Silver Prices Get Their Snapback Rally. Silver Stocks to Watch: SLW, HL, AGQ, SLV, PAAS, EXK, SSRI, GPL

Wall Street signAfter getting pummeled for multiple sessions, silver prices are finally starting to get their legs back under them. Also the hint of QE3 or further easing is getting the silver bulls excited once again. As the EU continues to fumble about for a solution to the growing sovereign debt contagion, most analysts expect a return to the rally heyday for both gold and silver.

Currently silver is up 67 cents to nearly $28 per ounce. Silver watches are waiting to see if it it can reclaim the $30 level and push higher out of that old range it was in before this pullback.
