US Top News and Analysis | Parabolic AI rally has bulls eyeing a comeback for this one-time meme metal trade

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

The article discusses how the AI‑driven market rally is shifting attention to silver, a “meme metal” that has recently spiked 7% to its highest level since March, while copper hit a record $6.50. Both metals are crucial for the thermal conductivity and wiring in data‑center hardware that powers AI demand, but retail interest has gravitated more toward silver. Options activity on the iShares Silver ETF (SLV) reflects bullish sentiment, with call buying outpacing puts more than two‑to‑one and over 90,000 calls versus just 31,000 puts. One notable trade involved selling 1,000 $70‑strike puts for $259,000 and using the proceeds to buy roughly 1,900 $80‑strike calls, creating a $1 million exposure that bets on an 11% price rise over the next 5½ weeks. Despite SLV’s 300% surge since early 2025, it has lagged behind the broader semiconductor rally this year, as interest‑rate dynamics and commodity volatility have weighed on precious‑metal performance.

I was delighted to sit down with Sotirios Alphanis from State Library Victoria last month to chat about diverse #speech data, #language, and the implications of unbridled #data scraping by #AI companies, and how the work we're doing at @mozilladatacollective is providing an ethical alternative for fair data exchange.

Huge thanks to Dilan Gunawardana from SLVlabs for the significant production effort here.

'The acting State Library Victoria management are rushing dozens of changes to library operations that will degrade and diminish core library services. These will gut the reference library staff (from 21 down to 10) and replace them with “self service” options; and pour taxpayer money into expensive “digital innovation” projects and “experiences” that few people use.'
