CME Hikes Silver Margins By 17%: 4th Hike In 8 Trading Days

Right. If it does correct to 30 I'm a buyer too. The long range trend has to be up, but no chart can go vertical for long. As I say, silver is a commodity, not a stock, and it acts like a commodity-- which means sell-offs are inevitable and sharp when they happen. I would not buy silver today. For that matter I would not buy gold today either, for the same reasons. I'm happy to leave some for the next guy, and let him worry about the coming sell-off. The current spike could be the blow-off top already for all I know.

I hope you all read my comment from last Friday afternoon when silver was at 48. Little did I know I was only hours away. Right now it is at 39. It could find support around 36-37, or go to 30 as I suggested last week. If you are looking for a bargain, it's your call.

Do you (or anyone else for that matter) have any experience with Kitco? Are they trustworthy? Do you have any suggestions? Silver U.S. coins (non-collectible types) seem like a good idea...people trust them.
