The AI trade has taken many forms this year, from surging semiconductors to record-setting ETFs and a fresh breakout in the Mag-7 stocks.
Now, traders are setting their sights on an old variation of that theme that has sat out the most recent leg of the rally: silver.Silver prices surged 7% Monday to the highest since March and copper added 3.3% to $6.50, a new record. Both metals are used for their thermal conductivity and electrical wiring in data-centers crucial to handling AI demand, but silver appears to have captured more retail interest.Trading in the iShares Silver ETF (SLV) followed suit with options action leaning heavily bullish. More than twice as many calls traded than puts, with more calls bought than sold and more than 90,000 calls bought compared to just 31,000 puts bought.
