- Tuesday, July 5, 2011, 1:32 PM Analysts at RBC Capital Markets see a rally in silver (SLV +4.6%,) for the second half of the year, and Phillip Futures agrees, calling for a $45 price. Large silver gainers: Endeavor Silver (EXK +11.1%), Silvercorp Metals (SVM +12.1%), Silver Wheaton (SLW +7.2%. Comment! [Commodities, Quick Ideas, On the Move]
- Monday, June 27, 2011, 5:35 PM Flying a bit under the radar, the silver ETF (SLV -2.2%) takes out its May sell-off low to close at a level not seen since March. With that key support taken out, could a $20 handle be in silver's near future? 4 Comments [Commodities]
- Monday, June 20, 2011, 3:56 PM Silvercorp (SVM +5.4%) says its stock is undervalued and plans to repurchase up to 10M of its outstanding shares over the next year. The shares' sharp decline over the past months has greatly outpaced the rest of the silver miners (SIL). 2 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Thursday, May 26, 2011, 11:41 AM Remember those July $25 silver puts someone made a paper fortune on in the silver crash earlier in May? It appears they hung on too long. A surge in the July 25s today could mean the position is being covered ... at breakeven. 1 Comment [Commodities]
- Wednesday, May 25, 2011, 12:22 PM Did we miss a QEIII announcement? The entire commodity sector is romping today. SLV +2.9%, JJC +2.4%, JJG +1.5%, USO +1.0%, JJS +3.1%. The swiss franc is having none of this "risk on" move, continuing to hit new all-time highs vs. the euro. 2 Comments [U.S. Economy, Commodities, Energy, Global & FX, On the Move]

Three lunchtime reads:
1) Treasurys: Watch out for tail risks
2) Profit margin squeeze continues to grip the economy
3) These silver growth stocks are oversold Comment! [U.S. Economy, Commodities] - Wednesday, May 18, 2011, 10:48 AM Commodities are green across the board, regaining some of their recent lost ground. Of particular note is copper, which jumps $0.14 in less than 24 hours, pulling Freeport McMoRan (FCX +3.5%) off of levels it hasn't seen since October. 1 Comment [Commodities, Energy, On the Move]
- Saturday, May 14, 2011, 8:15 AM Gold vs. silver: Reasons for investing in both still abound, but they're not the same - silver looks more like tulips lately, while gold is still gold. There are key differences: not only in supply of the metals, but the out-of-whack gold-silver price ratio. 55 Comments [Commodities, Quick Ideas]
- Thursday, May 12, 2011, 7:10 AM The Shanghai Exchange piles on silver, hiking margin rates and increasing the daily limit for price moves. Silver is at its lows of the session, -8.0% at $32.68/oz. 1 Comment [Commodities, Global & FX]
- Thursday, May 12, 2011, 6:20 AM Silver managed to hold its ground until after midnight, but it's been all red since, with July futures recently -7.5% to $32.85. Similar story with crude, though losses aren't of the same magnitude, with June futures -1.3% to $96.90. 1 Comment [Commodities, On the Move]
- Wednesday, May 11, 2011, 12:41 PM Silver now -8% to $35.40, taking it right back into last week's selloff territory after Monday and Tuesday's bounce. Key support, in the $23.50-26.50 range, is still a ways off. 1 Comment [Commodities, Top Stories, On the Move]
- Saturday, May 7, 2011, 8:20 AM How to surf the silver wave: Maybe it's time to take some profits, and wait and see, James Stewart says. He's big on inflation hedges, but you might want to take this chance to rebalance. Meanwhile, Jim Rogers gets into the Grantham camp and is bearish on silver short-term, but still bullish on (peaked) oil. 38 Comments [Commodities, Quick Ideas]
- Friday, May 6, 2011, 4:40 PM Silver suffers its worst week since March 1980 as the exchange gets tough with all traders the way it got tough with Nelson Hunt back then. The metal drops 27% as heavy speculation amidst a one way trade runs up against repeated margin hikes. The ETFs see massive volume: SLV 188M vs 57M average. ZSL 62M vs 8.5M average. 1 Comment [Commodities]
- Friday, May 6, 2011, 9:18 AM Many were quick to pooh-pooh the famously anonymous Apr. 11 $1M bet on silver puts - which is now worth a cool $7M thanks to the subsequent spike in implied volatility. "The investor didn't get this trade right," Andrew Wilkinson writes, "He or she got it spectacularly right." For others, "it could be a long day in hell before investors feel they can afford to trade silver again." 12 Comments [Commodities]
- Friday, May 6, 2011, 7:54 AM The silver romp continues unabated, with July futures now -7% to $33.70. Despite the breathtaking drops, some say the sky is not falling, and are using the pullback as an opportunity to get long at more reasonable prices. 3 Comments [Commodities, On the Move, Quick Ideas]
- Friday, May 6, 2011, 4:30 AM Crude and silver give up early overnight gains and head south again. June crude now -3.9% to $95.95. July silver -4.8% to $34.53. 1 Comment [Commodities, On the Move]
