Record in foreign markets/ Silver price exceeds gold

The price of silver surpassed $78 per ounce for the first time on Friday as precious metals continued a record rally, with factors such as interest rate cuts and tariff uncertainty pushing gold, silver and platinum to all-time highs.

Silver's rise has outpaced gold, although the price of the more expensive metal rose just over 1.2% to a high of $4,562.70 on Friday.

The price of silver has risen more than 146% over the past year, putting the metal on track to have its biggest year of gains since 1979.

Platinum also rose nearly 9% on Friday, reaching a price of $2,503, while copper rose more than 5% to a price of $5.82.

The price of silver has risen sharply this year due to federal interest rate cuts, demand for silver in artificial intelligence data centers, limited silver supply and tariff uncertainty, analysts said. 

Forbes analyzes that despite the silver craze, gold is still a safer investment. Analysts say gold is a more practical investment for banks because it is a rarer resource and much more valuable per gram, making it easier to transport and secure.

Some analysts have said that silver will continue to thrive at least through the new year 2026. For silver specifically, while nothing is guaranteed, rising economic uncertainty and persistent inflation suggest we could see higher prices and stronger demand./CNA
