Current Silver Prices: Silver is trading around $58.50 an ounce, just below its recent all-time high, as traders anticipate a Federal Reserve rate cut. The metal has more than doubled in value this year, significantly outpacing gold's 60% increase.
Market Dynamics: Tightening inventories in London and China, along with strong industrial demand and a recent short squeeze, have contributed to silver's price momentum. One-month lease rates in London are near 6%, indicating a scarcity of physical supply.
ETF Inflows and Impact: Silver-backed ETFs experienced significant inflows, with nearly 590 tons added last week, leading to increased demand for physical silver. This surge in ETF activity is reinforcing market tightness and could create logistical challenges for issuers.
Investor Behavior: As physical silver becomes harder to obtain, some investors are shifting their focus to silver mining stocks, which have seen increased interest. This trend allows investors to benefit from the silver rally without relying on the constrained metal market.
