On an episode of Soar Financially hosted by Kai Hoffmann, Stefan Gleason joined the show to explain what is driving the near-daily precious metals headlines.
Silver topped at just under $50 oz. in 1980, and again in 2011. ChatGPT says that $45-50 oz reflects full fundamental value. I would not be surprised to see it go beyond $100.
