In terms of standout performances, silver made an unexpectedly strong move. It recently retested its base last week and then surged without any clear reason, which I find particularly intriguing. The closest related event is President Biden’s newly announced tariffs on solar panels. Since silver is a key component in solar panels, this policy change could be influencing its price. This surge in silver prices is the most significant since the deflation of the silver bubble in 2013. Traditionally, investors buy silver as a financial safeguard, so this sharp increase was unexpected and could further fuel the trend as more investors jump on board, fearing they might miss out. If silver continues to rise, we might see a big jump in mining stocks as they play catch-up.
