Silver

A time-tested commodity with surging industrial demand, silver could be the most undervalued asset of the decade.

Advantages Of Buying Silver

Silver's status as a critical industrial material, combined with its role as a safe-haven asset and an excellent portfolio diversifier, merits consideration right now as part of a well-balanced portfolio.

All the reasons to buy gold also apply to silver: both are physical assets with intrinsic value, have a low correlation to traditional markets, and serve as insurance against inflation and currency devaluation. However, a notable difference is that over 50% of mined silver is used for industrial purposes, compared to less than 10% for gold.

Silver's performance is influenced more by its industrial use, making economic growth and outlook more impactful on silver demand than on gold. Silver prices are about a tenth of gold's, and the smaller market size means that changes in demand or supply create more significant price shifts, leading to greater volatility. Thus, silver is a more speculative asset, offering a higher risk-reward ratio while still serving as a safe haven.

Growth

Silver has increased by 120% in the last 5 years and is still regarded as under-valued.

Security

Physical ownership and intrinsic value make silver a reliable store of wealth.

Demand

Silvers vital role in renewable technologies is rapidly increasing its demand.
