In his late-September interview, SD Bullion’s senior analyst James Anderson dove deep into the significance of the $50 per ounce price zone, calling it silver’s most important battleground in decades. He explained that this level carries both technical and psychological weight, as it marked the peaks of silver’s historic runs in 1980 and 2011. According to James, reaching $50 isn’t just about momentum—it’s about the market confronting decades of pent-up supply and demand pressures that have been building beneath the surface.
James highlighted how geopolitical tensions, global debt stress, and eroding trust in fiat currencies are fueling renewed interest in tangible assets like silver. He pointed out that industrial demand—from solar energy to advanced electronics—continues to rise, while new mine supply has lagged. These combined forces, he explained, are creating a structural deficit that could support higher prices if the market can sustain above the $50 threshold.
Looking ahead, James cautioned that while silver’s move into the $50 range is historic, it also sets the stage for increased volatility. He noted that short-term corrections are normal after major breakouts, but if silver holds above this level, it could attract a new wave of institutional and retail buying. Ultimately, James framed this moment as a turning point—a potential revaluation of silver’s role in both the financial system and the broader global economy.
