records how many ships they'd lose and were...Back at that time...the was literally no way to get the gold...that why you have guys like that Mel whatever digging them up...

[87solarsky]

Look at supply/demand / outlook of/for silver: Silver WILL skyrocket!

[Probesoul]

During the time of Tiberius (time of Christ) 200 denarius was about 21.5 troy ounces of silver by weight, the price to buy 5,000 loaves of bread to feed 5,000 men with their families (Mark 6:37). Average price of a loaf of bread in Canada today is $3.00. To feed 5,000 at one loaf per family would cost $3 x 5,000 or $15,000. Thus an ounce of silver during the time of Tiberius priced in today’s dollars is $15,000 /21.5 troy ounces (200 denarius) = $697 per ounce.

[WarrivarNeo]

considering the fate of all fiat currencies is to not be worth the paper they are printed on id say...yeah silver is undervalued :D

[goldhunting]

Yes, silver will rise faster in a bull market ...if ....there is a Hunt Brothers like situation.

Bottom line is, we're in a deep recession, and therefore the gold to silver ratio will continue to be quite high.

Or you might hope for a Maloney predicted situation, where silver once again becomes 'money money' like in the 1800s.

Be safe people.

[unreallogic]

Just found a very interesting educational article on silver, check it out (also has a promo code to save money on silver :) futuremoneytrends. com/Silver_Trend. html

[peerless77]

I like charts

[BUILDINGWITHBULLION]

Great vid , Thanks.

[bluedonkeyman]

a chart would have been easier to visualise than that...

[toddsilverngold]

silver and gold are the best product for network marketing! Check out my channel :-)

[FarangBalls]

I bet Buffett wishes he held onto his silver.

[basho81]

@FarangBalls Did he sell it off? How did this guy know when Buffet bought all that silver?

[kouron]

@FarangBalls i bet he knows what he is doing

[brizzlekizzle]

@FarangBalls haha yeah, over 100 million ounces I think. I heard that just like the Hunt situation, there were factors beyond his intrinsic value idea. The government screws everybody. Also, if he still did own the silver, I bet the price would be much higher now.

[professorcurtis]

This is an excellent video! Thank you for this posting!

[TheLiddlekiddle]

I'm just waiting for that 20:1 or better ratio reset

[stackinsilver]

Thanks for the video

[dojufitz]

Gold to average home prices would be another excellent vid to show.

[Rico8458]

excellent vid

[ronpauleducates]

Actually not true, gold is lost, in many ways, ie space equipment that will never come back to earth etc, I don't want to type all the ways, but you get the point!

[branman055]

actually not true all the gold that has ever been mined is still in circulation or in depositories or in private homes. Some used in industrial use but still around. Silver out of the Billions of ounces that were mines only 5% is still left in circulation, we use up silver and it never comes back. We have to mine for more that is why the % of the rise in price in silver is more than gold. Gold increased 83% over past 10yrs while silver has increased about 233%. Buy Silver now and ride it up

[ronpauleducates]

Notice the pattern, when the gov fucks around in the market, removes metal to fiat currency, the ratio did always close with time, this just means they have a plan AGAIN! Thus the amero.

[ONErighteousNESS]

good vid...very clear and informative.

so we know the usd will be demonitized and historically silver has dropped in economic unstability...do you then think silver HYPE is actually a fraud?

Or do you think because the world currency is usd currently THIS SITUATION is totally different and will shove PM's (Gold & Silver) through the ROOF unitl the world excepts what will come next?

Could be no amero will come just the MARK?

[clarkcolt45]

The industry demand of silver is far much bigger now then in -91, also the central banks was selling of huge amounts of silver in the 90's.

Most silver today is in landfills and the reserves above ground has never been smaller.

This has made silver interesting for investors and the investing part of silver is also getting bigger and bigger.

Another "historical" event is the growing markets in the 3rd world, now getting computers and cellphones. The only demand in the 90's was from west.

[SurviveWorldWarIII]

Silver is definitely undervalued. In fact, many top analysts say the prices of silver and gold ought to be reversed based on supply alone. Some say the Earth has less than a decade left of silver left in its ground. Silver actually has alot of industrial demand. All the Gold that's ever been mined still exists in one form or another.

[yogiudo]

but if that happened a lot of very `rich' people would lose their wealth and power. So chances are it wont happen.

Guessing.

[felixdov]

Didn't Darwin fix it at 15.5 : 1 at one time?

Silver / average house price would be a very interesting one?

Is silver valued?

Excellent video, thanks!

[BackBurnerNews]

Thanks this is great for knowing the price ratio.

Can you do one showing the historical above ground physical supply ratio of gold to silver?

[1mealperday]

yes , undervalued due to scarcity

[THEDROPPEDSOCK]

@1mealperday Are you sure ? I would think that the more scarce silver is the more it would be worth due to the fact that it is rarer. Basic supply and demand, the less there is of something the more people pay assuming it is in demand. I'm assuming you are correct as you have ten thumbs up so could you please explain, cheers.

[SilverBar9999]

Great video for its quick easy to absorb historical economics lesson.

[ewffaces7]

thanks.

I thought gold silver ratio could go back to 15 to 1 or even 1 to 1

[Guillermojperry]

Great video! Contact me if you want to buy gold and silver at a 60% discount. I know an awesome broker.

[SGTLibertyProject]

Great video!!! It would be even better with some music. 5/5 *****

[micollision]

get some metals gold,silver,brass( the kind with a primer in the bottem )..........5of5

[Danster82]

it would be nice to see a similar video of silver to loafs of bread as a loaf of bread or somthing similar is actually a good indicator of the general economy. The ounce of gold its being measured against in this video is also making huge swings in price so in terms of purchasing power doesnt tell us much but still worthwhile to note the gold to silver ratio.

Good video

[brodudemonkey]

Very good video, remember the ration to hold for investing is 80%G and 20%S. Don't go crazy because of the cheaper price in moon, but we also have to keep in mind the historical prices of both. At the same time there is a possibility of a dollar collapse in a depression scenario which calls to question what past examples are best to use.
