Why Are Silver Prices Rising?

Silver prices are consistently rising due to several factors. These include strong industrial demand (particularly for green tech/solar), supply shortages, and global uncertainty (such as Middle East tensions), which has led investors to make "safe haven" purchases.

Expectations of a Federal Reserve interest rate cut and silver's generally higher volatility than gold are also supporting silver prices. The US has designated silver as an essential mineral, increasing its strategic importance. Consequently, demand has increased in the electronics, AI, and defense sectors.
