Spot silver last traded at $39.05 an ounce, down 0.57% on the day; however, the precious metal is up nearly 35% since the start of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, gold last traded at $3,373.50 an ounce, up 28.5% year-to-date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe believe the catalysts for this silver bull market are a structural supply deficit, growing industrial demand, and renewed investor interest, particularly among Asian and North American retail buyers of exchange-traded products, coins, and bars,\u201d she said in her report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Industrial demand has been a critical factor behind silver\u2019s growing deficit, and Smirnova said she doesn\u2019t expect this trend to reverse anytime soon. Since 2016, total global silver demand has grown by 16%, while mine production has fallen by 7%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this environment, Smirnova said the precious metal\u2019s near-term potential could depend on retail demand, which remains the wild card in the marketplace.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;69ecbece4da7e&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"69ecbece4da7e\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"300\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goldsilverdesk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Silver-at-39-2-7-24-25-1.png?resize=600%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-724\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goldsilverdesk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Silver-at-39-2-7-24-25-1.png?w=600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goldsilverdesk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Silver-at-39-2-7-24-25-1.png?resize=300%2C150&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe available inventory of freely traded silver has been heavily diminished, making the metal more sensitive to incremental buying,\u201d she said. \u201cSmall increases in demand could now lead to disproportionately large increases in price. With less silver available for open-market trading, investor positioning has become a more decisive force in price movements.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While silver has outperformed gold in recent months, Smirnova noted that gold\u2019s premium remains overextended. The gold-silver ratio has dropped to 86, down sharply from the highs above 100 seen in April. However, the ratio\u2019s historical average hovers between 50 and 60.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Smirnova said that this positioning still makes silver an attractive value play for retail investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSilver is regaining prominence as a trusted safe-haven asset in today\u2019s environment of increased geopolitical tensions, inflationary pressures, and financial market instability. Historically, silver has served as a store of value in periods of crisis, much like gold, but with the added benefit of being significantly more affordable and accessible for retail investors,\u201d she said. \u201cWith supply deficits deepening and demand intensifying across both industrial and investment channels, silver\u2019s bull market appears well supported. We believe silver offers an attractive opportunity for investors seeking exposure to a hard asset with both growth and defensive qualities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for silver\u2019s potential upside, Smirnova noted that historically, in a precious metals bull market, silver\u2019s rally has, on average, been twice as large as gold\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis past outperformance is due in part to silver\u2019s smaller market size and higher volatility, which amplifies price movements, and silver\u2019s dual role as both a monetary and industrial metal, which adds extra demand,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"35\" height=\"35\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/goldsilverdesk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/image.jpeg?resize=35%2C35&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-720\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kitco.com\/author\/neils-christensen\"><\/a>By <strong>Neils Christensen<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Neils Christensen Silver is struggling to hold its ground at $39 an ounce, but after seven years of supply deficits, the precious metal remains in a solid uptrend, according to one market strategist.
