How Macro Easing and Physical Tightness Are Repricing SilverSilver prices have surged to unprecedented highs as 2025 draws to a close. In early December, silver pushed above USD 58 per ounce, marking a nominal all-time high (surpassing the 1980 and 2011 peaks) and nearly doubling in value from the start of the year. This extraordinary rally underscores silver’s dual nature as both an industrial commodity and a safe-haven asset, driven by a perfect storm of robust demand, persistent supply deficits, and supportive macroeconomic conditions. Macroeconomic Shifts and a Softer U.S. Dollar Monetary policy tailwinds have bolstered silver’s ascent.  After keeping interest rates at a restrictive high throughout most of 2025, the Federal Reserve began easing with a 25 bps rate cut in October, and markets widely anticipate another cut at the upcoming December 9–10 meeting. CME FedWatch shows 86% odds of a December rate reduction as against last month’s 69% probability, following recent weak jobs data, with jobless claims diving to a multi-year low. Analysts believe private investors increased allocations after those cuts, considering silver a higher-beta alternative to gold. Source: CME FedWatch ADP’s private data showed a drop of 32,000 roles in November, with wage growth also on a downward trend. The prospect of Fed easing has weakened the U.S. dollar and lowered bond yields, enhancing the appeal of non-yielding assets like silver. Earlier this year, traders rushed massive volumes of silver into U.S. vaults earlier in order to avoid tariffs, and while this temporarily ballooned U.S. inventories, it drained liquidity from overseas markets and stoked fears of shortages.  This time around, tariffs risk has increased owing to silver being included in the critical minerals list, making fear an additional driver along with macro dynamics, even as industrial demand is not growing as fast. Physical Market Tightness and Industrial Demand Silver’s recent price surge is being driven by an exceptionally tight physical market. Global demand is again set to outpace supply in 2025, marking the fifth consecutive year of deficit. Even with mine output holding steady, the Silver Institute projects a 95-million-ounce shortfall, bringing the cumulative deficit since 2021 to nearly 820 million ounces. By October, London, the world’s main physical trading hub, saw heavy drawdowns in vault stockpiles as metal was shipped out to meet surging U.S. and Indian demand, leading to a collapse in free-float inventory. Silver lease rates in London spiked above 11%, an extraordinarily high level, reflecting the urgency to obtain physical metal.  Meanwhile, a geographic dislocation emerged. So much silver was shipped into U.S. COMEX warehouses this year (ahead of tariffs) that record inventories accumulated – over 530 million ounces by October.  Source: DataTrack Since then, with tariff risks alleviated, the metal began shifting to London again, seeing as the spot there was now higher than in the United States as of 04/Dec, COMEX inventories are back to mid-March levels.  Crucially, industrial demand remains a strong pillar beneath the silver market, even if it isn’t growing all that fast. Even though high prices have prompted some thrifting, where less silver is used per device, total industrial usage is still projected to reach roughly 665 million ounces in 2025, 2% below last year’s record. Green technologies continue to be a major silver driver. For perspective, solar energy alone likely accounted for on the order of 200 Moz of silver demand in 2024, and global EV manufacturing is estimated to add another 90 Moz in 2025. With new mining projects projected to add only about 44 Moz of additional annual supply over the next 5-10 years, these industrial needs ensure that any demand surge hits a supply wall.  While current industrial growth numbers may not look promising, it is more about the inelasticity of demand, which is still being met with persistent deficits. With investor buying on the rise, the chances of supply hiccups only increase. Investor Flows and Market Positioning Favour Further Gains By early November, global silver ETP holdings had swollen by roughly 18% YTD, putting total holdings near all-time highs. Importantly, about half of these ETP holdings are stored in London, meaning a large portion of the world’s investment silver became effectively tied up in vaults.  Physical investment demand is robust as well. India, the world’s largest silver importer, saw buoyant buying even at record rupee prices, with continued accumulation of silver on price dips.  