Phil Streible, senior market strategist at Lind-Waldock, reveals when he would recommend investors get long gold and silver.: " Well we're seeing the same thing we're seeing that gold silver ratio start to trend up a bit , a lot of investors are coming out of silver markets is that the characteristics of the silver market changed quite a bit you've got a lot of volatility in their you've also got increased margin requirements it's a little bit too chappy for the average investor , so they are coming out of debt but they still want the metals exposure so they're going into a little bit more conservative play like the gold market gold's getting accumulated also by central funds. So you're seeing that that play come in and gold is very supportive."
