less volatility

"Less Volatile" is not something I would use describing silver. It is volatility on steroids.

Just today:

Gold -3.52%

Silver -6.16%

Volatility isn't based on a one-day swing. It is based on a long term average. Silver outperformed gold on the recent swing up, it will naturally underperform it on a trend down. They move together, albeit at different rates.

Big money still prefers gold because it is easier to store.

The numbers I saw were gold -5.13% and silver -7.53% for the day. Bloomberg.
