Silver protects against inflation and is indispensable in many areas of industry

Whether in high-tech applications, medicine, the solar industry, the automotive sector (sensors and parts in electric vehicles), or electronics, silver is ubiquitous, including in the chemical industry. Renewable energies need silver. As silver consumption grows and supply is limited, a structural deficit is emerging. This deficit has existed for years and is affecting the price. A strong US dollar is problematic for the price of silver, as it makes silver more expensive outside the US. Rising yields are also not conducive to high silver prices.

However, the excellent conductivity of the precious metal, for example for printed circuit boards or contacts, is driving demand. The defense industry also uses silver, for example in modern weapon systems, radar equipment, and communications technology. Ammunition alloys, precision instruments, and sensors in military vehicles and aircraft contain silver. Due to its dual function, silver is also referred to as a "stress test candidate." This is because in good times, it acts like a turbocharger.

Silver is therefore a "hybrid commodity" whose volatility compared to gold stems from its small market size. In times of geopolitical uncertainty, of which there is plenty, silver’s value preservation factor increases. For investors, it is a cheaper investment than gold. But even if there are price setbacks for silver, analysts and silver experts foresee strong years ahead for both silver and silver mining stocks.
