Bought Options on iShares – SLV (Silver ETF) – Jan 2011 @ $19

iShares SLV silver ETF

I recently bought some contracts in iShares Silver ETF (SLV) for Jan 2011 @ $19. Why am I now looking into silver, my reasoning behind it is that the stock market at this point may have topped and for the rest of the summer most likely will go down ( as mentioned in last article). In light of this, GOLD and SILVER have an inverse relationship to the stock market, so my speculation is that within the next six months when the stock market goes down the price of silver will be rising. The iShares Silver ETF is currently trading at $18.43, and I am speculating that it will be above $19 by years end.