The iShares SLV ETF netted inflows of USD 1,227.6 million over the past 3 months. After starting the year above 100:1, the gold: silver ratio fell to sub-72 by December, the lowest in over a year. This reflects silver vastly outperforming gold in percentage terms, though the ratio remains above long-term averages of about 67, which is expected to be hit by June 2026. CME QuikStrike shows that the options contract expiring late February has the second largest OI as of today, following the Dec/25 contract. Source: CME QuikStrike For SOH6, the strike-wise open interest shows a concentration of much higher call OI at OTM strike levels than for OTM puts. Overall put-call ratio for this contract is outrightly bullish at 0.54, which is lower than the average of all expiries (0.68). Source: CME QuikStrike The last time the gold-silver ratio was this low, after having retreated from a peak, was in December 2020. During that period of GSR dipping from current levels to the long-term average, silver futures rallied by 21.8%. The P&L for entering a long futures trade during that period would be as follows: Contract size : 5,000 troy ounces Entry : 25.00 Exit : 29.40 Price move : 29.40 − 25.00 = $4.40/oz Dollar P&L per contract : 4.40 × 5,000 oz = 22,000 USD per contract Given the lower bound of our ETA on mean reversion is 49 days, selecting a contract that expires in Feb/2026 is useful. Investors can also utilise CME Micro Silver futures, which offer smaller notional positions and greater flexibility. Each Micro contract is priced in USD per ounce and represents 1,000 ounces of silver, compared to 5,000 ounces for the standard contract. This content is sponsored.

Si1! - A "Short" Silver Heads-UpWhat we see on these two charts are two different Andrews Pitchforks. - same time window - different time period - different pitchfork placement The left chart maps the pendulum swings. The right chart maps the real swings. LEFT CHART The market has almost reached the maximum stretch point, arriving at the U-MLH. A reversal toward the centerline is very likely, as the market tends to seek balance after such an extreme stretch. Classic mean reversion. RIGHT CHART Here we see that silver has reached the centerline - the classic 80% target for a pitchfork trader. From here, the market can break/zoom through the centerline, retest it, and continue upward. In the LEFT chart, this would correspond to a larger stretch toward Warning Line 1. Or the market may turn at the centerline because it has found its balance, which in the LEFT chart would confirm the stretch-and-turn scenario. Either way, caution is warranted. I would at least take partial profits (50% is always good) and treat myself to an enjoyable Christmas party! Anyone who would like to learn more about pitchforks, please read my bio here on TradingView. Happy profits to you Silver Arrows §8-)

Silver pump vs the Algo - Who will win?COMEX:SI1! COMEX_MINI:SIL1! TVC:SILVER The algorithm has reached a terminal exhaustion state at the 4.0 Standard Deviation Macro-Extension effectively completing the parabolic expansion cycle initiated from the 2024 lows. The current price action represents a 'Distribution Node' at the 60.00 psychological event horizon where the Smart Money is actively offloading inventory into late retail buyers before initiating a high-velocity repricing event to the 54.020 algorithmic equilibrium. ​ Entry: 58.850 (Market Execution / Sell Limit) Stop loss: 60.150 (1.300 points) Take profit: 54.020 (4.830 points) Risk to reward ratio: 3.71R ​ The Opportunity The Monthly chart reveals the absolute truth: Price has struck the 4.0 Standard Deviation projection. In the realm of IPDA, this is the 'Statistical Extremity'—a zone where the probability of continued vertical expansion collapses to near zero and the probability of a mean reversion increases exponentially. The market has left a massive 'Liquidity Void' between 54.00 and 58.00. This is not structural support; it is thin air. The algorithm abhors this vacuum. The 54.020 level identified is not merely a support level; it is the 'Fair Value' origin of the final impulse leg. The market must return here to close the circuit and validate the breakout. ​ The Entry Entering short at the 58.850 region capitalizes on the 'bull trap' formed by the failure to displace above 59.50. The 8-hour chart shows a loss of momentum and the formation of a 'Rounded Top' distribution profile. The algorithm is currently holding price up solely to induce 'Fear of Missing Out' (FOMO) longs. Once the Asian/London liquidity is swept, the floor will be removed, and the price will seek the path of least resistance: down through the vacuum. ​ The Invalidation The bearish causal chain is ontologically corrupted if price achieves a daily close above the 60.150 Omega Point. A breach of this level would imply that the market has entered a 'Hyper-Inflationary' discovery mode, ignoring standard deviation constraints. This would shift the probability manifold to the Primary Antithetical Chain targeting the 62.00-65.00 vector. ​ Key Trajectory Waypoints Target 1: 57.200 | Type: Immediate Structural Low | Probability: 85% | ETA: 24-48 Hours Target 2: 55.500 | Type: 1.5 SD / Mid-Void | Probability: 70% | ETA: End of Week Target 3: 54.020 | Type: The Great Rebalance | Probability: 55% | ETA: 1-2 Weeks The Shadow Reality A 20% probability exists for the antithetical reality: The Flag Continuation. In this scenario, the 58.00 level acts as a 'High Tight Flag' support, and the market consolidates sideways to burn time before one final thrust to 61.00. This reality is confirmed if price refuses to trade below 57.80 for 48 hours.

