Why Silver is the Undervalued Commodity You Should Be Watching

In the world of precious metals, gold often takes the spotlight. However, there's another commodity that is currently undervalued and deserves your attention—silver. If you've guessed silver, you're spot on! This year, silver has rallied an impressive 46%, marking it as a significant player in the market.

The Growing Global Silver Deficit

According to the Silver Institute, the global silver deficit is expected to grow by 17% in 2024. This increase is driven by a rise in demand, primarily fueled by robust industrial consumption.

Silver's applications span across various industries, including jewelry, electronics, electric vehicles, and solar panels, as well as for investment purposes.

The Renewable Energy Surge

The surge in solar installations and electric vehicle production is a compelling indicator of increased silver demand. Silver's exceptional conductivity makes it essential in the transition towards renewable energy. The demand for silver in the solar industry has seen substantial growth, from accounting for around 14% of total demand by the end of 2023.

Challenges in Boosting Silver Supply

Boosting the supply of silver is not easy due to the limited availability of primary silver mines. Around 80% of silver supply comes as a by-product from lead, zinc, copper, and gold projects. This reliance on by-product mining raises concerns about future shortages

Silver's critical role in various industries, coupled with its growing demand and limited supply, makes it a compelling investment. The market dynamics suggest that silver is not just a valuable commodity but an undervalued one with significant growth potential. Stay informed and consider the potential of silver in your investment strategy.
