- 0:01$200 silver. What about an American retail
- 0:06silver frenzy? Actually, people in America
- 0:09starting to buy a ton of silver and gold and we need to talk
- 0:14about major precious metals news out of the state of Florida.
- 0:18This could be earth shattering news for the precious metals
- 0:23sector. Guys, Florida is a massive,
- 0:26massive economy and this is big, big news.
- 0:28Thank you for being here. Thank you for being part of
- 0:30Ron's basement. This video is focused on silver
- 0:34and gold for the silver and gold community and for those in the
- 0:37crypto community who have overwhelmingly told me they have
- 0:41an interest in precious metals. Let's start by talking about
- 0:44this big potential for a retail frenzy, and I think this article
- 0:49shows it better than any. We're going to go out to MSN and
- 0:54an article that came originally from Whoop.
- 0:58Hold on here originally came from Business Insider about what
- 1:03is going on at Costco, which is just nothing short of stunning
- 1:07right now. Let's move up here so we can
- 1:10get, and this is an article talking about how people are
- 1:13going crazy again for gold and I would imagine silver as well.
- 1:18And don't forget, we're going to talk about $200 silver next.
- 1:22But from the article again from MSN and Business Insider says 1
- 1:27Collector One collector who has bought more than $30,000 worth
- 1:32of gold this year told Business Insider there's growing concern
- 1:36in the precious metal community about gold prices rising so
- 1:39quickly. He said, quote, and I want you
- 1:42to think about this. Do you feel this way?
- 1:44To me, it's the measuring stick for how bad things are going to
- 1:48get. The person requested anonymity
- 1:51because of concerns about personal safety, but he provided
- 1:55Business Insider with receipts from recent Costco purchases and
- 1:59documentation of his additional gold holdings.
- 2:03He said he owned no gold until this year.
- 2:07So this guy didn't own any gold until this year and has been
- 2:10buying, right? We're only in April and only
- 2:13began collecting as the political and economic
- 2:16environment became more unpredictable.
- 2:18Costco, which sells gold bars and coins online and in some
- 2:22stores, made it easy for him to get started.
- 2:25Costco, this is where he says it, quote UN quote.
- 2:28Costco was the gateway drug to gold investing.
- 2:32It's no secret that Costco sells hundreds of millions of dollars
- 2:35worth of gold bars and coins at some of the lowest markups
- 2:38around. But there are times when the
- 2:40market moves a little faster than the company adjusts their
- 2:43prices. In particular, This is
- 2:46interesting. People are actually getting a
- 2:48discount in some in some instances.
- 2:50Several products listings on Tuesday, 100 Grand Bar and One
- 2:54Ounce Bar, were listed at prices so close to the spot market that
- 2:58Costco executive members using the Costco City Credit Card
- 3:02could see a net reward of about 1 to 2% of the purchase price.
- 3:07And there they are there. In other words, Costco is
- 3:10basically giving some members money to convert their dollars
- 3:14into gold up to certain limits on individual and annual
- 3:18transactions. Of course, executive rewards are
- 3:20capped at the $1250 a year. So what we're seeing here guys,
- 3:26and this could be a big, this is a big thing for us to remember
- 3:30and realize. What we are seeing is that
- 3:34people in the United States, the Costco moms, the Costco dads are
- 3:37starting to move more and more into precious metals.
- 3:41And remember, the United States is the biggest economy in the
- 3:45world. Why is this a big deal?
- 3:47It's a big, big deal because if Americans start to buy metals,
- 3:52which they really haven't at the retail level, right, we've got
- 3:56like .5% of our money invested in metals, it could provide an
- 4:00even more robust tailwind behind the precious metals prices.
- 4:06Remember, we've got gold right at hitting record highs.
- 4:10That has happened without the retail market really fully
- 4:14participating. It's also happened, by the way,
- 4:17without Jerome Powell lowering interest rates.
- 4:19Imagine, you know, when we actually get lower interest
- 4:22rates, when they start printing money and we get even more
- 4:26people. I think we are primed for higher
- 4:28prices in both silver and gold. Let's talk about $200 silver.
