Silver's Historic Surge: 157% Gain in 2025 Outshines Gold

  • Silver gained an unprecedented 157% in 2025, significantly outperforming gold and marking its strongest year ever.
  • The rally was driven by a rare convergence of safe-haven demand, easing global monetary policy, and accelerating industrial consumption.
  • Its dual identity as a precious metal and critical industrial input for green technologies like solar and EVs fueled structural demand.
  • Despite the price surge, jewellery demand adjusted gradually, with brands absorbing volatility and silver gaining affordability.
  • Analysts predict short-term consolidation but expect silver to continue outperforming gold into 2026, with targets up to $75/ounce.

Why It Matters: Silver's 2025 rally, fueled by diverse factors, marks a historic shift with strong future prospects.
