Central banks bought a record amount of gold last quarter as they diversified foreign-currency reserves, with a large chunk of the purchases coming from as yet unknown buyers.

If recent data -- and some little-noticed correspondence between the Comex futures exchange and the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission -- are any indication, we could be in for a new silver squeeze that will finally upset the rigged "paper silver" game.

But the next coming move to $50 in silver is much more likely to not only exceed the past two highs, but also remain far higher for far longer than previously.
