Gold and silver are poised to soar, especially with new physical market demand entering the scene from a growing number of institutional money managers. Both physical markets are LEADING the shares, which have a ways to go to catch up. What continues to blow me away is the lack of oomph in the smaller gold/silver companies. Keep in mind many of the good ones, like an ECU Silver, are 8 standard deviations from where they would be in normal times. As a result, investors have the opportunity of a lifetime staring at them. Buying in at these levels is the biggest layup trade I have ever seen.
