Recently, I posted a big update on Silver.
As many of you know, I’ve been a big silver fan for a long time now.
Slowly and gradually continuing to build my investment in coins and bars because I believe at some point all the money printing means silver has to go vertical.
I’m not a financial advisor, so I’m not telling you what to do, just telling you how I feel.
Here was that update in case you missed it:
I know many of you feel the same way because every time I post about silver I get dozens of emails in response from people of like mind.
It's good to be around friends and people who see the world the same way as I do.
You know, the idea that something of finite and limited supply must be the basis for our monetary system....gold, silver, even Bitcoin.
But not "fiat" dollars when they can just print trillions every other month it seems like.
Anyone ever seen the pictures of wheelbarrows full of cash from places like Venezuela or the Weimar Republic?
Yup, that CAN happen here folks.
Don't think it won't.
So I've been personally buying silver (for a long time) but I want to tell you why I love working with one company in particular....DISME coins.
They only sell 99.9% investment grade pure silver coins.
And the coins have designs to honor President Trump.
A few of you have messaged me asking whether these are the "real deal" and trustworthy.
So I wanted to tell you more about them and why I chose to work with DISME.
First of all, I never want to bring you something that isn't 100% the real deal.
We have over 12 million people reading this website each month, can you believe that?
And we're like a big family here.
Just like I would never want someone in my family to buy something that wasn't trustworthy, the same goes for my WeLoveTrump family.
So let me tell you more about DISME....
DISME coins are made by the Highland Mint.
Those who know coins know the Highland Mint is perhaps the most prestigious out there.
From their website, this is the Highland Mint:

Cool, right?
So we're talking 99.99% authentic and real silver.
But what I love the most is they are BIG TIME Trump supporters.
While people and businesses are being cancelled left and right just for merely supporting Trump, DISME is not backing down.
They support PRESIDENT Trump 100% and they are proud to do so.
And in exchange, I am proud to work with them.
Check out this coin:
And this, my personal favorite, the MAGA Lion:
And this:
I'm sorry if some of those are sold out by the time you see this, but that's another thing that makes DISME special....they only make a limited run of each coin and each item.
Once it's gone, it's gone!
But you know what that means?
For everyone that got one, you just got something that's even more valuable because only a limited number exist!
It's basic economics.
Nice, right?
Here's more on silver, from my friend Bo Polny.
What do you think about $600/oz silver?
Bo says it's possible.
Watch:
And more on the silver market.
CNBC confirms that silver set a new 8-month high today (and that may be just the start):
Silver prices surged Monday, hitting an eight-year high.
The rise was possibly connected to the online WallStreetBets community on Reddit, a group of retail traders who played a major role in the rise of GameStop last week.
Three experts broke it down.
Jim Cramer, host of CNBC’s “Mad Money,” discussed the complex nature that comes with investing in precious metals, which faces its own limits as a resource.
“People need to recognize that silver, while a precious metal, is chiefly used for LED. It’s used a great deal for autos, obviously a great deal for jewelry. When you take it away, you’re talking about a market that is very small. There are only two stocks that are really investable … Pan American Silver does have 17.5 million silver ounces, they failed to deliver on the amount that they’d like to do. They’re predicting this year to do 22.5 million, that is actually very big. The other one that I find that is, let’s say, worthy of investment is Wheaton Precious Metals. The stock is up big, they have about 120,000 in ounces per year they intend to put out, and then everybody else is really too small. Obviously people are using ETFs in silver. Do I think that they’re misdirected in taking it up? I do think that if you think that GDP is going to grow, you might have something winning in silver, but it is GDP-oriented. This is the first thing that they have targeted that, frankly, has a limit because there’s not that much silver out there. But at the same time, when it is used is not ornamental. So therefore, you really do need a step-up in business, in order to make that invaluable.”
Mohamed El-Erian, Allianz chief economic advisor, connected the rise to the GameStop short squeeze, and how the conflict between retail traders and hedge funds could play out.
“The fact that you can get people to look at silver, and in the process, they look less at GameStop, and because of that, there’s less worry that the hedge funds who are short GameStop are going to sell, means you can impact lots of markets. So, don’t underestimate in the short term the influence. As to what will happen, look, there’s a major battle going on between three actors, not two. Three: the hedge funds that are short GameStop, the retail investors that are long, and the people in the middle. And the question as to where it goes next, is who’s got the weakest hand? Who’s going to fold first? Who is not going to be able to stay in that trade? Now, historically, that has been the retail investor. But the retail investors are more organized right now. … If they can stay organized, they can actually force the hedge funds to cover more. But today, you get a notion that maybe, they cannot stay organized. So we’re going to see. The one thing that is systemically worrisome is if the intermediary falls. That is a completely different issue than if the two sides of the trade fold.”
