Congratulations on seeing history being made, as the silver price has just broken the $60 level (and then the futures even broke through $61 for good measure).

December 9, 2025

Markets are quiet on the surface… but technically, things are far from boring. Silver’s stuck in a box, gold’s hesitating near key supports, and the U.S. Dollar is hinting at a powerful reversal setup that could flip everything upside down or confirm the recent...

Silver prices are surging toward $60 an ounce. The white metal finally broke out to new all-time highs two months ago -- at least without adjusting for inflation.

Silver has recently come out of the bottoming pattern that started around 2014 when silver broke down below the channel. That bottoming pattern is very similar to the early 2000s bottoming pattern that started in October 2000 when silver broke down below the channel...

A fundamental dynamic is driving the rally in silver prices: there simply isn’t enough metal. Silver topped $58 an ounce on Monday before sliding on Tuesday on profit-taking. Silver has gained over 99 percent this year.
