"Silver is crashing despite war, inflation, and rising oil—conditions that should boost safe-haven assets. This video explains how rising Treasury yields and a strong dollar are pulling capital out of gold and silver.
Meanwhile, physical supply is tightening fast as demand from AI, EVs, and solar surges. We break down the key signals to watch and whether this is a buying opportunity or a deeper breakdown."

Despite the geopolitical instability that typically bolsters precious metals, silver and gold have recently experienced significant crashes, with silver dropping over forty-eight per cent from its peak. This downturn is primarily driven by high United States Treasury yields and a strong dollar, which increase the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets and lead institutional investors to favour bonds. The situation was further exacerbated by a speculative bubble in the paper market, where a sudden hike in margin requirements triggered a cascade of forced liquidations and margin calls. However, a profound disconnect exists between these crashing paper prices and the physical market, which is currently facing its sixth consecutive annual supply deficit amidst record industrial demand from the solar, electric vehicle, and artificial intelligence sectors. While technical indicators suggest potential for further downside if key support levels fail, the structural supply constraints and dwindling exchange inventories indicate that the physical reality may eventually force a dramatic price correction once macroeconomic pressures ease.
