It's always a case of hindsight; in hindsight I should've bought gold in the mid 2000s and sell around 2012. In hindsight I should've bought Apple, Nintendo, Tesla 15 years ago.
But it's always a gamble. If you bought silver in 2011-2012, its value would still be below what you paid for it.
If it's peace of mind, just put your money in an index fund and forget about it for a few decades. The economy, broadly speaking, usually goes up over a long enough timescale.
