The silver market has seen a historic change after 40 years, when the price of silver crossed that of crude oil.
On December 17, silver futures on MCX made a new lifetime high, while on COMEX it crossed $66 per ounce. Weak US jobs data and rising unemployment increased expectations of a rate cut in 2026, which is bullish for silver.
Rising demand and limited supply in renewable energy, EVs, AI and electronics are supporting this rally. Experts believe there is short-term volatility, but the long-term trend is strong. Silver ETFs are becoming a smart investment option.
