Silver overvalued and I did not find that one in the options listed.

Added. The options are growing thick up there...

I will *never* touch silver again because of the Hunt brothers debacle. It will happen again.

15x is not the historical ratio, at least not for quite a while.

Here is the last 20 years of the gold-silver ratio:

Silver is undervalued while gold is overvalued. Gold is spiking because of this debt crisis talk.

Ah, that's an option I hadn't considered... I'll add it to the available choices Smiley

So historically, there has been a value ratio between gold and silver, with gold typically being worth ~16 times as much as silver. This has been the status quo for well over a century as best my research can turn up, but right now gold is worth almost 40 times as much as silver. The question is, are gold prices too high or are silver prices too low? Would you expect silver to eventually rise to 1/16 the current gold price or would you expect gold to crash to meet 16x the current silver price?

Pure speculation, I know, and my holdings in precious metals are pretty evenly divided between the two but I'm posting out of pure curiosity what the temperature of the market is at present.
