Who would short this, not least ahead of Christmas ?

New hist’ high.

New hist’ high. Soaring toward the proverbial moon.
With a SpaceX IPO (likely Sept’2026), I’m guessing this will be >$200

notable silver ETF: SLV, 15min

I could have gone long last Friday, but no… I’m overly cautious.
Instead, now I have to wait for a cooling wave.
