I just looked at the silver situation again, and honestly, it's pretty wild right now. At the beginning of the year, the price was over $121, then a crash of 30% in two days – that doesn’t happen often. Now it’s hovering around $84, but the question remains: what’s next?



The silver price forecast is currently highly divided. On one side: the market has had a real supply deficit for five years. Mine production is stagnating, but demand is growing – mainly due to solar panels, electric vehicles, and AI infrastructure. These are real structural drivers, not speculation. According to the Silver Institute, this will continue to increase until 2030.

On the other side: the stronger US dollar is killing international demand. And that’s exactly what happened after the new Fed leadership took over. Many analysts are uncertain – Citigroup predicts $150 in three months, others expect $50. This shows how uncertain the situation is.

What I find interesting: physical demand from Asia was intense. In Hong Kong, silver bars were sold out within hours. That indicates real scarcity, not just trader games. But whether this leads to new highs or if the dollar will push everything down again – that’s the million-dollar question.

My personal silver price forecast? I think the potential is there, but volatility will remain brutal. For long-term investors, that could be an opportunity, but in the short term, you shouldn’t let the fluctuations drive you crazy. The fundamentals look bullish, but the market is currently too emotional for reliable predictions.
