Silver Prices May Rise 20% In One Year: Report
Silver may see an upside of around 20% over the next one year, with prices expected to reach $60 per ounce, according to the latest outlook by Emkay Wealth Management, the wealth and advisory arm of Emkay Global Financial Services. The report attributes this bullish forecast to a growing industrial demand and a persistent supply deficit of nearly 20%, which is likely to continue in the foreseeable future.
According to the report, gold returns have matched equities and outperformed bonds since the end of the gold standard. As of October 8, 2025, gold has delivered returns of 61.82% year-to-date, compared with 4.2% for Indian equities (Nifty 500 TRI) and 8.4% for bonds (Crisil Short Term Bond Index). Precious metal prices, the report noted, remain closely linked to movements in the US dollar. Expected rate cuts in the US could weaken the dollar, further supporting gold and silver prices.
