Silver Supply Inadequate Amid Monstrous Industrial & Investment Demand

by Jon Forrest Little, Silver Seek:

The G7 leaders say they are committed to reaching so-called “net zero” emissions by 2050 after halving global emissions by 2030.

The initiative has many buzz phrases such as building a “just and inclusive” clean energy economy. The plan vilifies fossil fuels and glorifies “green energy” with sweeping statements asking “stakeholders to improve their ESG performance.”

But most of us are confused by what this all means.

by Ronan Manly, BullionStar:

With less than 20 trading days left until the end of 2023, we have just witnessed a series of record-breaking price developments in the international gold price, as well as heightened gold price volatility, and the price moving in a $120 range intraday.

While a new all-time high monthly close in the US dollar gold price was achieved on Thursday 30 November at $2040/oz, and new all-time highs on the weekly close and daily close were achieved on Friday 01 December at $2072/oz, these new record highs were in hindsight, overshadowed by what happened subsequently.

by Craig Hemke, Sprott Money:

Get ready for a shift in the precious metals markets as August comes to a close. Learn how recent data releases and market trends could impact the gold and silver price in the upcoming weeks.

August is typically a very quiet month for the COMEX precious metals as traders everywhere try to sneak in one last vacation before summer ends. Those “dog days” are now drawing to a close, so we should all brace ourselves for renewed volume and volatility as the calendar moves toward September.

The G7 leaders say they are committed to reaching so-called “net zero” emissions by 2050 after halving global emissions by 2030.

The initiative has many buzz phrases such as building a “just and inclusive” clean-energy economy. The plan vilifies fossil fuels and glorifies “green energy” with sweeping statements asking “stakeholders to improve their ESG performance.”

But most of us are confused by what this all means.

The transition to net zero is moving forward quickly, even though critics believe it’s draconian with respect to its scope and consequences.
