>>>>>> (Smith was the author of "Silver Profits in the Seventies," a powerful and accurate analysis of silver that was said to have heavily influenced the Hunt Brothers). At the time, silver and gold were coming off a period of government price controls. This had artificially depressed the price. According to Smith a powerful upward surge was inevitable after this price suppression was relaxed. He claimed that prices would explode upwards after the controls were lifted and as usual, he was right.<<<<<<<<<

Mr Cook fails to mention that Jerry Smith had also predicted that silver
would reach $200 by 1986. I remember several silver/silver coin dealers at the time distributing a pamphlet by Smith stating that silver prices would double from $50, and then double again to $200.

What many claim that Smith and others failed to forsee was the huge above ground supply that came to the market
as silver rose to $50... There are rumblings once again that there still exists 100's of millions of ounces of silver sitting in warehouses in Europe and Asia,(a story advanced by Martin Armstrong a couple years ago) and that this, along with the "paper" silver market, continues to depress the market.
