Mark Thornton predicts that cracks in the highly overvalued US stock market, combined with a falling dollar and rising deficits, will lead to a significant flow of funds into gold and silver. He notes that the precious metals market is currently 'teeny' and underpriced relative to its value.
“And once we see some cracks in that, um, and some significant slippages in stock markets, um, and then, you know, you've already got the problem in bond markets, uh, and financial, uh, and then you'll have the problem in stock markets, uh, the value of the dollar will be slipping, um, and, you know, the market for precious metals is relatively cheap.”
“So I think you're going to see a flow of funds, uh, from all of these other cornerstones, uh, of the market into gold and silver, which right now are incredibly teeny.”
“I mean, gold, uh, you know, the overall value of gold in the world is humongous, but, uh, the, the day-to-day physical marketplace for these metals and these stocks is teeny, teeny, teeny.”
