Gold 
“Silver prices experienced a strong 2024 along with gold,with prices up around 20.2% year-on-year. While silver’s performance paled in comparison to that of gold, both because of its lower percentage growth as well as the fact that silver did not rise to new record highs the way gold did, silver still put in a respectable performance during 2024, with the third highest level of percentage gains among a group of eleven asset classes that included a mix of equities, real estate, and bonds.
The prospects for silver prices in 2025 look strong at this time, with prices positioned for ongoing strength during 2025 and the potential for prices to outperform gold during the year. Silver’s investment demand, which is the key factor affecting prices, is largely influenced by the same factors that are positive for gold, which coupled with the metal’s underperformance compared to gold makes it a candidate for outperformance during 2025. The monthly average gold:silver ratio reached 90.3 in December 2024, which is high by historic standards. The strength in this ratio shows the attractive relative value of silver compared to gold making it compelling for investors as a portfolio diversifier amid heightened political and economic uncertainties.”
