Causes and forecasts
Silver prices have experienced a period of strong fluctuations in recent times, but the precious metal market is still heading towards its sixth consecutive year of supply shortage, as the amount of silver withdrawn from reserves has reached 762 million ounces since 2021. According to the Silver Institute and consulting firm Metals Focus, this development increases the risk of liquidity shortage returning, even when demand is forecast to weaken.
Silver is widely used in many fields such as jewelry making, electronics manufacturing, electric vehicles and solar panels, and is also a familiar investment channel. The price of this metal once increased by 147% and set a record of 121.6 USD/ounce in January 2026, mainly due to a strong buying wave from individual investors.
This strong increase was formed in 2025 when large amounts of silver poured into US stockpiles and silver-guaranteed exchange-traded funds (ETPs). At the same time, soaring physical demand caused the London benchmark market to fall into a liquidity shortage in October of the same year.
Since then, liquidity has somewhat improved as cash flow has returned from the US, ETFs have recorded capital withdrawals and demand from India has cooled down. However, risks have not disappeared.
Mr. Philip Newman - Managing Director of Metals Focus, commented: "Silver rents in London have generally stabilized, but the risk of liquidity shortages returning this year is still present.
According to Metals Focus estimates, about 28% of the total 884 million ounces of silver stored at warehouses in London by the end of March were not linked to ETPs and could be used to support liquidity.
Experts at Metals Focus warn that if silver prices fluctuate more strongly and demand from India recovers, especially when capital returns to ETF funds holding silver in London, the risk of shortage may recur. At that time, the market will need more supply from the US to balance.
