Silver prices are exhibiting a notable upward trend, propelled by increased capital flows into Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) and growing speculation that the Federal Reserve may soon ease its monetary policy. This surge puts silver on track for a second consecutive week of gains.
Silver ETFs have witnessed substantial inflows, with the volume in just four days surpassing the total weekly inflows since July. This strong inflow indicates investor confidence in silver, despite concerns about its elevated valuation.
Markets widely anticipate that the Federal Reserve will reduce interest rates at its upcoming meeting. This expectation is supporting silver prices, as lower interest rates diminish the opportunity cost of holding precious metals that do not generate yield.
Analysts at Citigroup, including Max Layton, suggest that silver prices could reach $62 per ounce in the next three months, driven by Federal Reserve rate cuts, robust investment demand, and physical supply shortages.
Supply and demand play a crucial role in determining silver prices. Demand for silver has exceeded mine production for five consecutive years, suggesting a structural deficit in the market. Furthermore, silver is used in a variety of industrial applications, including electronics and solar energy, further increasing its demand.
Hebe Chen, an analyst at Vantage Markets, indicates that the silver price surge suggests it is no longer just a "sidekick" to gold. Markets are now recognizing that silver faces structural scarcity and rapid growth in industrial demand, in addition to its role as a safe haven asset.
