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.

Cityscape Games is working on Elf Storage, a new escape room where players investigate a long-untouched storage unit and uncover the remains of a mysterious toy workshop. The 75-minute game is planned for the company’s downtown Tacoma location, alongside its existing Tacoma-themed rooms.
The Weekly Volcano reports that owner Daniel Dror has run out of construction money and hopes to finish the room before the end of 2026. Cityscape’s site is accepting donations and gift-card purchases to support the project.

Columbia Bank Says Tacoma Is Still Home—Its CEO Has Moved to Arizona
Columbia Banking System, the parent company of Columbia Bank, is opening an executive office near Scottsdale, and CEO Clint Stein has relocated to Arizona. The company says its corporate headquarters remain in Tacoma and its Washington branches will continue operating without changes to customer service.
