Liberty and Finance, Released on 3/20/25 (Recorded on 3/17/25)
Rick Rule discusses the dynamics of silver and its short positions in the market. He points out that silver has often been more speculative than gold, with its price typically surging towards the end of a precious metals bull market as momentum builds. Regarding the physical silver trust PSLV, Rule comments on the record short interest, attributing it to institutional skepticism about the silver market’s direction. He notes that such short positions could lead to a “short squeeze,” where those betting against silver may face significant losses if the market turns bullish. Rule suggests that the volatility tied to these positions creates an opportunity for investors who are long on silver to potentially benefit from these dynamics.
