Actually, silver is going up in value relative to other commodities as well. It's both.
Whereas gold is more of a benchmark monetary metal.

It might be a bubble some day, but we aren't anywhere close to that yet. Here's the thing to understand, when silver hit $50 in 1980, that was an actual bubble. In 2011 (devalued) dollars, it would have to hit $450+ to equal that. It isn't even at $50 yet. The ultimate top is a long ways off.
Another way to determine bubbles is by doing ratio pricing. For example, is the silver/oil ratio out of whack right now? No, not at all. In fact, the ratio has been higher many times in the past several years (ie. silver was slightly pricier relative to oil than it is now).
The current ratio is 0.405 - which is far below the 1.0+ of the 1980 bubble.
Yes it is no longer "cheap", but there is no bubble right now.
