Download or read book The Silver Mania written by W.J. Streeter and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a definitive study of the phenomenon known as Silver Mania. The conclusions can all be stated in a few pages but the underlying facts are carefully presented to provide a basic under standing and to substantiate the conclusions. Most of those afflicted with silver mania are undaunted by facts; they don't want to be persuaded of the reality of things. Speculators do not learn from history, so this study is not for them. It is for the masses who have been innocent victims of silver mania, and who are able in a democratic society to correct injustices. Silver and gold and copper have a chemical as well as historical relationship. Both silver and gold were scarce until the discovery of silver in the Americas in the 1500's, and the scarcity ratio from pre-1500 is cited by silver bulls as a 'natural price relationship'. During the period that silver was becoming overly abundant it also came into wide usage as a monetary standard and this led to inflation. This was solved by demonetizing silver and the world was thus oversupplied with an attractive metal that was useful only for jewelry and tableware. Silver mines in the United States were the major source of newly-mined silver in the world and the mine operators were able to lobby successfully for legislation to support the price of their product until industrial use started increasing during the 1950's.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research studies determinants of silver futures price volatility in Thailand Futures Exchange using generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity model. The sample data consist of daily closing price, volume, and open interest of silver futures from the period June 21, 2011 to December 26, 2012 for the nearby month contract with 376 sample data points. I construct data sample by switching or rolling over to the next maturing contract one day before the expiration date. The empirical results reveal there is no significant relationship between volatility and time to expiration. There are a negative role for trading volume and a positive role for open interest in determining silver futures price volatility. The analysis of silver futures price volatility insists the Clearing House that margin requirements for silver futures should not be affected as the time to maturity of the contract decreases. The findings are also helpful to risk managers dealing with silver futures and predicting silver futures price volatility.

Download or read book Any Silver Linings The London Silver Fixing s Impact on Public Silver Markets Before and After the Introduction of Contemporaneous Futures Trading written by Andrew Caminschi and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1897 the London Silver Fixing has conducted a daily auction which, to this day, sets the daily benchmark price for the precious metal. This private pricing club functions alongside active public markets for silver, including the physical spot and futures markets. This empirical market microstructure study analyses publicly traded silver instruments to assess the impact the fixing has on public markets. The study spans fourteen years of fixings, from January 2000 to December 2013, which includes the introduction of contemporaneous silver futures trading in late 2006. It finds statistically significantly lower prices around the time of the fixing in both spot and futures markets, elevated levels of trade volume and price volatility immediately following the fixing's start, well before the conclusion of the fixing and the publication of its outcome. Further, it finds statistically significant return advantages in the four minutes following the start of the fixing for informed traders while no significant returns follow the publication of the fixing outcome. Trades in the opening minutes of the fixing are highly predictive of the price direction of the fixings. The size and significance of these results increase after the introduction of contemporaneous futures trading.

Download or read book The Story of Silver written by William L. Silber and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is the story of silver's transformation from soft money during the nineteenth century to hard asset today, and how manipulations of the white metal by American president Franklin D. Roosevelt during the 1930s and by the richest man in the world, Texas oil baron Nelson Bunker Hunt, during the 1970s altered the course of American and world history. FDR pumped up the price of silver to help jump start the U.S. economy during the Great Depression, but this move weakened China, which was then on the silver standard, and facilitated Japan's rise to power before World War II. Bunker Hunt went on a silver-buying spree during the 1970s to protect himself against inflation and triggered a financial crisis that left him bankrupt. Silver has been the preferred shelter against government defaults, political instability, and inflation for most people in the world because it is cheaper than gold. The white metal has been the place to hide when conventional investments sour, but it has also seduced sophisticated investors throughout the ages like a siren. This book explains how powerful figures, up to and including Warren Buffett, have come under silver's thrall, and how its history guides economic and political decisions in the twenty-first century"--Publisher's description
