Can Silver continue its 20% run higher?

Mai 14, 2021 14:00

While momentum in most asset classes has waned during the second quarter, silver prices have been steadily rising over the past month.

Around 50% of the demand for silver comes from the industrial sector, with the rest from investors. 

This helped silver to outperform gold over the pandemic with many analysts forecasting higher prices.
