Ted Butler and Izzy Friedman: The silver rush is on

7:30p ET Monday, October 20, 2008

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

In back-to-back essays at GoldSeek's companion site, SilverSeek, silver market analyst Ted Butler and his mentor, Izzy Friedman, argue that the silver rush is on, exceeding the gold rush by a number of measures. Friedman urges silver mining companies to stop selling their own production at the suppressed Comex price and instead meet their sales contracts by buying and taking delivery of Comex contracts and forwarding Comex silver. "Let's see how long the Comex can sell silver at $10 an ounce," Friedman writes, meaning, of course, REAL silver rather than paper silver.

The Butler-Friedman essays are headlined "The Silver Rush Is On" and you can find them here:
