This is great news for those of us who bought silver coins and bullion when it was much lower. I am one of those.

What is silver going to trade in 2026? Investing News Network posted their forecast for the metal for the coming year.

It begins with:

The silver price reached heights not seen in more than 40 years in 2025, posting new all-time highs in the fourth quarter amid a supply deficit, expanding industrial use and rising safe-haven demand.

The white metal reached its highest point for the year in mid-December, breaking through US$64 per ounce following an interest rate cut from the US Federal Reserve.

Is silver a good investment? 

There's an old saying, "Buy low, sell high." That certainly applies to silver today. I bought plenty of it while it was low. But I am holding on to it as the spot price has been up for the past several weeks.

Investing News takes a look at the pros and cons of investing in silver. 

They begin with:

Investing in silver bullion has pros and cons, and what’s right for one investor may not work for another.

Interest in the silver market tends to flourish whenever the silver price increases, with investors beginning to wonder if it is the right time to add physical silver to their investment portfolios.

While silver can be volatile, the precious metal is also seen as a safe-haven asset, similar to its sister metal gold. Safe-haven investments can offer protection in times of uncertainty, and with tensions running high, they could be a good choice for those looking to preserve their wealth in difficult times.

With those factors in mind, let’s look at the pros and cons of buying silver bullion.

Here's an interesting (and tantalizing) thought: silver at $100/toz.

That's what one silver commodity CEO thinks might happen. So far, silver has stayed in the twenty dollar range.

If silver does actually reach $100/toz, I'd definitely consider selling. 

An article in Investing News Network discusses this.

They begin with:

What’s in store for silver in the future? Keith Neumeyer of First Majestic Silver has said he sees the white metal reaching US$100 per ounce.

The silver price made waves in 2020 when it rose above US$20 per ounce for the first time in four years, and the precious metal has largely stayed above that level since, even reaching US$29.59 in 2021.

The metal has repeatedly tested the high US$20s since, including a high of US$29.59, and passed the US$26 mark again as recently as May of this year. However, it has yet to break through the US$30 mark.

Nonetheless, well-known figure Keith Neumeyer, CEO of First Majestic Silver (TSX:FR,NYSE:AG), has frequently said he believes the white metal could climb even higher, eventually reaching into the triple digits.

When Will Silver Go Up?

Silver took a hit this past week. 

Depending upon the source, the spot price for silver has been around $22.95 to $22.01 toz. This is actually good for buyers. As the spot prices falls, there are more deals to be had. One just has to shop around to find them. That's why I am not concerned over the current spot price.

Some investors are now asking, When Will Silver Go Up? That is the topic of an article in Investing News Network. 

They begin it with:

Many investors are asking themselves “When will silver go up?” Are market conditions ripe for another run up in the silver price?

It’s no secret that the silver market can be incredibly volatile. From February 2022 to February 2023 alone, the white metal has seen price levels ranging from highs of US$26.39 in March to lows of below US$18 per ounce in September.

Many investors are confused by the precious metal’s movement. After all, silver is a safe-haven asset that generally fares well in times of turmoil, and the past year has been packed with tense geopolitical events alongside the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The Russian-Ukraine war, increasing oil and gas prices and rising inflation have further heightened global economic uncertainty.

Unfortunately, answering the question, “When will silver go up?” is tricky. Even seasoned analysts can’t tell the future, and it’s difficult to find a consensus on the topic of when it will exit its bear market and enter a bull market.

Nevertheless, it’s definitely possible to track down different opinions on the topic. Market participants interested in investing in silver would do well to keep these ideas top of mind as they try to determine where the spot price may move in the future.
