If they stop producing, they make no sales. No sales means no revenue. So, what happens next? They scramble to find physical silver elsewhere. And when that scramble begins, the physical market can break loose from the futures market entirely. As Dario points out, this isn’t just a squeeze — it’s potentially catastrophic for financial institutions that rely on the paper market’s ability to function. The futures market loses its purpose if it can’t tie back to physical delivery. <h4>Why Physical Holders Have the Edge </h4>If the paper and physical markets separate, price doesn’t stop going up just because cash settlements are being forced. Industrial buyers still need metal. Manufacturers still need to produce. That means anyone holding physical silver continues to benefit as price adjusts to reality. Meanwhile, anyone holding paper silver during that period? They miss out. Mike’s been saying it for 20 years: “Do not expose yourself to the failure of paper. Paper is a promise, and a promise can be broken.” <h4>In the End, Price Will Solve Everything </h4>Mike closes with a powerful correction to Dario’s statement. Dario wrote, “Price will solve almost everything.” Mike’s response? “Delete the word ‘almost.’ Price will solve everything.” When the paper market can no longer paper over physical scarcity, price becomes the only mechanism that forces the market back to truth. And for those holding physical silver, that’s when the real advantage becomes clear.</blockquote>
