After major interest rate turnarounds (bottoms), silver is usually the big winner. The reason is clearly explained here. What it comes down to is simply that interest rates reflect the value that the market places on money. When interest rates are high, the market places a high value on money. When interest rates are low, the market places a low value on money. Silver is the best form of money historically, so expect it to outperform during periods of high interest rates. Seeing that silver is the most undervalued due to the effects of the debt-based monetary system, it will…
