Why $175 Silver? A Goodman Levels Price Objective

One of my few followers asked me: “How do you get $175.00/oz for a silver price?” Good question! Here is the reasoning.

The Hunt Brothers Precedent

Remember that in the period 1977–1979 the Hunt brothers’ “cartel” was able to push silver from $6.00/oz to $50.00/oz. The fact of the matter is that now, in 2025, there is MUCH more money in circulation and, more importantly, in the hands of the winners of the Second Gilded Age game. That is to say, there are a lot of billionaires with money to burn.

Trust me, pilgrims: it would not take much of a concentrated effort by a few of these people (heck, even one of them) to set poor, defenseless silver on fire.

The Goodman Levels Measurement

Beyond that, I used a Goodman Levels measurement and came up with a $150.00/oz to $175.00/oz price objective. In this day and age, that may well turn out to be wildly conservative.

We’ll see what we shall see.
