Consult the Hunt family....
To match the highs the Hunt brothers drove silver up to, adjusted for inflation, we’d see it hit $200.
What happened with the Hunt silver rush bears to relationship to today’s silver rush. Silver and gold are now seen as the most liquid hedge against devaluation of fiat money. If the dollar goes down or becomes worthless any silver or gold you hold almost certainly will increase in value to offset any dollar purchasing power you lost. It also works the other way. If the purchasing power of your dollar increases then the value of your gold and silver is near certain to decrease. It really is a lose/win situation.
