Michael Oliver, founder of Momentum Structural Analysis, reaffirms his call for silver to reach $60–$70 by the end of 2025, citing strong technical setups and emerging investor flows. He notes silver’s resilience above $38, calling recent action a healthy pause rather than a correction, and highlights a shift in market leadership toward silver and mining stocks, even as gold remains range-bound. Oliver argues that silver is grossly undervalued in real terms and poised to explode past its old $50 highs due to decades of monetary degradation and tightening supply. Regarding Bitcoin, he warns it mirrors the Nasdaq 100 and is not acting as an alternative asset, calling it vulnerable to a crash if it breaks below key momentum levels near $110,000. He concludes that as money exits a weakening stock market, the capital will increasingly flow into gold, silver, and miners—assets now just beginning their breakout phase.

J. Michael Oliver entered the financial services industry in 1975 on the Futures side, joining E.F. Hutton’s International Commodity Division, headquartered in New York City’s Battery Park. He studied under David Johnston, head of Hutton’s Commodity Division and Chairman of the COMEX. In the 1980s Mike began to develop his own momentum-based method of technical analysis. He learned early on that orthodox price chart technical analysis left many unanswered questions and too often deceived those who trusted in price chart breakouts, support/resistance, and so forth. In 1987 Mike technically anticipated and caught the Crash. It was then that he decided to develop his structural momentum tools into a full analytic methodology. In 1992 the Financial VP and head of Wachovia Bank’s Trust Department asked Mike to provide soft dollar research to Wachovia. Within a year, Mike shifted from brokerage to full-time technical research. His website is Olivermsa.com. He is also the author of The New Libertarianism: Anarcho-Capitalism.
