Notes -
Is right now (after a historic crash) a good time to buy in on silver and gold? The underlying logic still seems sound (needed for electronics, inflation/weakening USD, increased international drama)
You invest in Silver/Gold because you want the physical, hard metal on hand as a way to arbitrage against the dollar collapsing.
Which is probably not what you're talking about. Personally, in terms of speculating/daytrading, going by the past year or so, Silver and Gold are being affected by some seriously whonky market effects and powerful trading groups working in the background. Silver was 30 dollars and ounce a year or so ago, and it peaked around 114 just the other day ago. That's not normal.
God, I wish I was in daytrading. Literally right as I was discussing things with my brother as to how the bubble on silver and gold were going to pop, it was crashing.
...you know, looking at the market for gold right now, I'll go off on a branch and make a prediction - we're going to see the price continue to dip. 4,841.60 as of today, we'll see what happens in the next couple of days.
