There's a growing shortage in Silver. The physical metal. WHEN (not if) it gets to serious levels that people are waiting months for their silver, $75 will be dirt cheap.

Let’s see the stages of a shortage.
1) Pre-shortage – the users will have to wait 3 to 6 weeks extra for shipments. Then the prices can rise to $20-30/oz.
2) Shortage – the users will wait an extra 6 weeks to 4 months for silver. Then the prices can rise above the old all-time highs of $50/oz.
3) Super shortage – the users have to wait more than 4 months for their silver shipments. The price will range from $100 to prices you won’t believe.
