Silver markets initially fell during the trading session on Friday but turned around to rally yet again. We are far too overstretched to be buyers now.

Silver markets have pulled back a bit during the trading session on Friday, only to find buyers again near the $22.50 level. Quite frankly, this is a market that has gotten way ahead of itself, so I have no interest in trying to get cute and buy it up here. I think that value will eventually return to this market and when it does, we should get a nice opportunity to pick up silver “on the cheap”, perhaps somewhere closer to the $22 level, if not the $21 level. We clearly have a potential support level in the $20 level now, so I like the idea of going long on dips, but I certainly do not want to “chase the trade” all the way up here.

I think that longer term we probably go looking towards the $26 level, with of course the $25 level offering a significant amount of psychological resistance. The US dollar is the main culprit in this trade, as the US dollar is getting hammered by the Federal Reserve. With that in mind I think it is only a matter of time before we get some type of pullback, only to see more people flood into this market. Breaking above the $20 level was a major turn of events and should not be overlooked. Over the longer term, I think that we are in the beginning of a massive run higher in the silver, gold, and platinum markets.
