No. Every Europen Bank is connected to the worldwide "SWIFT" transfer code. Making monetary transfers visible in case something went wrong. Is that news for you?

Leaving politics aside and what policies Donald applies for a change. For the first time in their history "the little people of America" have a guy in office that talks like them, acts like them and thinks like them. Furthermore they admire him for his wealth, considering the fact that he had to start out with only with a measaly 200 Million $ from his dad to realise his American Dream. (How much of his wealth consists of bank loans is not of interest to his worshippers). Except for Elon Musk, few intellectuals and few helmsmen of large US companies see any long therm benefits resulting from Donalds economical "visions". Worldwide, news commentators have been asking the Oracle of Delphy "why was Donald voted into office once more"? The Oracle of Delphy replied: No one before talked, acted like us "little people before". "HE IS OUR GUY", at last. Not to forget, that before Donald, since the birth of the US, presidents originated mostly from a east coast elitarian "pseudo aristocracy" or people with massive financial backing. But not one of them talked and acted like Donald. That's Donald's "magic potion" that has mesmerised half of the voters. For the first time, the "little people" of the US feel truly "represented". I sincerely hope that Donald's Magic will help the little people of the US that they will not need to work 2 to 3 jobs by persueing the American Dream.

This thread sails under "Problem Nr 1 here, payment problems". No other problems here are more present in this sub-forum. I rest my case.

In the case of Silver, I would like to add that for the 3rd year in a row Silver demand has outpaced Silver production. Of course, something like that doesn't make the headlines. But this is exactly the constellation for another typical Silver outburst on the upside. This time not needing any "market cornering" as before, just the fundamentals sinking in. According to the current pricing of Silver, those fundamentals have not yet "sunk-in".

According to big mining companies (Glencore for example) most Silver content is connected to copper mining as far as quantity is concerned. Surely other mining procedures yield a certain amount of Silver. But as far as quantity is concerned, copper is the main supplier of Silver.

Good on you. Same as you, Warren Buffet is also sitting on a lot of cash. IMO the time when everyone is crying "fire" rushing for the fire exit is not too far off.

Like this post. It shows how those metals have fared in form of potential "home currencies". Precious metals are priced in US Dollars. So every time one buys those metals, one must be aware that he has automatically turned into a currency speculator as well. (home currency versus the US $).

Silver is mostly a by-product of copper mining.

Quite correct. Silver goes in "spurts" on the upside as well as on the downside. When it starts to move, it moves dramatically. Investors waiting for a "little setback" to buy may wait for the little setback in vain because the little setback never comes. To me: Eighter one is involved in Silver or NOT. Like I said before: ""All-in" on Silver right now? Why not. But one must be aware that one is riding on the back of a Tiger.

Only buy Cryptos if you are sure someone will buy a series of numerical combinations from you at a higher price.

"Minimal changes"?????

G/S = Gold Silver Ratio. OR: How much 1 oz of Gold will buy how many oz of Silver. Fluctuates widely. For example: Recent low on Jul 6 2024 was 72. Recent high on Apr 25 2025 was 108. Today it's at 99.

Gold and Silver have corrected "nicely". Recent lows must hold, otherwise one can not qualify the recent downturn as a thechnical correction anymore, rather a change of trend. Easily taking both metals down another 10% or more. Silver is special. A store of value as well as an Industrial Metal. Inevitably, one must also keep an eye on what other Industrial Metals are doing. That does not make future price predictions any easier. Silver peaks of the past have always been in connection with "market manipulation" in one form or the other. (Cornering the market). "All-in" on Silver right now? Why not. But one must be aware that one is riding on the back of a Tiger.

And the caps probably made in China.
