Another ratio is the Housing/Silver ratio, which over the last 100+ years peaks at around 20,000 and bottoms at an average of 5,000 (under 2,000 in 1980). What that means is that at the peaks it typically takes 20,000 ounces to purchase a "median" priced home. Today the average home purchased in silver stands at an amazing level of around 50,000, meaning it takes around 50,000 ounces of silver to purchase the "median" priced home !!!

I calculated the 6 mo change, and indeed many areas show a decline. However, the numbers are not seasonally adjusted. The conclusion of the article seems reasonable that prices are declining over the last 6 months, but is there something that is being missed as far as a seasonal or some other factor when comparing quarterly figures?

thanks
