Silver Outperforms Gold, Up 2.46% Amid Inflation Concerns

Silver futures jumped 2.46% to $50.35, outperforming gold as traders bet on rising industrial demand and inflation hedge buying. Analysts said robust consumption from solar, electronics, and EV sectors, coupled with supply tightness, has strengthened silver’s appeal. The metal also benefited from a weaker dollar and renewed safe-haven flows amid persistent economic uncertainty. Market watchers expect volatility to remain elevated, but sustained industrial momentum could keep silver prices supported in the near term.
