Silver had a busy week — and the signals are getting harder to ignore. From record-breaking crowds at the FUN Coin Show in Florida to silver bullion selling out in minutes across Japan and months-long waitlists in Singapore, physical demand is tightening worldwide. At the same time, China’s growing grip on global silver refining and new export controls are quietly reshaping supply chains that industries can’t function without. Premiums in Asia and shrinking inventories in the West suggest this isn’t just a paper-market move, but a real-world squeeze forming across hemispheres. Watch to see how these forces are converging — and why silver’s role as a strategic metal may be entering a new chapter.
