Pic and I both agree that silver will have its day. He thinks before the end of the year...I think in a few years. However, I do agree with Pic that the window for actually acquiring the physical at cheaper prices might close very, very quickly. If you are looking to take a position in physical silver, don't mess around...these are great prices. If you are looking to add to a core position like I am, I think prices will bottom around $20-$22. I've thought this for a while, and I think the charts tell the story. Prices will not be there for long, however, and the physical supply might be exhausted at that point...so proceed with caution.
