Why Silver Is Surging in 2026
-
Industrial demand boom: Solar panels, EVs, electronics, and AI hardware are consuming silver faster than supply growth.
-
Global supply tightness: Mining output hasn’t kept pace with demand.
-
Investment rotation: Investors are looking beyond gold as silver offers higher volatility and bigger percentage moves in bull markets.
-
Local currency effects: PKR movements amplify international price changes domestically.
Silver vs Gold – Which Makes Sense Now?
-
Lower entry point: You can start with a few tolas.
-
Higher upside potential: Silver historically lags gold—then catches up with sharper gains.
-
Hedge appeal: Physical metal offers comfort during economic uncertainty.
If you already hold silver: Consider holding most of it longer; partial profit-taking is an option if you need liquidity.
