Last week Rafi Farber detailed how the silver market is playing out the late 1970s almost exactly, and how we are currently situated in 1978. Well, it’s not just silver. With gold at new all-time highs and silver lagging, this was also the exact same situation of that year. History is repeating, and we should not be surprised, as human nature does not change.Meanwhile, the Bank Term Funding Program is closing up next week, and one month later, about $80B in emergency loans from the Fed come due.
