In a recent interview with Liberty and Finance, the esteemed precious metals analyst David Morgan, widely known as the “Silver Guru,” delivered a compelling analysis suggesting that silver prices are on the cusp of a significant surge. Drawing upon his extensive knowledge of the precious metals market, Morgan highlighted the current lack of substantial upside resistance for silver, hinting at a potential rapid upward movement that has yet to materialize fully.
“I mean, we’re high enough in the silver price for it to have very little upside resistance and to be able to just move, move, and move some more, and it hasn’t started yet.”
Morgan believes that broader market dynamics and the inherent appeal of silver as a monetary and industrial metal will eventually draw them back in.
