I have a silver mining stock investment and the share price has appreciated very nicely in the past year. I’m thinking about investing more in silver this year and am trying to decide between investing directly in mining stocks, mining stock ETF, or should I just invest in a physical silver ETF. What are the pros and cons?
Silver mining stocks vs physical silver ETF?

I’m wondering what happens if those physical ETFs ever get hit by too many failure to delivers or people find out they don’t actually hold the amount they say they do.
But I’m enjoying SLV calls until I figure it out
I prefer to own shares of companies to the commodities themselves. Miners and drillers often pay a dividend and have the ability to profit from both a rise in price and a rise in consumption, while commodities only reflect a change in price.
