No one really knows where prices for ANYTHING will go. That's very hard to predict, just like the stock market is hard to predict.

The reason metals are so highly priced right now is because everything is so messed up. Bad economy, bad political climate.

Will things get worse, therefore driving metal prices higher?

My opinion is yes, probably.

But who knows?
