Legendary Trader Warns Silver Bulls Before Metal Turns Into Financial Hangover

KEY POINTS

  • •Peter Brandt, a commodities trader with 50 years experience, cautioned silver investors on December 27, 2025.
  • •Silver prices soared by over 150% in 2025 before dropping from $80 to about $70 due to margin hikes by CME.
  • •Brandt criticized younger traders' confidence and insisted silver’s price swings reflect money games, not supply shortages.

Peter Brandt, a 50-year commodities OG with 840,000 X followers, played financial babysitter to silver bulls on December 27, 2025, congratulating them for riding silver’s 150% rally from sub-$4 in the ’70s to a wild $80 an ounce spike—before it dipped to $70 faster than your crypto portfolio after a tweet. He warned margins at CME shot up Monday, forcing traders to shove more cash onto the table like an overzealous gambler. Brandt also roasted Gen Z basement traders who think they know silver better than him, calling their confidence 'laughing-while-crying emoji' worthy. Bottom line: silver’s epic rollercoaster feels less about supply and more about money games and painful hangovers to come.
