Discover Why Savvy Retirees are Diversifying their Investment Portfolios with Silver: https://goldiracompaniescompared.com/savvy-retirees-silver

This episode discusses how silver reached a nominal all-time high near $65 per ounce on December 12 before experiencing a rapid retreat. This sharp price correction was triggered not by changes in physical supply, but by the CME Group's decision to raise margin requirements for COMEX silver futures contracts, forcing traders to liquidate leveraged positions. It provides an in-depth analysis of margin mechanics, fundamental drivers like industrial demand and supply deficits, and the distinction between paper and physical silver market dynamics.