- 4:34I want to pull up. Well, let me say this first.
- 4:38I was chastised over the years when I would say things like
- 4:41$3000 gold, right? Remember the old bear there?
- 4:45He used to be blindfolded with a $2500 across his blindfold.
- 4:50And when I would put out videos talking about $3000 gold, I
- 4:54would often get accused of click bait, right?
- 4:56You're crazy. What are you thinking?
- 4:58Right now we're at close to what we did hit 35, $100 gold and I
- 5:03am fully confident and fully feel good about telling you that
- 5:07I do believe during my lifetime and I AM 55 years old that we
- 5:12will definitely see $200 silver. The silver price right now is
- 5:17ridiculously low. Anybody right anybody who you
- 5:22talk to will tell you the silver price should be much higher.
- 5:25Let's look at a couple factors and start with the gold to
- 5:29silver ratio. I want you to look at this chart
- 5:34and I want you to realize one important thing and we need to
- 5:38update it here because this only goes through 2024 but doesn't
- 5:43show where we are right now, which is at 100 to one.
- 5:47It takes 100. This, this is this line is
- 5:51actually moved up to right here, right at the 100 level, 100, 100
- 5:59ounces of silver to buy one ounce of gold.
- 6:02I would say right when I'm looking at this chart, let's
- 6:06talk about a 15 to 1 gold to silver ratio that is not out of
- 6:11the question. It got close to that back here
- 6:14in 1980 and absolutely we could get there again if we get to a
- 6:2115 to 1 gold to silver ratio, meaning that it only takes 15
- 6:26ounces of silver. And that's and that I shouldn't
- 6:29say only because really, right, it should take more than that.
- 6:34But if it takes 15 ounces of silver to buy one ounce of gold,
- 6:40OK, Right now at the current $3000 gold price, we would
- 6:44easily have $200 silver if we were to go to even let's say a
- 6:5060 to 1 gold to silver ratio right now, right?
- 6:54That number would make the silver price $50 per oz $50 is
- 7:00like the all time nominal high. We hit that in what, 1980 and
- 7:04again in 2011, right? So to get there again, and in
- 7:08today's dollars, those numbers are 7080.
- 7:11I've heard upwards of $100 per oz.
- 7:13But nonetheless, just on pure nominal number level, to hit the
- 7:18$50 per oz mark is not out of the question.
- 7:21And you've got to realize something so, so critical when
- 7:26we think about silver, and that is that it has been manipulated
- 7:30down like nothing before. Let's take a look at this from
- 7:33the dude. This is incredible to think
- 7:36about. I love the dude.
- 7:38He puts out great, great content on X Hold on here, I'll be right
- 7:45back. Don't leave.
- 7:48Hold on here we go and boom all right, let's make sure we're
- 7:56back and we are You can see it now.
- 7:59Sorry about that guys, but this this person goes by the dude on
- 8:03X and wait till you hear this talk about manipulation.
- 8:06There's the dude puts this out every day, OK, right here.
- 8:12The silver market this was as of yesterday.
- 8:14So yesterday the silver market traded 630 million paper oz.
- 8:21OK guys, that comes pretty darn close to how much the entire
- 8:26silver mining industry creates, mines, produces over an entire
- 8:33year. That's probably almost 75 to 80%
- 8:38of the annual total worldwide silver production is being
- 8:43traded in one day on the paper markets.
- 8:47OK, that is unbelievable. The COMEX had 0 deliveries and
- 8:51the LBMA had 1673. Do we close above $35 this week?
- 8:56Remember the spot price of silver is only 66% like we just
- 9:02talked about of the all time high from 1980, from 1980.
- 9:08And that's in this pure nominal terms, right?
- 9:11$50.00 in 1980, it's probably the equivalent of probably close
- 9:16to $100 today. What happens when 100 plus years
- 9:20of price suppression breaks? You're about to find out and I
- 9:25agree with you. Do you agree right?
- 9:27Do you agree with the dude? I absolutely agree with him.
- 9:30Like we it's like a beach ball that's been held underwater.
