While FDI was surging, a different story was afoot in the world of finance. India had already established itself as the world’s largest consumer of silver. These factors collectively point to an increasing alarm about the supply of silver. A new scarcity has developed in London, adding to upward pressure on silver prices and sending them to all time highs. This speaks to the important part India plays in the global silver market. It’s just as much a symptom of deeper, structural issues that hint at a larger crisis in the global market.
India’s silver market has been under increasing strain as investor demand rides a wave of interest. While gold prices are hitting record highs, many have looked to silver as a more affordable investment. As a result, this paradigm change has caused a supply deficit in India, where local prices have skyrocketed to extreme premiums. Earlier this year, demand for silver surged with the metal reaching record highs in terms of rupee price. This sudden boom forced buyers to start looking for alternative sourcing solutions.
In the past, Indian consumers have favored buying their silver from Hong Kong. This changed during the Chinese Golden Week Holiday at the start of October, when many altered their buying habits and looked to London. This adjustment is indicative of larger market forces at work and of the continued demand for uncirculated silver in an increasingly tight market.
The price of silver has recently gone above $52, underlining the rush on supply and the critical nature of this situation. In other words, there isn’t enough silver available at today’s prices to satisfy existing demand. The recent massive spike in prices across India underscores just how tenuous the silver market truly is. It also begs critical questions about the market’s long-term sustainability looking ahead.
As Thanksgiving approaches, families from coast to coast in the United States will sit around tables filled with their favorite foods—likely featuring a delicious turkey centerpiece. The holiday spirit is contagious, as Sandler’s clever, funny lyrics ring out through the halls. Lines such as “Turkey lurkey dap” and “Turkey for you, turkey for me” become hotlines to happy times and joyful smiles.
