In the second half of this week’s update, we make a building case for how the world is understandably unaware of a building shortage in readily available reasonably priced bullion products, not merely from small size (IE: silver bars, silver coins and silver rounds) but eventually to even institutional and industrial large-sized bullion bars.

This year’s commodity price selloffs with relative fiat US dollar strength have helped quiet headlines about many ongoing constraints here and to come. Shortages will continue to be a growing issue in the commodities and energies we need. In the coming fiat dollar bear market, that will become painfully obvious.

One only has to look back over the past decade-plus to understand how supply shortages in metals and energy have happened.