Why Silver Is Reaching New High?Why Is Silver Reaching New Highs?” There are two key reasons for this: First, it is due to de-dollarization. At this juncture, there are no other currencies ready to take over as the dominant reserve currency. Therefore, the market is turning to precious metals like gold and silver. We can also observe that each time the dollar trends lower, precious metals tend to move in the opposite direction. Second, why is silver gaining momentum over gold this time? While gold is still trading below its October high, silver has already broken above it with strong momentum. These are the two questions we will be discussing today.

4000 year old money EuphoriaKudos to my good friends that have patiently waited a decade for this ancient money to finally yield great returns. But it's my job here to urge caution and share the lessons of historical finance. First, let's try to "value" silver historically: Code of Hammurabi (1750 BC): Minimum wage for common labor; 8 grains of silver (0.65 g) per day (0.021 oz) Classical Athens – Periclean period (~450–430 BC): Unskilled; 1 drachma = ~4.3 g per day (0.138 oz) Skilled; 1.5–2 drachmae (0.21–0.28 oz) Roman Republic (Early Empire – Augustus to ~200 AD): Legionary; 2–2.3 g net per day (0.064–0.074 oz) Urban unskilled; 3.5 g per day (0.1125 oz) Roman Empire – Diocletian’s Edict (301 AD): Farm labor; 0.5-1g per day (0.016-0.032 oz) Sassanid Persia (~500–600 AD) 1 silver drachm ≈ 4 g per day (0.129 oz) Medieval England – Statute of Labourers (1351, post-Black Death): 2-3 pence per day; 1 penny = 1.2-1.4g silver (0.077-0.135 oz) United States – Early Federal period (1790–1800) Common laborer $0.50–$1.00 per day; U.S. silver dollar = 24.06 g silver (0.39-0.66 oz) United States – Coinage Act era average wage (1790s–1830s) Unskilled labor ~$0.75–$1.25 per day (0.58–0.97 oz) Throughout most of monetary history when silver was actually money, one day of common or semi-skilled labor bought roughly 0.05 to 0.28 troy ounces of silver (with 0.10–0.15 oz being the most common sweet spot in stable empires). Today (Dec 3, 2025), with silver trading at $57.50/oz, an 8-hour low-skill U.S. wage at $17–$20/hr buys ≈ 2.37–2.78 troy ounces of silver per day — 10–25× higher than almost any pre-1900 historical benchmark. So one could interpret this historic perspective in two ways: Silver still has enormous upside to reapproach historical labor norms; An 8-hour U.S. production worker (~$31.50/hr) currently buys ≈ 4.4 troy oz per day — that is 4–7× higher than even the richest silver-standard societies ever paid free citizens, and 200–800× higher than the worst monetary collapses. For today’s wage to buy only the historical average of 0.12 oz/day, silver would need to trade around $2,100/oz. We no longer pay wages in silver, so the comparison is meaningless; Labor is now paid in fiat, and silver is primarily an industrial/hedge asset. Monetary demand is only a fraction of what it once was, and productivity, technology, and energy inputs have exploded. A direct 1:1 labor peg is never coming back. Now, let's dive back into the realm of historical analysis that is most relevant. Much sooner than 4000 years ago (11 actually) silver had a great "yeet" which saw it rise bottom to peak by +493% (the current rise is at 412%). However, the drawdown from the 2011 high was -72% If we go back half a century ago to 1976-1982 Silver rose +919% only to fall -88%. The takeaway should not be that the rise in Silver might end here or anywhere. We just don't have enough data but we can infer historical parallels. Volatility is often a gift to investors but in silver, a 4000 year old money, it remains a double edged sword (as it may have been used to buy them back then). Trade wisely.

Silver Futures at All Time HighsThe Silver Futures market has experienced an extraordinary, historic surge over the past year, with prices more than doubling since the start of 2025 and hitting new all-time highs above $59 per troy ounce in recent trading. This aggressive rally is fueled by a dual-catalyst narrative. On one hand, silver is benefiting from the same safe-haven demand driving gold, particularly amid global economic uncertainty and expectations of Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, which traditionally boost non-yielding assets. On the other, the metal's price action is heavily underpinned by a severe physical supply deficit. With mining output flat and industrial demand—particularly from the accelerating green energy transition rising sharply, inventories have dwindled, causing the cost to lease silver to soar and forcing an intense focus on physical delivery for futures contracts. This exceptional outperformance by silver has profoundly impacted the Gold-to-Silver Ratio, which measures how many ounces of silver it takes to buy one ounce of gold. The ratio began 2025 at elevated levels (near 100:1 or higher), suggesting silver was historically cheap relative to gold. However, as silver's price surged by over 100%—far outpacing gold's robust 60% gain over the same period—the ratio has aggressively tightened, falling to levels around 75:1. This steep drop signals a market revaluation of silver, moving it out of gold's shadow and highlighting its critical, dual role as both a monetary metal and an indispensable industrial commodity. Many analysts view the narrowing ratio as confirmation of silver's powerful long-term bull market, driven by its unique positioning in the modern, electrified global economy.

A case for silver.Silver is currently under significant regulatory constraints, and its prevailing market price does not incentivize the allocation of capital toward ventures focused on increasing its supply. This creates a supply constraint for the asset. Beyond its role as an inflation hedge, a characteristic shared by most commodities, silver possesses unique properties that are particularly valuable for industrial applications. As we stand on the brink of a new wave of industrial expansion, silver's conductivity and reflectivity make it indispensable in various technologies, such as solar panels (where China leads in production), antifreeze formulations, and numerous other applications. Recently, President Putin announced that Russia will include silver in its strategic reserves. Meanwhile, China has been engaging in confidential agreements with miners and refiners to secure prices over extended periods. Due to China's relatively loose regulatory framework, these transactions are not publicly disclosed, and as a result, they are not reflected in silver's market price. This can be said for African, Latin-American, or other Asian countries with loose regulation for these kinds of markets. Silver pricing predominantly occurs on the futures market, which underscores cases where a disconnect arises between market prices and underlying realities, leading to potential distortions in valuation. Case 1: JP Morgan commodities trading desk scandal. " A federal jury in the Northern District of Illinois convicted a former trader at JPMorgan Chase and Credit Suisse today of fraud in connection with a spoofing scheme in the gold and silver futures markets. According to court documents and evidence presented at trial, Christopher Jordan, 51, of Mountainside, New Jersey, was an executive director and trader on JPMorgan’s precious metals desk in New York from 2006 to 2009, and on Credit Suisse’s precious metals desk in New York in 2010. Between 2008 and 2010, Jordan placed thousands of spoof orders, i.e., orders that he intended to cancel before execution, to drive prices in a direction more favorable to orders he intended to execute on the opposite side of the market. Jordan engaged in this deceptive spoofing strategy while trading gold and silver futures contracts on the Commodity Exchange (COMEX), which is a commodities exchange operated by the CME Group. These deceptive orders were intended to inject false and misleading information about the genuine supply and demand for gold and silver futures contracts into the markets... Four other former