🚨He Found $23 From 1995… Then Did The Silver Math & Was Devistated!
👉Shout-out to Master Stacker, who opened a box he packed away in 1995 & found $23 he’d forgotten about!
👉A pleasant surprise… until he considered what that money could have bought back then.
👉Using the USGS 1995 annual-average silver price of $5.15 per troy ounce, $23 represented about 4.47 ounces of silver before buying costs.
👉At an illustrative $55 silver price, those ounces would have a metal value of about $245.88.
👉The cash in the box? Still $23....👀
👉That doesn’t mean silver rises in a straight line. But it’s a powerful reminder: keeping the same number of dollars isn’t the same as preserving what they can buy.
🦀Crustacean Nation: What could $23 buy when you started stacking?
👉Sound off below!

🚨Short Of Silver Cash, England Looked To Gold!👀
🪙This Day In Sound Money History: October 23
👉1696: Parliament first read a bill to encourage importing gold guineas & minting gold at the Tower of London. Why? Contemporary chronicler Hopton Haynes described a practical goal: help relieve the shortage of silver cash used in domestic trade.
👉The resulting law allowed guineas & half-guineas to be freely imported again & provided for separate gold-minting arrangements alongside silver.
👉Imports had been restricted because overvalued gold guineas could be exchanged for full-weight silver coins, encouraging traders to ship that silver out of England.
👉Gold & silver weren’t just investments on a chart. Keeping usable coins circulating was a real economic problem, and the rules around minting & imports mattered.
🦀Crustacean Nation: If you had to make everyday purchases with precious metals, would you rather have silver coins, small gold coins, or both?

🚨Fewer People Losing Jobs, More People Stuck on Benefits. Gold & Silver Just Got Mixed Signals!👀
👉October 22 Watchouts: What was bullish, bearish or mixed?
🔴= Bearish |🟢= Bullish |🟡= Mixed |⏳= Pending
👉Lower real yields offered support… but softer auction demand, falling bank reserves & slowing orders pulled the other way. Here’s what Thursday’s watchouts delivered, including the evening reports!
🟡Jobless Claims: 194,000:
🔥Initial claims came in below CME/Econoday’s 200,000 forecast & fell 6,000 from the revised prior week. But continuing claims rose 25,000 to 1.728 million. Labor resilience & signs of difficulty finding work leave a mixed picture for rate expectations.
🟡Leading Economic Index: Unchanged
🔥September’s 0.0% beat CME/Econoday’s −0.2% forecast. August fell 0.1%, while July was revised upward. Steadier growth can help silver’s industrial outlook, but weaken the case for easier monetary policy.
🟡Kansas City Manufacturing: 11, Down From 14:
🔥Factories still reported expansion, but new orders slowed to 3 from 24 & the raw-material prices index rose to 70 from 68. Those details are headwinds for silver’s industrial outlook, although finished-product price pressure eased.
🔴Five-Year TIPS Auction: Softer Demand:
🔥The $26 billion sale cleared at a 2.367% real yield. Bid-to-cover was 2.41, the lowest since April 2025, & the yield came in slightly above the roughly 2.36% pre-auction level reported by Tipswatch.
🟢Broader Real-Yield Decline: Supportive:
🔥Separately, Tipswatch reported real & nominal yields falling that day. Lower real yields reduce the competition from interest-paying assets. That supportive backdrop doesn’t turn the auction itself into a strong result.
🔴Bank Reserves: Down $61.3 Billion:
🔥Wednesday-to-Wednesday reserves fell to $2.970 trillion, while Treasury’s cash account rose $59.3 billion. Fed assets fell only about $2.0 billion to $6.754 trillion.
🔥The reserve drain is a potential liquidity headwind. Treasury’s cash buildup was the main offset, not evidence of a fresh Fed tightening decision.
🟡Diverging Growth & Persistent Inflation:
🔥Australia’s flash composite PMI fell to 47.7 from 51.3, its first contraction in five months. Japan’s composite held at 52.3. Australia weakened while Japan continued expanding.
🔥Japan’s September headline inflation was 2.1% year over year. Excluding fresh food, it was also 2.1%, matching Reuters’ forecast. Excluding fresh food & energy, inflation rose to 2.4% from 1.9%. Japanese rates, bonds & the yen remain worth watching.
👉Labels describe potential gold/silver implications, not verified causes of Thursday’s price moves. They aren’t a tally that predicts the next move.
🦀Crustacean Nation: For silver, which matters more to you here: relief from lower real yields or concern about slowing orders?
