Miners are supposed to be more volatile than the metal. Today's (2/1/2021) pre-market movement has the silver price moving more than the miners. That's backwards and a clear sign of a frenzy. Big risk, big reward (or loss).
Someone must be influencing the price wildly... oh wait... Everyone, please welcome WallStreetBets to the silver market! I assume the media attention has garnered even more people to the WallStreetBets team. This could be amazing to watch!
