Silver finally hits $100 an ounce - and some experts say that's just the beginning

Silver prices have surged to $100 an ounce for the first time in history, driven by strong demand and supply constraints. Experts suggest that this may be just the beginning of a significant upward trend, with potential targets reaching $120 by 2026. The market is characterized by high volatility, with daily price swings expected to exceed 10%. Factors such as geopolitical tensions and interest-rate cuts are contributing to silver's appeal as an accessible alternative to gold, which is also reaching record highs.

PRECIOUS-Silver tops $100 an ounce for the first time

Spot silver prices have reached $100 an ounce for the first time, driven by strong demand and buying momentum. This surge is attributed to investors seeking safe-haven assets amid geopolitical turmoil and expectations of lower interest rates from the U.S. Federal Reserve. Silver has increased over 200% since Trump began his second term, with ongoing refining challenges and a supply shortage further contributing to its price rise.

When Will Gold Crack $5,000/oz?

Gold and silver prices have surged, with gold nearing $5,000 per ounce and silver approaching $100. Geopolitical tensions, particularly surrounding Greenland, initially drove demand for safe havens. However, after President Trump's de-escalation of threats, the market's reaction was muted. The weakening dollar and rising US yields indicate growing distrust in the global reserve currency. Analysts note silver's industrial demand is outpacing supply, while geopolitical risks remain high. Upcoming events, including the FOMC meeting, may influence the continuation of this trend in precious metals.
