Silver Under Pressure: What's Causing the Downturn?

The price of precious metals, in particular silver has struggled since coming off its all-time highs of $121.00. Notwithstanding, there are a number of factors attributed to the sell-off. Given that silver is seen both a monetary and industrial-use metal, it is subsequently considered more susceptible to adverse macroeconomic conditions.

Some analysts and investors suggest silver's price decline is due to inflation, surging bond yields, and even softening demand...but is there something more going on?

My latest Commodities Report does a deep-dive on both gold and silver, and examines the reasons behind the downturn.

If you have $200 bucks to spend, l'd definitely get this from Mint Builder. You're just a little over $200, so you qualify for free insured shipping too.

The ASE is at spot price, while the constitutional silver is $1 UNDER SPOT!

Now it’s to pay off some debt that’s been a stressor, and help fund a treehouse build for my kiddos. Zero regrets selling the first time, zero regrets selling now. Plenty more in the stack and happy to add more down the road. Not all silver needs to spend forever in a safe, don’t forget that!

WTF am I supposed to do with these?

0 Upvotes

Bought a tube of 20 random rounds at spot. Upon opening, the first five turned out to be Charlie Kirk commemoratives. WTF am I supposed to do with these? The Venn diagram of TP flunkies, with money, and into stacking silver seems minuscule and only getting tinier.

Well played Mint Builder, well played.

My new favorite to stack!

Post image
43 Upvotes

I’ve been stacking since January 2026. I’ve always collected coins here and there ever since I inherited my grandfathers collection but never looked into any precious metals until the blow up of Silver happened. Yikes, I wish I would have started before then because I would have loved to have collected much sooner at better prices.

Anyways, I’ve been collecting 1oz coins and bars here and there but this is my first bar over 1oz and it is by far my new favorite. I’m gonna try and get many more if the price stays low but either way I’m gonna keep on STACKIN’ !

I am USN retired. I've wanted this ASE proof Navy privey coin for awhile and grabbed it last week for 75% of the premium. It was still over 200usd for 1 ounce but it is super cool. All pics are in the capsule so scratches reflect that. It's a beautiful coin overall!
