Silver Miners Have Outrun Silver Since 2020
Since March 2020, silver has returned about 402%. The silver miners returned 445%.
That gap is the leverage our research team focuses on. When silver rises, a producer's net asset value can rise much faster, and share prices tend to follow. It works in both directions, and a mine is only as good as the company running it.
The Ultimate Silver Playbook shows how the team separates the miners worth owning from the rest, and which silver stocks are on its watchlist now. It's free.

Edison Square and the History Museum Have Two Ways to Celebrate Filipino Heritage
Filipino food, fashion, karaoke and community are coming together at Edison Square this Saturday as Tacoma celebrates Filipino American History Month. The free, all-ages gathering brings chefs, makers and artists to South Tacoma Way—and it’s one of two local celebrations worth putting on your October calendar.
A second free gathering at the Washington State History Museum takes a different approach, connecting Filipino American history with the land, labor and family stories that helped shape Washington. Between the two, there’s a chance to enjoy the celebration and discover something you might not have known about the community behind it.

Flu Season Is Starting Early. Here’s How to Protect Your Family
Flu season appears to be getting an early start locally. The Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department says flu-related emergency visits have already reached levels it typically sees around Thanksgiving or December—even though October has barely begun.

TAM’s New Exhibit Puts You in the Artist’s Seat
Tacoma Art Museum’s next exhibition comes with an invitation to participate. Opening Saturday, October 10, Drawing Room brings together decades of artwork and turns the gallery into a hands-on drawing studio.
It’s a chance to see what happens when looking at someone else’s work inspires you to try something yourself. And there’s a free evening option for anyone curious about giving it a go.
