Muppet, obviously I have no idea where prices are headed to but am starting to think that perhaps silver is getting a little pricey. I'm not heavily invested so outcome will not affect me that much. Talking to my brother last week I was very surprised to hear that he has started to buy silver. Not at all what I expected to hear from him. Having said that, I don't think that a top in the market has to be preceded by a large portion of the general populace buying up silver. I didn't know anyone who had a barrel of crude and yet it still managed to shoot up to $150 (and straight back down again with the GFC).
