It seems like the market is now pivoting towards a new asset alongside gold, as it keeps evolving to support new elements. The majority of 2025 witnessed the rise of gold to historic highs, but there’s another asset that is quietly marking its own way, creating a new pathway for investors to lean on during times of economic crisis.

Silver is forging a unique price path, climbing past predicted thresholds to sit at 57.3%. The metal has now evolved to become a leading element of the safe-haven asset series, as its industrial and commercial demand continues to rise at a record pace.

“🚨 OPINION: SILVER HITS $55/OZ, AND FIAT MONEY IS TREMBLING. The white metal is in full breakout mode. $55 today, up another 3.15%, like it’s late for the moon. Year-to-date: +90%. Why now? Industrial demand is exploding (solar alone will be eating almost all new supply by 2030). Monetary chaos: $3T deficits, the Fed cutting into 3% inflation, and dollar weaponization backfiring. Supply is in terminal decline; peak silver was years ago. The gold/silver ratio crashed from 120:1 to 49:1. Still room to run. Investment money is finally waking up and squeezing shorts. This isn’t a pump. This is fundamentals detonating.”

Moreover, silver is now a leading metal deployed heavily in the domains of solar, EVs, and electronics, a narrative that keeps shaping its price scenario.

“The Big Silver Game Changer…. It’s not an overnight event but an ongoing process. With Silver Industrial demand now consuming 86% of Global Silver Mine Supply… There is less & less for investment & jewelry demand. Silver is one of the most undervalued assets.”

The Metal’s Price Outlook Ahead?

Multiple financial experts are predicting a bullish pathway for the asset ahead in the future. Per Rashad Hajiyev, a leading financial expert, silver already seems to be breaking away from its cup and handle formation, eyeing a new high of $88 in the near future.

“The gold-to-silver ratio (GTS) broke horizontal support and headed towards the lower band of a 3.5-year descending channel formation with a GTS target of 70. At a $4,500 gold price and GTS 70, silver is at $63. Either way, I believe silver is headed to a $63 price target, most likely by next week. My next target for GTS 57 & Gold is a price target of $5,000. $5,000/57 = $88 silver price. Surely if gold overshoots, then silver could reach a triple-digit figure.
