Silver closely follows the performance of gold in the market
Upward pressure on the price of silver is amplified due to increasing industrial demand
This is a weird time – In 2020 the global money supply grew faster than in previous years due to government stimulus intervention in response to COVID-19
Average investor today invests in financial instruments that track performance of silver – ETF’s (silver exchange-traded funds)
Silver is predominantly produced as a by-product in the mining of other metals (precious and non)
Majority of silver production within a few regions. 50% global production from south and central America = making it less stable and at-risk for supply disruption
Concentration of silver production in south and central America puts it at risk of disruptions that can rattle entire industries
Silver supply decreased between 2018 - 2020. Its falling because:
1. declining production
2. declining silver mine capacity
3. declining reserves of silver
Worlds largest silver mines are aging (top 10 mines average 29.5 years old – excluding Fresnillo)
As the existing mines deplete, stable regions with stable silver production will provide a secure supply.
Investors should consider which asset is more vulnerable to inflation as they look to protect their portfolios.
New discoveries may prove to be the next great opportunity due to declining supply and rising demand
Prolonged weakness in silver price is an exploration and investment opportunity
