While most online dealers in the US still have inventory (and many have 90% Constitutional Silver on sale), there are warnings on two very popular dealer websites that "historic" price action and demand may cause shipping delays.

This could be the beginning of another physical shortage in the markets and elevated premiums like we saw off and on in 2020-2023.

Or it could just be a short-term blip as normies catch FUD from ai slop channels and enter the market haphazardly.

Fiat currencies are all going to fail, eventually; but until they do, and unless North American and European nations lose their sizeable gold reserves in the process, there will be continued Western dominance for the foreseeable future.

The graph on the left, from Visual Capitalist, show the overwhelming dominance of Western currencies as foreign reserve holdings, with English speaking nations accountable for over 2/3 of reserve currency holdings, and BRICS barely making the list with China at just 2%... but if gold were included in the graph, it would be #2 at just over 20% and ahead of the Euro by a bit... but this would not propel China or any other BRICS countries to the top because of the next graph.

Gold holdings, listed by USDebtClock, show a slightly different balance, with North America and Europe still holding the vast majority of gold; but Europe collectively holds more than NA, and BRICS are not as desperately far behind when compared to currency reserves. If Silver and gold rise dramatically, the West still owns more than the BRICS countries, so the balance of power would need something much more kinetic to unseat the top dogs.

Silver should still easily outperform fiat currencies as well as gold; but the real takeaway from all this is that you want to be positioned in a White Western nation with a strong currency that can pay you much more in equivalent amounts of Silver... and unless you buy into Chinese propaganda that they secretly own more gold than everybody else, you needn't worry about BRICS, who are not a credible threat nomatter what the boomer FUD lords on X or CCP enjoyers on reddit might say.

Last weekend, a bank heist in Germany, Northeast of Frankfurt, saw 3,000 safety deposit boxes broken into after thieves gained access through an adjacent parking structure with a core drill.

The boxes were insured for €10,300 each, which is less than 3 ounces of gold, proving that holding your metals at a vault service is not always the safest option.

Keeping metals at home also comes with some risk, but in smaller amounts it is less tempting for would-be thieves; and there are many options for burying metals, with steep slopes, concrete slabs, large trees, farm equipment, brambles, and marshy soil offering some protection against metal detectors and ground penetrating radar.

Whichever storage options you use, it's important to reduce risk by choosing multiple different options and locations, as well as not telling anyone who doesn't absolutely need to know.
