Don't Sell Yet? | The "Gold-to-Silver Ratio" Says We Are Early

The markets are closed for Christmas, and silver is sitting at $71.91. To many investors, this price feels high. It feels like a bubble. But history tells a different story. In this massive 4-part investigation, we deconstruct the "Nominal Illusion" and prove why silver is actually trading at a massive discount to its true historical value.
We compare the 1980 Hunt Brothers squeeze (driven by leverage) to the 2025 Structural Squeeze (driven by shortage). We perform a forensic audit of inflation data to show that the 50 high of 1980 is equivalent to over 170 in today's purchasing power. We also analyze the "Industrial Trap," explaining why modern demand from Solar and EV manufacturers is price-inelastic compared to the photography demand of the past.
Finally, we map out the "Endgame Strategy." We explain why you should not sell for cash, but instead use the Gold-to-Silver Ratio to swap your volatile silver for stable gold or real estate when the ratio hits historical extremes. $71 is not the top; it is the new floor.
In this video, we cover:
The 1980 Comparison: Why today's deficit is structurally more dangerous than the Hunt Brothers' paper leverage.
The Inflation Math: Calculating the "Real All-Time High" using CPI and Shadow Stats ($170 - $900).
The Inelastic Buyer: Why Apple and Tesla will pay $500/oz for silver without blinking (The Salt in the Soup theory).
The Recycling Myth: Why the "Secondary Supply" that ended the 1980 and 2011 rallies does not exist in 2025.
The Ratio Trade: The specific exit strategy to lock in generational wealth without touching fiat currency.
