The thin market volume and downside volatility in Gold and especially Silver, presents a wonderful year end accumulation opportunity for precious metal investors.

As 2009 draws to a close we note that the last 4 weeks has seen gold move from $1224 to under $1100 and silver move from $19.50 to $16.75. Forget all the other year end sales, silver has an almost 15% discount versus 4 weeks ago. The fundamentals haven't changed. The Chinese are buying, silver industrial use is growing exponentially, investment demand is strong, supply is constrained. Why isn't everyone accumulating more silver. Why must investors only buy silver when the price is hitting new highs? Use the volatility to your advantage, accumulate on pullbacks. Silver still represents one of the best long term investment opportunities on the planet today. Read more here or watch this video to see why.

So whilst we desperately search for year end retail discounts on useless household and personal items, we overlook the biggest bargain of the season. Silver.

Happy new year from all the team at BULLIONMARK
