No idea!! It's getting ugly out there though
Could be a Bin Laden bounce for the dollar? Margin hikes from CME? Both?
Fundamentally nothing has changed, and there is so little silver out there that huge swings like this are probably going to be the norm.
If this is true, might as well learn Texas Hold Em.
The Bin Laden theory is BS, IMO. The CME changes would have had an effect, but I wonder if it should have been this large.
The way silver has been going crazy with the largest appreciation this past year of just about any commodity, I wonder if the big boys were into any manipulation.
Before you laugh, consider this. A few years ago Platinum, reached about $2,300/Oz ( which is crazy high )! It was way out of whack and an amazing appreciation. It hasn't been close in price since. Somebody made huge profits.
I know Plat. and silver are far different, but just sayin. See here about platinum manipulation.
BTW: At an even $33/Oz., I would buy silver.
