INSIGHT

$800 If Historical Move Repeats

  • A gradual, sustained rise in silver differs from past rapid spikes and reflects higher monetary base since 2020.
  • Projecting the 1960–1980 move onto today's base implies as much as $800 silver, per Shawn Khunkhun.
ADVICE

$25–$30 Needed To Spur Exploration

  • Investable exploration returns require silver prices north of about $25–$30 to incentivize developers.
  • Expect more exploration and M&A only once prices sustainably exceed that incentive threshold.
INSIGHT

Primary Silver Producers Are Scarce

  • The silver industry has very few primary producers; many firms become gold-centric via M&A.
  • That scarcity of silver-focused producers increases value for genuinely silver-centric equities.
