Silver Surges 85% in 2025 — The Run is On.
Recent market data suggests that inflation may remain stubbornly above the Federal Reserve’s 2% target for several years. The five-year breakeven inflation rate currently sits at 2.6% and has consistently stayed above key moving averages since October. Market traders are predicting inflation rates around 2.9% through November, while economists expect January’s headline inflation rate to be 2.8%, with core inflation at 3.1%.
Fed Chair Powell has emphasized the need for patience regarding interest rate cuts, particularly as markets assess the potential impact of Trump’s proposed tariffs. The situation is complicated by what experts describe as an “embedded inflationary mindset” among consumers, who are still adjusting to the significant price increases from 2021-2022. This lingering effect is evident in everyday items, with products like cereal seeing substantial price hikes.
