The so-called grownups tell us everything is fine. The inflation monster is gone now.

Or is it?

Sure, most people don't believe it's there, but I think the inflation monster is hiding under the bed. The adults in the room say it's not there. But, kiddos, there are signs -- if you look close enough.

First Majestic Mines Silver and Gold 
in Mexico and Operates Bullion Store

First Majestic is a publicly traded mining company focused on silver and gold production in Mexico and the United States. The company owns and operates the San Dimas silver and gold mine, the Santa Elena silver and gold mine, and the La Encantada silver mine as well as a portfolio of development and exploration assets, including the Jerritt Canyon gold project in northeastern Nevada.

In 2024 these mines are projected to produce between 21.1 to 23.5 million silver-equivalent ounces, consisting of 8.6 to 9.6 million ounces of silver and 150,000 to 167,000 ounces of gold, with an all-in sustaining cost of $19.32 to $20.68 per payable silver-equivalent ounce.

In a practice unique to First Majestic, the company offers a portion of its silver production for sale to the public. Bars, ingots, coins, and medallions are available for purchase online at the company's bullion store at some of lowest premiums available. 

In Q1 2024 First Majestic will also commence bullion production from its 100%-owned and operated minting facility, First Mint LLC, to manufacture its own exceptional silver bullion products catering to the growing demand for physical silver.


The headline number in last week's September Consumer Price Index report provides a false sense of security. Annual price inflation dropped to 2.4%, the lowest since February 2021. 

Sounds as if we're perfectly safe lying in our bed, right?

But look and listen a little more closely. ...
