Silver expected to rise in demand
The precious metal has gained nearly 12% in the year-to-date and is set to benefit from continued macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, alongside potential U.S. interest rate cuts, according to the industry body’s World Silver Survey 2025.
“While ongoing uncertainties elsewhere, along with silver’s healthy supply-demand conditions, will offer support, we do see prices easing back in late 2025.”
Supply is expected to rise by just 2% and demand to ease by only 1%, setting the stage for a 117.6 million ounce deficit.
“We very much expect such a dynamic will emerge eventually, but we feel that a few more years of deficits are needed first to further erode above-ground silver inventories.”
