I do think the SVB collapse was somewhat unique but yes the fed is in a bind. They need to go up at least 2 points to bring inflation down but it causes other issues
Through five months interest on the debt is 307 billion last year for the same period it was 238 billion. If the trend continues the full year will come in close to 900 billion if rates stay where they are. Can the US budget afford a trillion a year in interest payments? The cost to finance the debt is rising
If I had charted it out from 2018 to 2022 S&P beat silver by a significant margin but in the first year or two silver outperformed. I wonder if there is a psychological effect that in the aftermath of a declining stock market and bank failures people trust metals when they start investing again, but that wears off over a period of stability? One problem is recessions aren't that common so there isn't a lot of data to pull from