- 9:34The silver price, I mean, give me a break in one day.
- 9:38You're telling me in one day that the paper markets are able
- 9:42to trade like almost the entire equivalent of the entire mining
- 9:46industry output of production of silver for a year.
- 9:53It's absolutely stunning. It is absolute manipulation.
- 9:56And you know, right, smart people, the God Institute, it's
- 10:00been decades proving that the silver price has been
- 10:04manipulated. We are in for much, much higher,
- 10:07much, much higher prices. I want to give you guys a little
- 10:10update as well. I will be putting out at least
- 10:13twice a week a regular schedule of gold and silver focus
- 10:17content. Again, the gold and silver
- 10:19community has asked me to do that.
- 10:22The basement dweller community and also people from the crypto
- 10:25community. And I really know that together,
- 10:28right, those two communities are focused on the same thing and
- 10:31that's decentralized finance. OK, so just so the people that
- 10:36really are interested in this gold and silver focus content,
- 10:40it'll probably be something like Monday and Thursday that I'll
- 10:44put out a piece of content focused primarily on the
- 10:47precious metals. But what?
- 10:50What about Robert Kiyosaki? Are you going to get mad at me
- 10:55because I said $200 silver? Well, if you don't like it,
- 10:59right? If you don't like it, well,
- 11:00remember, a lot of people didn't like when I said $3000 gold two
- 11:04years ago. But Robert Kiyosaki is
- 11:07predicting a silver price of $3000 just 10 years from now.
- 11:14And with the D that remember it's not so much why is that
- 11:19possible? I'll give you the reason why,
- 11:21because it's not so much about the quote UN quote value of
- 11:26silver and gold going up. What it is, is the real value of
- 11:31the dollar going down. That's what's going to drive
- 11:35these prices higher and higher and higher.
- 11:37And there's so much insecurity out there, uncertainty out
- 11:43there, that these prices are absolutely possible, absolutely
- 11:47possible. One last thing I'll say about
- 11:48silver, right? Hey, we could have $400.00
- 11:52silver. How you like that?
- 11:53I'll double the 200. We could have $400.00 silver
- 11:55easy. Because think about this.
- 11:58Silver and gold are both precious metals, correct?
- 12:03Right. You can't argue that those are
- 12:04silver's been money longer than gold from what I've been told.
- 12:08But how do we get to $400.00 silver?
- 12:11Think about this very simple fact.
- 12:13Every year the mining companies, right for each one ounce of gold
- 12:18that are that's produced, they produce only 7 ounces of silver.
- 12:23One ounce of gold, 7 ounces of silver.
- 12:26They're both precious metals. Wouldn't that mean right, that
- 12:30the actual silver price should be 1/7 that of gold?
- 12:34Argue with me why that? Why that, why that should be
- 12:37different? And if the silver price were 1/7
- 12:40that of the of the price of gold, the price would be
- 12:44actually well north of $400.00 per oz.
- 12:47But wait, there's more. There's more.
- 12:51Because that gold that's produced, that one ounce of gold
- 12:55and that 7 ounces of silver, none of the gold is consumed.
- 12:59Whereas a big chunk of that silver, which is also a precious
- 13:04metal, is actually consumed by industry.
- 13:07You've heard it ad nauseam, right?
- 13:08Solar panels, batteries, electronics, medical equipment,
- 13:14pure water purification, I mean the list goes on and on and on.
- 13:18So to think that we can't have these massive, massive, much
- 13:21higher prices is, is, I think foolish.
- 13:24But that's just my opinion. OK, You don't have to agree with
- 13:27me. You never have.
- 13:29But that's what I believe $200 silver scratch, take that
- 13:33thumbnail I made, scratch that out and let's say $400.00
- 13:38silver. And think about this like we
- 13:41started the the, the, the, the, the, the video today talking
- 13:44about if retail demand for metals in the United States is
- 13:50really non existent. I'm talking to a lot of people
- 13:53out there and they're telling me that even with these record high
- 13:56gold prices, but in particular with silver, demand for silver
- 14:00on a retail investment level is like really kind of suppressed
- 14:04right now. When that picks up, when that
- 14:08when people wake up to what you know, and I know already about
- 14:12silver, I love it. I mean, look at this, isn't that
- 14:15just absolutely it's the most beautiful thing in the world.
