The gold/silver ratio is a great ratio to watch. It is basically how many ounces of silver you can buy for one ounce of gold. The ratio floats from the 70's to the 40's with some periodic extremes. It is currently around 75. I love buying silver at this level, and then trading it for gold when the ratio is in the 40's.
One of the complaints with precious metals is that they don't provide income. Well that's bullshit. It just takes a little effort.
Buy silver now and trade it for gold when the ratio is in the 40's. That's pretty good income, or FREE GOLD depending on your perspective.
