Silver has surged around 150% this year, breaking above $80 per ounce in late December for the first time and outperforming major equity indexes and currencies. However, the metal has pulled back significantly over the last few days and currently sits around $71.80

In an October note, analysts at HSBC raised their 2026 gold price forecast, predicting the yellow metal will hit $5,000 per ounce amid broad uncertainty.
