The silver market continues to be a white knuckle ride with volatility being the watch word of the day. The oscillations can be gut-wrenching as we have warned about many times. However, if you have the stomach for it the silver space can be profitable for you. As regular readers will know, our philosophy has been to acquire physical silver as a top priority, followed by a small section of good quality mining shares and finally for those of a more adventurous nature a well thought out strategy in the options sector can give your portfolio a boost.
