Silver's a BUBBLE!

There's no shortage of silver. This is a speculative mania.

Silver started this run at $4. It's up almost 1000%.

It's just the uptrend of the day and has little in the way of fundamentals to justify these prices.
 
Quote from BlackBison:

How do you know it won't go up another 1000% before the bubble bursts?

Exactly. That's the logic of every bubble. We'll know the bubble is about to burst when everybody "knows" it's going up another 1000% or for that matter when everybody KNOWS it's going up another 10%.

Yes my point is we are unlikely to be at that point yet. Most people I know outside of trading don't even know silver has gone up. Most of them don't even know it was ever a currency..

Not that those things are preconditions for Silver to drop. Hundreds of markets in history have been cut in half without a mass retail investor participation and mania.

Yes, there's truth in what you say. We're still a way from the cab driver checking his Ag spot while driving but barring the complete demise of the US$ silver will eventually be once again primarily just another commodity and will be priced according to supply.
