Gold’s been shining, but is silver about to steal the spotlight? With rising demand, tight supply, and a gold-to-silver ratio at historic highs, 2025 could be silver’s year. Is a breakout brewing? Dive into the data and decide for yourself.
Right now, silver might be poised for a major breakout.
Both gold and silver have seen good growth over the last 10-odd years. From ~$1,070 per troy ounce in 2015, gold had roughly tripled in price to ~$3,300 by April 2025.
As for silver, from a price of ~$14 per troy ounce in 2015, it had more than doubled to ~$32 by April 2025.
But when you compare their current prices to their prices in 2011, it becomes clear that the performances of these two metals have diverged sharply.
In August 2011, silver reached $45 per troy ounce, while gold was close to $1,900.
This means that silver is still far from beating its 2011 high, while gold has left its 2011 high in the dust.
As can be seen below*, due to this divergence, the gold-to-silver ratio is close to a post-COVID high of 100, which means it is significantly in favour of silver.
But that’s not all: there are several more signs silver could do exceptionally well soon.
For one thing, 2025 could mark the fifth consecutive year in which silver demand outstrips supply. This has been happening because silver is a very tight market: silver supply from mine production and recycling has remained consistent whereas demand has grown considerably.
In addition, our theoretical framework suggests that silver prices are far below their ‘implied value’, which means they have room to rise.
Lastly, silver has demonstrated outperformance during past precious metal bull markets.
Taken together, these data points suggest that silver may have further upside from current levels.
To learn more about the current potential of silver, you can read our recent blog post ‘Silver: A Shortage Then. A Shot Now?’
And for more actionable insights backed by data and analyses, we invite you to read the latest edition of Netra in its entirety.
