The international precious metals market continues to be hot. Around 23:50 Taiwan time tonight (11th), the spot silver price successfully stood above the US$63/ounce mark, once again breaking the historical record, with an intraday increase of more than 2%.
Market analysis indicates that the recent surge in silver prices has been driven by multiple factors, including continued growth in industrial demand, increased risk aversion among investors, and market concerns about supply shortages. Since 2025, silver has seen a cumulative increase of over 100%, far outperforming gold and becoming the biggest highlight of the precious metals market.
As silver prices continue to rise, some argue that silver, as an asset with both industrial and investment attributes, still has room for further appreciation given the increasing uncertainty in the global economy. For example, Robert Kiyosaki, a prominent figure in the global financial world, previously predicted in November that silver would reach a target price of $100 by 2026. He also revealed his ownership of silver mines and noted that "new silver supply is becoming increasingly scarce."

However, the trading platform reminds investors that while silver prices continue to rise, the risk of short-term volatility should not be ignored, and investors should remain cautious.
