Why silver prices are holding steady

The Augmont Report published on December 8, stated that silver can continue its rally towards $60 (Rs 1,85,500) and $62 (Rs 1,91,000), with firm support at $57 (Rs 1,77,000), if tight supply conditions continue.

The white metal is gaining traction, buoyed by strength in global demand and renewed interest from investors seeking portfolio balance. As markets brace for the US Fed rate decision, the white metal is likely to stay in focus, while volatility may remain high, but underlying fundamentals for silver look supportive.

"Silver is holding its ground too, underpinned by strong industrial demand and robust investor interest. Following a stellar run this year, the white metal remains attractive in comparison to gold. Further gains are likely if global demand stays firm and supply remains tight," said Rahul Gupta, Chief Business Officer, Ashika Stock Services

Outlook: Will silver regain momentum this week?

The Augmont report said, "Silver continues to rise, reaching $60, as structural factors underpin the recovery, with low visible exchange inventories, renewed ETF accumulation, and industry estimates of a 2025 supply deficit tightening the market and magnifying short covering, while durable industrial demand from solar and other green technologies supports the medium-term case for higher prices."

“Silver riding strong investor demand and tightening supply has outpaced gold this year, nearly doubling in 2025. The white metal recently touched record highs on both global and domestic markets., with prices on the domestic exchange crossing Rs 1.85 lakh per kilogram.

“Given its growing role in industry plus safe-haven and speculative demand, silver’s upside appears stronger than gold’s over the next few months. Silver may offer higher returns in the near-term, potentially outperforming gold if global demand and rate-cut expectations persist,” said Ross Maxwell, Global Strategy Lead at VT Markets.
