Recorded on February 26 2026
Silver just cleared a structural ceiling that capped it for decades, and Christopher Aaron says the setup is only getting started. In this conversation with Natural Resource Stocks host Steve Yang, Christopher breaks down why the 45-year consolidation matters, how supply gets tightened by real-world industrial consumption, and why long base-building phases tend to produce the most explosive next legs. He walks through his long-term chart work on silver across centuries, explains how he frames consolidation zones versus blow-off phases, and shares the macro chart he watches most closely: the Dow priced in ounces of gold. From there, the discussion moves to practical positioning across physical metal, diversified miner exposure, and private placement structures, with constant emphasis on price action over narratives. If you want a chart-first framework for the precious-metals cycle and what signals would confirm or invalidate the thesis, this episode is built for you. #Millettian
