  • Record Retail Bets on Silver Rally and Crash Drive Market Frenzy
    January 27, 2026, 2:41 PM EST. Retail investors have pushed the iShares Silver Trust (SLV) ETF to a record $171 million net inflow in one day, nearly doubling the 2021 silver squeeze peak. Silver surged nearly 6% on Monday, up more than 52% in 2026 alone, surpassing tech stocks like Nvidia as retail traders' hottest investment. Vanda analyst Ashwin Bhakre called silver the new epicenter of retail fervor, with trading volumes 11.55 times normal. Coeur Mining and Hecla Mining shares jumped roughly 40%. However, leveraged bets on silver crashing also spiked sharply, indicating a "two-front war" among investors. Some experts label the rapid moves as "meme stock trade" behavior, suggesting caution amid the volatility in this precious metals rally.
