UPDATE: Silver Breaks Out Above $21, What’s Next For Investors?

The silver price did push through that level and closed near the highs of the day. Then in Asian trading last night, traders continued to pile into the shiny metal, pushing it up even further. However, when silver reached the $21 level, it consolidated around $20.90 before pushing through once again:
