Don't Let Gold's Record Run Distract You From Silver's "Explosive Potential" Right Now
Silver prices are trading at their highest levels in 14 years
Gold, which has surpassed its inflation-adjusted highs from the 1980s, silver still has a long way to go to reach its inflation-adjusted high of $209.71.

Silver prices have outperformed gold so far this year, even as gold continues to climb to fresh record highs.
As gold prices have climbed to new records, silver has emerged from the shadows — outshining the yellow metal with its own gain and reaching its highest price in 14 years.
"Silver is finally stepping out of gold's shadow," said Nate Miller, vice president of product development at Amplify ETFs.
Silver also remains undervalued relative to gold, he said. The gold-silver ratio, presenting the amount of silver ounces that would buy an ounce of gold, stands at just over 85, compared with the long-term average of around 65.
That suggests "silver has room to run," Miller said. Investors are expressing this view through silver mining equities, he said, noting that the Amplify Junior Silver Miners exchange-traded fund was up more than 100% year to date, "reflecting strong momentum and renewed interest in silver's upside potential."
With a gain of about 47% year to date as of Tuesday, silver has outpaced gold's climb of 41% so far this year, according to a Dow Jones Market Data analysis of FactSet data.