- 14:21And when the world wakes up, there's a silver Unicorn, the
- 14:25silver when the United States that could bring and we're
- 14:28starting to see hints of that through Costco.
- 14:31But that alone also could create a massive wave of demand for the
- 14:35precious metals. What happened yesterday,
- 14:40everybody's wondering why did gold go down?
- 14:42What $100 silver went up by a dollar?
- 14:45It's it's the craziness of what's going on right now.
- 14:48And overall, this uncertainty will provide support to both the
- 14:53gold price and the silver price. But yesterday it was the, the
- 14:56Trump. And it's not a political
- 14:57statement, not a political channel at all, but what I call
- 15:01the Trump tantrum, right? The craziness of what's going on
- 15:05right now and the uncertainty that's driving these metals
- 15:09prices got unwound a little bit. I mean, think about how crazy
- 15:13this is the, the tariff situation got dialed back.
- 15:17Remember just what, 2 weeks ago we were going to put tariffs on
- 15:20everybody in the world And now descent the new Treasury
- 15:23Secretary apparently behind closed doors, as reported by
- 15:26Bloomberg. Basically kind of walked back
- 15:29the hard line stance that we have on China that made the
- 15:33markets skyrocket and made gold right go down temporarily.
- 15:39Silver got a big bid yesterday. It was up what, like $1.80
- 15:42cents, some crazy amount. That's because silver has this
- 15:46kind of component to it now that is tied into the general
- 15:50economy. So that helped buoy the silver
- 15:53price. But let's run out and take a
- 15:54look at what's going on right now in these markets just to
- 15:58keep a read on what is happening.
- 16:01And we'll go out to CNBC and take a look at the at the metals
- 16:06prices. I want to refresh this and let's
- 16:12go to gold. All right, so gold's up in the
- 16:15future is about 37 dollars, 3300 silver holding in there at $33
- 16:23roughly, let's say. So what we're really waiting
- 16:26for, I mean, obviously you guys know what's happened with gold,
- 16:30break out the big cup and handle formation.
- 16:32What we're really waiting for with silver is to get this break
- 16:36above $3637 per oz. Why do I think that's going to
- 16:40happen? Well, I told you some of the
- 16:42reasons already, but from a chart perspective, if you look
- 16:46at a chart of the silver price, we are building a pretty solid
- 16:50base foundation right now in this 3330 two $34 range.
- 16:56Once we break out, and I've talked about this for years with
- 17:00you into that 373839, into the $40 plus range on silver, it's
- 17:06off to the races. It's slingshot.
- 17:09OK, That's when all these things, all the and why you're
- 17:12going to ask? Well, because all the years of
- 17:15manipulation, downward manipulation, all of that
- 17:18holding the beach ball underwater on the silver price,
- 17:21all that energy is going to come free.
- 17:24And on a long term basis, as you know, we're in like the biggest
- 17:28cup and handle formation, like a 45 year cup and handle here.
- 17:33Let's see if I can pull that up quickly.
- 17:36Hold on one second and hold on here.
- 17:45Here we go. All right, there we have it,
- 17:49right, the 45 year cup and handle in the silver price
- 17:53starting in 1980 as you can see at $50, hitting $50 again in
- 18:002011 and right now really working hard to get that break
- 18:04out above the $50 level this year or early next year, right?
- 18:10I'm thinking we could hit $70 silver by April 1st of next
- 18:15year, $80.00 silver, not out of the question at all whatsoever.
- 18:27One last thing I want to mention to you that I think is very
- 18:30ironic. Here we go.
- 18:32Oh, we're back. Hey, basement dwellers.
- 18:35Hey guys, thank you for being here.

- 19:28allowing and facilitating our Ron's basement meet up for you
- 19:32and me right now. All right, guys.
- 19:35Ironically and then we're going to move on to this big Florida
- 19:38news. But ironically above it all.
