Three weeks ago, I talked about Silver not getting any love,
That was until I saw a three year down trend line break and a breach of the psychological $17 level.
This observation was further supported by the Smart Money buying over 85, 000 of the September call options, $17 strike price in SLV for $26 / options. This trade has already doubled for a profit of $2.2 MM and we haven’t even hit Sept yet.
If you feel you missed out, no sweat the party is just getting started and I just made a fresh batch of punch for the punch bowl. Here’s why the party is just getting started and will go on…until the break of dawn.
Silver has surged 13% this month and touched a two-year high on Wednesday.
“It’s all a validation of the existing gold trade, which we still think goes higher, but I think it’s to a point now where a lot of people probably feel they’ve missed the gold trade, and therefore you get this kind of poor man’s gold,” Citigroup Inc. technical strategist Tom Fitzpatrick said by phone.
Exchange-traded funds backed by silver are also lending support. Total known holdings in silver ETFs are at an all-time high in data going back to 2006, according to figures compiled by Bloomberg. The assets are heading for a 14th straight weekly advance weeks, longest streak in more than 11 years.
But don’t take my word for it or Tom Fitzpatrick, the chart tells it all.
