Silver’s most important application is in jewellery. As an industrial commodity, silver is valued for its conductivity, making it an essential component in the manufacturing of electronics, solar panels, and various industrial products. Its antimicrobial properties also contribute to its use in medical settings, such as wound dressings and water purification systems.
Investors may use silver as a hedge or for speculative trading. Hedgers may include equity investors who want a downturn resistant commodity, and speculators will often be expecting price increases due to market instability, supplier shortages, or growth in industrial applications.