- 19:42And we started this by talking about how we are starting to see
- 19:46kind of a frenzy at least at the Costco level for gold and silver
- 19:50purchases in the United States. But then overall, and I think in
- 19:54particular with silver, the retail demand has been subdued,
- 19:59ironically above it all in the United States, right?
- 20:02It blows my mind that we actually have some of the best
- 20:06deals on a world because around the world people are buying
- 20:09silver. I'm talking to people in South
- 20:11Korea. Talking to people in India, of
- 20:14course, China is buying silver like crazy, OK, but in the
- 20:19United States, still subdued. However, especially when
- 20:23compared to people in Europe, we get the best deal going.
- 20:27I mean, it's kind of a crazy situation.
- 20:31All right, sorry, I'm fighting off a cold, but I'm here for
- 20:33you. But my, my friends, my basement
- 20:35dwellers, let's talk about the big news out of Florida.
- 20:39OK, Florida had some major news that I think can have a big
- 20:44impact on the, on the gold price and the silver price and let's
- 20:51get it up here. Here we go.
- 20:54This came from our friends over at Citizens for Sound Money
- 20:58yesterday. Big wind for sound, Big wind for
- 21:02sound money in Florida legal tender.
- 21:05House Bill 999 Legal tender passed in the Florida House of
- 21:09Representatives with an overwhelming support level 112
- 21:14yays to one nay. OK here.
- 21:18Here's the big part. This critical piece of
- 21:20legislation advances the legal legal status of gold and silver
- 21:24as legal tender in the state of Florida, reaffirming
- 21:27constitutional principles and providing Floridians with more
- 21:31financial freedom and protection.
- 21:34Next stop, the Senate. The bill will be heard tomorrow,
- 21:37which would be today, Thursday, April 24th in the Florida
- 21:41Senate. Stay tuned.
- 21:42We're one step closer to making sound money a reality in the
- 21:47Sunshine State and there's a video of it passing.
- 21:50Why is this a big deal guys? Because Florida, right?
- 21:54We know Florida's a big crypto state.
- 21:56Florida's also a big gold and silver state in Florida, the
- 22:01economy, I forget, I apologize the accurate you can, you can,
- 22:05but you can Fact Check me on this that if Florida where its
- 22:08own country, right that it would be like, I don't know, like the
- 22:1114th largest in the world. Like their economy is huge.
- 22:15The Florida economy is massive. A lot of people have been moving
- 22:18to Florida. So we get Florida, we know
- 22:21what's going on in Texas. We know what's going on across
- 22:24the country with legal tender legislation for gold and silver
- 22:28giving you right as a citizen of a state of one of the states
- 22:32that has this legislation. You're right, there was in the
- 22:35Constitution to use gold and silver as real money.
- 22:39So we are rooting for the citizens for sound money and we
- 22:43are rooting for the people in Florida.
- 22:45We love D Phi, right, decentralized finance.
- 22:50We like money, right? Like I showed you earlier here,
- 22:53I'll show you one more time. Things like silver that aren't
- 22:57controlled by a central authority.
- 23:00Big news was that Florida has at the House has passed the new
- 23:04legal tender legislation. It's going to be heard in the
- 23:07Senate today. And that's good for you.
- 23:10That's good for me. That's good for anybody that's
- 23:12into gold and silver precious metals, even crypto for that
- 23:16matter, right, because crypto and gold and silver are D Phi
- 23:20decentralized finance. That's what golden's that.
- 23:24That's why gold and silver investors love gold and silver.
- 23:27Silver does not depend. This here does not depend.
- 23:33It wasn't me that screwed up. That was must have been a
- 23:35technical problem right on a government to give to give it
- 23:40its value. That silver in that coin right
- 23:44could be 3000 years old. It could have been it, it's, it
- 23:48didn't ever depend on a government or any institution or
- 23:52any centralized power to give it its value.
- 23:56Not like this, not like paper money, right?
- 23:58This is what our founding fathers did not want.
- 24:01So it's OK. Kind of ironic, right?
- 24:04You get the founding fathers on these notes and they didn't want
