To expound on this a bit, my buddy was telling me that silver has historically maintained a value approximately 1/15 the value of gold. As of the current price of gold, that would require silver to reach approximately $114/oz. to hit that 1/15 mark. The cost of one ounce is roughly $35 right now. Is it reasonable to assume silver will reach upwards of $114 in the next few years assuming gold keeps rising (or even stays the same)?
