You know what all of these have in common?
They all need physical silver to manufacture them.
It's the essential metal which these devices cannot exist without.
If they decide to raise the prices significantly and even to stop selling to consumers, you can also easily decide to fight back against that.
You know how?
By hoarding that essential physical metal they absolutely need to manufacture these electronics.
No silver means no chips means no AI.
No silver means not even the AI companies can buy the electronics anymore.
Literally go out and accumulate physical silver, bars, coins, rounds, it doesn't matter what, just acquire 999 purity physical silver and hold it until they all start crying they cannot make any money anymore since they cannot manufacture electronics because you decided to hoard all the silver.
Avoid jewelry since it has massive premiums, always go for weight, not numismatics.
There is a massive silver shortage going on right now, enough dedicated and fed up people can just buy it all up.

>hoard silver
>silver mining companies start either increasing silver prices or ups their production at the pressure from chip manufacturers
What's the point? you're just shifting the problem to another industry which will profit from this

Silver mining companies which produce actual silver practically do not exist because silver is currently too cheap and is completely unprofitable to mine it directly. They don't dictate the price at all because these mines barely exist.
Silver is mined mostly as by product from mines for other metals. They won't double their production if silver is only 1% of their output.
Opening new mines takes at least a decade.
If silver suddenly becomes more expensive that means the silver you already accumulated by then is more valuable so you can buy more hardware with it when you sell it.

I don't know dude, I'm not an expert in mining or economics but this doesn't click, if there's a "massive silver shortage going on right now" then how is it that "silver is currently too cheap"? shouldn't the price go up if there's really a shortage?
>>
>>107428272
behold 4chans greatest economist
>>
GaAS, copper, cobalt, silicon and gold
Silver is not the biggest one
>>
>>107428471
according to biz they tamp the price down to keep it affordable for industries

>silver price in early 2025: $50
>silver price now: $57
>ram price in early 2025: $200
>ram price now: $700
guess who invested in the wrong comodity
>>
>>107428272
So what you are saying is that investing in silver is stupid idea as your investment will implode as someone opens one singular mine?
>>
>>107429946
Who's gonna open a mine if one ounce of silver is $60, but mining an ounce costs $250?
>>

Of course electronics contain all these, the there's no way to cause a shortage in the ones you mentioned besides silver.
Either nobody has enough money to buy it all up (in the case of gold), or they're so abundant it's not physically possible to store them in your home (all the others besides gold and silver).
Only silver is the metal which a relatively small number of people can afford to buy all up and hide in their own homes.
No silver means no electronics which means no way to make money as an electronics manufacturer if you don't have it.

don't bother anon, you're just screaming into the void.

all that silver in the image bought by some RETARD hoping silver somehow gets more valuable than gold, when he could have bought a single gold bar instead, wgich never devalues

Big fat stacks are the best.
