Its been such a ride, I'm so glad I got in even if late. I'm reading now about others whom bought in more than 7mths and even 2 years ago. I cannot imagine what their portfolios would look like.

I sold 25% today, to realise some gains but I'm still invested.

Is this not a meme now?&#34; he said in the post.&#34;Are there industrial uses for silver? Sure, of course. But nothing has changed about that in the past month to make the price go up 65%. We live in an investing world where, when things move quickly, everyone piles on at the same time. No barriers at all,&#34; Antonelli continued.Others said comparing silver to a meme stock wasn&#39;t that much of a stretch.

Also, it has long had a sizable following among individual investors.&#34;It doesn&#39;t share the &#39;us vs. them&#39; dynamic that motivated much of the early meme-stock rush, but we do have a momentum-driven frenzy that appears to have blown past any prior perception of fundamentals and has captured the public&#39;s imagination,&#34; said Steve Sosnick, chief strategist at Interactive Brokers.As silver&#39;s rally has piqued individual investors&#39; interest, volume in popular silver-linked ETFs exploded on Monday to the highest levels on record, according to Dow Jones Market Data.
