About Silver

Silver is one of the most actively traded precious metals, and remains in demand not only in the jewelry sector, but also in global finance and industry. On the stock market, silver is primarily traded through futures contracts and options, which provide flexible tools for speculating on price changes or hedging positions.

Silver futures are available on major commodity exchanges such as NYMEX, COMEX, CME, ICE, and LME. These platforms offer standardized contracts, enabling both institutional and private investors to gain exposure to silver price fluctuations.

Within the CME Group, trading takes place on NYMEX (open from 08:10 to 15:20 ET) and COMEX (08:00 to 13:30 ET). Although they are separate in name, both operate under the same umbrella and offer nearly identical instruments.

On the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), the silver futures ticker is SI. Each contract represents 5,000 troy ounces, and prices are quoted in US dollars. The minimum price increment is $0.005 per ounce, which equals $25 per contract. Futures are available for three consecutive months, as well as selected months up to five years in advance.

Mini contracts are also offered, such as ticker QI, representing 2,500 ounces per contract. These provide more accessible entry points for smaller investors.

On the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) and London Metal Exchange (LME), similar instruments are traded—LME’s silver ticker is AG, with a standard volume of 5,000 ounces.

In Japan, the Tokyo Commodity Exchange (TOCOM) lists silver futures under the numeric ticker 12, each contract covering 10 kilograms, and quoted in Japanese yen.

Silver is also actively traded in forex markets through the XAG/USD pair, allowing traders to speculate on silver prices against the US dollar.

Silver Market Overview

The world’s leading silver-producing countries include:

Over the past decade, silver prices have shown limited long-term growth, frequently revisiting historical lows. Despite this, silver remains a valuable hedge and an essential part of diversified investment portfolios.

When analyzing silver price trends, several key factors should be considered:

Correlation with gold: Many mining companies extract multiple precious metals. When gold prices rise, mining activity often increases, indirectly affecting silver supply and demand.

Geopolitical risks in producing countries: Political instability or economic disruptions in major mining regions can cause price volatility due to potential supply chain risks.

Seasonal demand: For instance, the wedding season in India can create a spike in demand for precious metals, indirectly boosting interest in silver.

Global economic health: Since silver is heavily used in industrial production, its price is closely tied to economic cycles. During recessions, industrial demand may fall, putting downward pressure on prices.

Supply and demand balance: Significant price movements usually require a sharp shift in either direction. News about new silver deposits or changes in recycling and recovery technology can impact prices.

For trading silver on the stock exchange, futures contracts and options are most often used as the most convenient tools for profiting from price fluctuations.
