SILVER BULLION

investing in Silver

Did you know that pure silver is too soft to withstand constant wear, so it is usually mixed with copper before it is made into commercial items? Or that silver is not affected by moisture, dryness or vegetable oils, but sulfur turns it black? While this kind of info is interesting, is it really the kind you need to make a smart investment?

It is estimated that more than 95% of all the silver ever mined throughout history has already been consumed by industrial use. That silver is gone forever, unrecoverable at any price. In 1900, there were approximately 12 billion ounces of silver in the world. Today, that figure has fallen to about 300 million ounces of above-ground, refined silver. This means that at current prices, it would only take about four billion dollars to purchase all of the above-ground silver in the world today. The obvious point is that silver is a highly rare and limited commodity currently trading at prices that soon will be part of its history.

There may never be a better time to buy silver bullion than right now. World demand for silver—for industrial, medical and investment uses—now exceeds annual silver production, and has every year since 1990. Above ground stockpiles are low and are reported to be shrinking rapidly. For these reasons, many feel silver bullion represents an outstanding investment opportunity.

Silver bullion is an increasingly popular commodity utilized by those who appreciate tangible, reliable investments. Luckily, that means there is a lot of info about investing in silver available online. At Bullion Investment Corp., we enjoy educating potential investors about the pros and cons of this volatile market.

You'll quickly find that most people (and websites) know a lot about collectible silver coins, but this type of silver coin is not usually a good investment. Silver bullion, which also comes in coin form, is a much better investment because its value is tied to actual silver prices.

You'll of course want to buy low and sell high to earn a return. Or perhaps you want to hold onto your silver for a while for a possible greater return down the line. Do you have the info needed to make this kind of decision? This is where Bullion Investment Corp. comes in. We offer the latest market news and financial updates tailored towards precious metal investing.
