Silver Surges Up 16% In US$ In Month As Breaks Out Above $18

Silver is another 0.5% higher today after yesterday’s 3% gains, when silver flew through resistance at the $18 level to close at $18.26/oz. Silver has surged by similar amounts in euros and by 22% in beleaguered UK sterling.

Silver in USD – 10 Years

The rally for silver yesterday and today was more impressive than gold’s and saw prices at their highest since mid-September of 2014. Silver has now surged 16% in a month and the next level of resistance is $21.40/oz which silver touched in July 2014.

“Silver looks very bullish now and our clients are allocating to it in a big way,” we told Dow Jones Marketwatch: “Silver is like gold on steroids when it gets going due to the very small size of the physical silver market versus stocks, bonds and even the gold market.”