JPMorgan precious metals traders were previously convicted in related cases. In August 2022, Gregg Smith and Michael Nowak... spoofing... In October 2018, John Edmonds pleaded guilty in the District of Connecticut... wire fraud, commodities fraud, price manipulation, and spoofing... In August 2019, Christian Trunz pleaded guilty in the Eastern District of New York to one count of conspiracy to engage in spoofing and one count of spoofing... " This is the article if you'd like to read more: www.justice.gov My thoughts; This type of practice is an example of how there always a disconnect with real life and markets. One must also remember how information travels and the infrastructure and systems in place that runs our financial system. I believe JP Morgan's swift settlement shows to me there was not much accountability addressed. Case 2: Silver Thursday, Hunts Brothers, 1970s " Nelson Bunker Hunt and William Herbert Hunt — oil company executives, investors and brothers — first began purchasing silver in the early 1970s at a price of less than $2 per ounce. The Hunt brothers’ fervor for silver accelerated dramatically following the death of their father in 1974, a Texas oil tycoon known as H.L. Hunt. His passing released a $5 billion fortune to members of the Hunt family. Fueled by an enormous amount of capital, the Hunt brothers continued stockpiling silver and purchasing silver futures contracts. By early 1979, the price of silver had risen to about $6 per ounce. The Hunt brothers acquired roughly 195 million ounces of silver, about a third of the world’s total supply. They facilitated their silver purchases in part by investing in futures contracts through several brokers, including Bache Halsey Stuart Shields, Prudential-Bache Securities, and Prudential Securities. By December 1979, the market price for silver fluctuated between $20 and $25 per ounce. Silver had become exorbitantly expensive even for practical uses. Doctors struggled to afford X-ray film for patients, families melted down their heirloom silver flatware, silver burglaries skyrocketed, and Tiffany’s & Co. was forced to drastically raise its jewelry prices. Tiffany’s even took out a full-page ad in the New York Times criticizing the Hunt brothers, writing, “We think it is unconscionable for anyone to hoard several billion, yes billion, dollars’ worth of silver and thus drive the price up so high that others must pay artificially high prices for articles made of silver.” Silver reached a record high of $48.70 per ounce on Jan. 18, 1980. By some estimates, the Hunt brothers’ entire silver fortune peaked at a value of $10 billion. Thursday, March 27, 1980 Facing out-of-control silver prices, COMEX (Commodity Exchange, Inc.), a division of the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX), acted against the Hunt brothers. On Jan. 7, 1980, COMEX introduced Silver Rule 7, which placed heavy restrictions on the purchase of commodities on the margin. Following its peak price of $48.70 per ounce, silver began its decline and the Hunt family’s silver fortune began to shrink. On March 27, 1980, known as Silver Thursday, the price of silver dropped 50% in a single day, from $21.62 to $10.80 per ounce. The Hunt brothers failed to meet several margin calls and about $7 billion in paper assets suddenly turned into a $1.7 billion debt. The sudden price drop threatened to collapse several investment firms and banks. To prevent widespread financial chaos, multiple banks joined together to issue the Hunt brothers a $1.1 billion line of credit..." The original article: learn.apmex.com My thoughts: Now you see that one entity can have huge influence on the market. Your once dusty silver mirror can become valuable enough for you to go and find it and clean it and sell it. One actionable step you can take today is to capitalize on silver's current low valuation. There's clearly a lag between what's happening in the physical market and how that information gets reflected in exchange prices. Interestingly, we've seen noticeable price increases and premiums when buying physical silver, but there hasn’t been much movement in the more liquid instruments like the GLD or SLV ETFs—which, by the way, JPM vaults silver for. This disconnect exists because the market takes time to catch up to reality. What’s your take on this?
