Silver prices rise, how high will it go?

“Silver is showing signs of relatively higher momentum with the price trying to breach the crucial US$ 33 level,” Emkay said

Given silver’s diverse industrial applications, its price is projected to rise from its current level, reaching $36.60, $38.70, and $39.30 on COMEX, it said.

“Investing in silver funds with a 12 to 18 months’ time horizon is likely to be a worthy proposition.”

The gold-silver ratio is currently around 90, which suggests that silver is currently undervalued.

    Gold futures up

    Gold futures tick higher on tariff uncertainty and short-term monetary policy outlook. Futures are up 0.2% at $3,233.60 a troy ounce, near Friday’s record high of $3,263/oz.

    The uncertainty both boosted gold’s safe-haven demand and weakened the U.S. dollar as an alternative safe asset, further enhancing gold’s appeal, Commerzbank says.

    Investment banks raise gold forecasts

    UBS and Commerzbank raised their gold price forecasts on Friday, joining other investment banks as investors drive the safe-haven metal to record highs amid the economic uncertainty sparked by U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade policies.

    Trump’s tariffs have roiled financial markets, stoking fears of inflation and a global recession. While he has paused most duties, he has hiked those on China to 145%, prompting Beijing to lift its tariffs on U.S. goods to 125%.

    “We expect gold’s rally to extend into next year and for prices to stabilise at higher levels further out,” UBS analysts said in a note

    Gold and silver fall

    Spot gold was down 0.4% at $3,101.01 an ounce, as of 0710 GMT. Still, bullion was on track for a fifth consecutive weekly gain, buoyed by its safe-haven appeal that aided gold to reach three record highs this week.

    “Gold tends to rally amid difficult-to-price uncertainty – like the start of a war – but tends to lose that support once markets learn how to price the risks involved,” said Ilya Spivak, head of global macro at Tastylive.

    “The Trump administration seems to have picked a road, and while sentiment clearly doesn’t like it, at least the path of least resistance is more visible and easier to price. That is trimming some of gold’s “market confusion” premium.”

    Spot silver declined 1.5% to $31.4 an ounce, platinum lost 0.8% to $944.80, and palladium was steady at $928.33.
