you often link silver to the CCI basket, and note it's dual personality as a both a semi-monetary metal, and as a commodity, but if I am not mistaken, you link it more to the latter.
I closely follow the gold:silver ratio as I do trade it.
Although through the medium and long term, that ratio is all over the place, it is usually quite a stable ratio in the short term, in other words, too tight for me to trade for weeks on end until there is a step change.
So, the correlation to gold in the short term is very strong, e.g. we seem to have been at 51.x now for over a week or so, regardless the volatility in the metals intraday during that period.
And of course, silver has its own dynamics which can lead it to do its own thing from time to time, like in April 2011.
If there are any updated TA or market insights into this GSR ratio, these will always be much appreciated.
