The correct answer is D.  In spite of 2010s record-high prices, silver is, by any account, a miniscule portion of the world’s wealth. The ratio’s high occurred in 1980, reaching 0.34% of financial assets.  Silver as a percentage of global assets would have to grow over 48 times to match the record.  It is true that many more paper assets exist today than 30 years ago, but the renaissance in silver will continue to increase its portion of worldwide assets.
