Lots of upside on silver, because there's lots of upside on gold, because there's lots of upside on all the commodities. In a new commodity mega-cycle, mainly due to increasing power draw needed for AI, EVs, data storage, and similar trends.

Looking at the 3-year chart, it has broken down. But there's a pretty good level of support coming in. Plus fundamental reasons for owning silver -- could be a good inflation or currency hedge. Not a bad position to take advantage of the old resistance / new support level.
(Note the short timeframe.) Thinks it will go to old highs. He's been buying the producers. A better trade than gold right now, as gold's a bit overdone.
