* Hi-Ho Silver! Seems to be the rallying cry for the day

* The last podcast I recorded I talked about the breakout in silver and I actually regretted the fact that I didn't get a chance to talk about silver during my CNBC interview

* On my last podcast I mentioned how strong silver had been looking and it held up extremely well in the gold selloff during the prior few days

* Sure enough, we had a big breakout again today

* Silver was above $17 earlier today, the first time it has been that high all year

* Gold is still well below the highs, it needs to rally about $30 to get back to its high for this move

* I mentioned on the last podcast that I though the strength in silver was a good leading indicator for both gold and silver

* And I talked about all the traders who have been shorting silver, that had been a popular trade when the gold and silver ratio was breaking down, I thought that it made no sense to short silver

* To me it was a much better trade to buy silver when it's as cheap as it's ever been relative to gold

* This is good constructive action, in fact, the gold stocks are at new highs for the year

* The GDX, as I speak, is up 4% on the day; it's above $23 - this is the high for the year

* The juniors, GDXJ, that index is up over 6% -  today! This is a new 52-week high
