Most of the time... SLV appears to move with the market.. but just this Friday, with the market continuing downward, Gold went up.. .as did SLV. . I agree.. that in the long run (years?), I can't imagine precious metals and other raw materials and commodities NOT doing some serious rising.. +++
About 9 months ago we had a number of people saying they can't imagine precious metals and other raw materials and commodities falling. And just couple months ago we had a number of people saying they can't imagine that gas prices would not hit $5-6/gal by this summer. We shall see.
