The first retail wave must have max pain before be bull market starts. Metals are NOT a low risk sure thing investment and the big players are not scared of any "silver squeeze" as of yet. Silver will have an amazing bull run sometime in the coming years, but there will be massive downdrafts along the way. The metals hustlers have been saying the same things for the last 40+ years. The dollar is dead, money printing is out of control, there are shortages coming. Sadly, the internet has give this same chicken little stories an new life to shill to a new generation. Like I said, hopefully the new buyers will finally have lucky dumb luck timing.
