@jchoneandonly how would that happen?

@bunsguns8222 so why not buy if it is undervalued?

@jchoneandonly so they spend vast amounts of wealth to lose money? What are you a mercantilist?

@danieltoledo9383 if that's the case, then you should by as much silver as you can since its undervalued, No? I'm not saying prices aren't being controlled, I'm just wondering why you all don't take advantage of it?

@jchoneandonly I don't see how deflating the cost of an item, say silver, impoverished anyone, except maybe silver miners. If you think silver is undervalued why aren't you buying it? I'm just curious, if I thought a stock was undervalued I'd but it.

@jchoneandonly I don't see how supposedly dropping the price of an asset, which makes entry into that market easier, is supposed to make people poorer, no. Please explain that? And explain why they only seem to do this to gold and silver?

@CPfromEv if its cheap now, perhaps everyone should buy it?

@jchoneandonly yes so the "they" you are talking about are burning tons of wealth to keep those prices down. I mean, that's the only way a market traded item stays low, if the market, all the people trading it, agree. I don't see how some nebulous they is stopping that. You sound like the feminists and their arguement about the patriarchy. If you think the price is ridiculously low you should buy it. As much as you can. But it could be that the inflationary pressures aren't uniform yet, like they were in the 70s and early 80s. When they are you may get your wish of gold and silver raising to unheard of levels. But not today's, so buy yours now, right?

@jchoneandonly hostage? Really? A bit dramatic aren't we?

@jchoneandonly they are easier was to obtain a cheap workforce, like going to a developing country. But I'm sure some nefarious global cabal of they is much easier of an answer.
1
@jchoneandonly oh the cabal includes the political and military classes as well. I'm sorry, how foolish of me.

@yehimstone5492 Really? That goes back to what I said earlier, short sell and the price goes up, u pay all the money. So these rich people love paying all this cash to what keep prices low so people can buy more? Makes no sense if you are trying to "oppress" people

@antpoo You could say that about literally any asset. Can assets and markets be manipulated, yes but only short term. And the longer you do it the more distortion and harder it will hit when it flips. The gold and silver bugs just lose it when their stuff doesnt go up. I dont see why. If that happens it means everything is bad. Like wishing a pox on all our houses. So it has to be some grand conspiracy of nefarious individuals seeking to oppress everyone.
