Silver Is Running Out - Robert Kientz #6360

Silver prices are surging as a multi-year supply deficit collides with shrinking above-ground inventories. Rob Kientz explains why years of underproduction, rising mining costs, and long development timelines are creating a physical silver squeeze that's becoming impossible to ignore. Despite higher prices, U.S. retail investors remain largely disengaged, distracted by tech stocks and crypto. Meanwhile, governments and institutional buyers are quietly positioning for shortages, even as some individuals are forced to sell precious metals out of financial necessity — a pressure that hasn't slowed silver's upward trend. Kientz breaks down the growing disconnect between paper markets and physical demand, arguing that silver could follow gold's trajectory if the gold-to-silver ratio continues to narrow. He also explores the historical role of silver coinage and the U.S. Mint's production challenges as profit priorities shift away from bullion. Looking ahead, Kientz outlines why silver prices could reach $150 by 2026, while cautioning listeners about volatility, market corrections, and the importance of disciplined strategies like dollar-cost averaging — especially for those focused on owning physical metal.

Silver is no longer just a precious metal — it may be becoming a strategic necessity. Kerry Lutz sits down with silver expert Michael Arries to break down why silver demand is accelerating, driven by electronics, AI, and critical industrial use. With sustained physical buying pressure, Michael explains why traditional paper market manipulation is losing its grip. As supply tightens, the conversation turns serious. Michael warns that future government and national defense actions could dramatically impact availability, limiting investor access just as demand surges. He outlines a bold price outlook, suggesting silver could reach $200–$300, while also sharing why trading some silver for gold may be a smart way to lock in gains amid rising volatility. Kerry echoes the urgency, cautioning that opportunities like this may not last if government intervention steps in. This is a timely conversation for investors trying to stay ahead of what could be a historic shift in the silver market.

Gerald Celente joins Kerry Lutz to break down the accelerating economic and geopolitical crisis unfolding worldwide. As governments prioritize military spending during economic downturns, Celente warns that consumers — not economies — are being sacrificed. Gold and silver are surging as safe-haven assets, signaling rising fear beneath the surface. The Trends Research team argues this shift reflects growing expectations of a much larger global conflict. The discussion covers Europe's leadership failures, U.S. foreign policy, and escalating tensions in Ukraine, Israel, and Iran, exposing the widening gap between peace rhetoric and military reality. They also examine Gen Z's political awakening, growing disillusionment, and pushback against an expanding "nanny state" as opportunities shrink and debt piles up.

Silver is no longer trading like a paper asset — and that changes everything. Kerry Lutz and David Morgan break down why the market structure has shifted, how physical demand is overwhelming paper suppression, and why $100 silver is no longer a fringe target — it's a bullseye. They examine JP Morgan's quiet move to the long side, the historical roots of silver suppression dating back to 1965, and why the LBMA and COMEX are losing control as physical markets take over. David also explains why silver stocks may offer asymmetric upside versus physical metal, including dividends, leverage, and tax advantages — plus how marketing, messaging, and timing could shape the next phase of the silver trade. This isn't hype. It's the endgame.

Kerry Lutz and Erik Weir explore why intelligence alone doesn't lead to financial success — and why many smart, high-earning people still struggle with money. Erik shares his personal journey, from overcoming a childhood brain injury and stutter to developing a resilience-driven mindset that shaped his views on wealth, discipline, and long-term thinking. They break down core financial principles too many people were never taught, including compound interest, deferred consumption, and the dangers of living beyond your means.

The conversation also dives into real-world opportunities, from real estate realities in Florida to niche business ideas like high-end housing for pilots. They touch on entrepreneurship, wealth concentration in places like Silicon Valley, and the power of networking with the right people.

This was the week the 60-year silver suppression regime finally cracked. What started with low-liquidity chaos on Black Friday turned into a full-blown breakout on Cyber Monday, marking the first commercial signal failure in more than a decade — and the price action shows it. Silver ripped from the low $50s toward $60 in hours, sell walls vanished, algorithms froze, and shorts began to lose control as physical demand overwhelmed the paper market. Behind the scenes, industrial buyers have been quietly panic-stocking while capital drains out of public assets ahead of the 2026 ECM turn. And the people closest to the market? They've been loading up on physical silver for six months, anticipating this exact moment — the break between reality and the paper illusion. In this episode, Kerry explains why Black Friday acted like nitroglycerin under the suppression system, why Monday's surge confirms a structural failure, and how the physical market has already decoupled from paper pricing. He digs into Armstrong's ECM target for March 14, 2026, the three potential price paths from $90 to as high as $600 in extreme conditions, and why purchasing power can explode even in inflationary periods. This isn't just a rally — it's an escape event. The lid is off, the pressure is rising, and for the first time in decades, silver is trading like a free asset again.
