NEW YORK, 8 July 2015 – Ahead of the US Mint selling out of silver coins this week, private-investor sentiment on the metal already rose sharply in June says financial news service MarketWatch, citing BullionVault's monthly Silver Investor Index.
"Released Tuesday," the report says, "BullionVault's Silver Investor Index rose to 56.7 in June from below 50 in May, as the number of private investors buying silver climbed to its highest level in 9 months, while the number of sellers fell to its lowest level in 3 years.
