The silver market is forecast to record another significant deficit (total supply less demand) for the fifth consecutive year in 2025. In keeping with previous years, silver industrial demand will remain the key driver of this favorable supply/demand backdrop, with volumes projected to hit a new record high this year.
Concerns about President Donald Trump’s anticipated tariff policies have fueled short covering and deliveries of silver (and other precious metals) into CME warehouses since late 2024. This, coupled with rising economic and geopolitical uncertainties, has underpinned a healthy recovery in silver prices since the start of 2025.
Over the same time, silver investment has faced several challenges. For example, ongoing concerns about the prospects for the Chinese economy have weighed on silver, which helps explain the elevated gold:silver ratio that has persisted.
With this in mind, the Silver Institute offers its thoughts on the 2025 silver market, noting that Metals Focus, the prominent global precious metals research consultancy based in London, contributed to this analysis. The firm will research and produce the Silver Institute’s annual report on the international silver market, World Silver Survey 2025, which will be released on April 16.
