Silver is higher at this moment... If rates move lower, then the metals would more than likely continue higher... Just my hunch... I'm not a big metals trader but it just makes sense... GZ

I couldn't resist, I listened to Michael it was a reminder the once Richest Hill on Earth (the Berkeley Pit) in Butte Montana. The most memorable field trip in school was a visit to the pit. The amount of gold and silver processed from the pit paid all of the expenses to operate that produced about 50,000 tons of copper ore per day. I remember looking way down - the dump trucks looked like ants. At one time the underground operation became the largest open pit mine in America from 1955 until 1982. The Pit produced enough copper to pave a four-lane highway, four inches thick, from Butte to beyond Salt Lake City. The 1800-foot pit is now a 900-foot toxic, heavy metal-laden filled lake.
