Investinglive analyst Adam Button points out that this is one of the most spectacular days ever for the silver market. Such a market movement is rare in commodities. We may see margin changes again this week, but we've seen this several times recently, and it hasn't stopped the market from rising. Retail investors are flocking in, and there's clearly a (but relatively small) gap in the spot market. This is definitely good news for silver miners, who will certainly have to consider selling some of their future production into the futures market, which could create some selling pressure. The silver market is much smaller than gold, and its lower liquidity is a major reason for its rapid price increase. In the long run, this will be a two-way factor, but currently it has formed an unstoppable upward trend. Setting a price at $100 would have been a major test of profit potential, but it has instead triggered a stunning rally.
