The Road to Triple-Digit Silver: What’s Driving the Surge?

In a recent GoldSilver episode, Mike Maloney and Alan Hibbard sift through a slew of insightful comments from viewers on their latest silver videos. The discussion reveals a recurring theme: investors are increasingly concerned about systemic risks, inflation, and potential currency devaluation, prompting a surge in interest in precious metals. 

One key insight is the connection between silver’s production and industrial demand. With 60% of silver mined as a byproduct of base metal mining, a global economic slowdown would reduce both demand and supply, potentially creating a severe supply squeeze. Mike emphasizes that while industrial demand might dip during a recession, monetary demand — driven by fear of fiat currency collapse and systemic instability — could propel silver prices to triple digits.

Alan reads comments reflecting diverse investor perspectives. Some highlight silver’s use as an “outside the system savings account,” while others point out manipulation by big banks and structural deficits in silver supply. There’s also a strong belief that as market psychology shifts from pessimism to fear-driven buying, silver will experience a significant surge. 

Mike encourages viewers to consider silver’s potential not just as a commodity but as a hedge against financial instability. He also references his book, “The Great Gold and Silver Rush,” as a resource for understanding these dynamics. 

One thing that Alan and Mike both agree on: silver is poised for a large move higher. Mike says that triple-digit silver is a real possibility — and sooner than many think. 

If you’ve been waiting on the sidelines, now is the time to act.
