I'm of the opinion that silver is not taking a lead but a cue from gold which in turn is taking a cue from the state of the fiat money and a flight to safety & profit.

Silver will take the lead but not for a while. It will do so once the demand far outstrips supply which for silver is an order of magnitude more favourable than for gold. The ordinary investor just has to be woken up to that fact. Once he does fasten your seat belt tight.
