Dec. 2004: Silver falls from $8.00 to $6.60. A 17.5% correction is only 2 weeks.
Jun-Jul 2005: Silver falls from $7.55 to $6.80. A 10% for the summer.

And then silver had a biggie…
July-Oct 2008: Silver falls from $19.40 to $8.85. A 54% correction in under 3 months.
And don’t forget…
Feb-Mar 2009: Silver falls from $14.50 to $12.70. A 12% correction in 3 weeks.
June 2009: Silver falls from $16.00 to $13.70. A 14% correction in 20 days.

Silver is an high alpha play over gold.
It will go to $1000+

Has this SILVER correction completed? Historically, these corrections don't last long.

JFF i view you as someone who is very knowledgeable about trading in the commodities markets. Do you really think that silver will hit $1000, what do you think it will take to get there, and when?
I don't view myself as someone who is knowledgeable about the markets and personally I can't see silver reaching that level. Well maybe it could in a hundred years.
Name me one investment where you gain at least 50% the second you purchase it and never have a chance to lose the initial investment.
