Silver, rising to become the third largest asset globally!

That's right, the global asset landscape is once again changing — and the star is silver! As silver prices continue to climb, this precious metal's market value has successfully surpassed tech giant Apple, officially ranking as the third largest global asset, behind only gold and chip leader NVIDIA.
Behind this sharp increase in gold and silver prices, the core driving factors can be summarized into four points:
First, geopolitical risks are escalating. After Trump took office, the US initiated major adjustments to its global strategy, disrupting the previously relatively stable geopolitical landscape. Various geopolitical uncertainties have significantly increased, driving safe-haven funds into precious metals.
Second, the pressure on the US dollar to depreciate is becoming more apparent. The US has now clearly entered a rate-cutting cycle, putting intrinsic value of the dollar under pressure; coupled with Trump's public interference in the Federal Reserve's independence, market confidence in the dollar is further shaken. The downward expectation for the dollar is strengthening, and as non-dollar assets, gold and silver's attractiveness is simultaneously increasing.
Third, central banks around the world are increasing gold purchases. In recent years, many countries' central banks have continued to expand their gold reserves, creating a scaled capital convergence effect. This not only solidifies gold's asset attributes but also boosts demand for related precious metals like silver, becoming an important driver of price increases.
Fourth, the market supply and demand pattern is tightening. As institutional investors and retail buyers continue to enter the market, the originally balanced gold and silver markets are gradually showing a "supply shortage" trend. The expectation of tight supply is further amplified, accelerating price rises. It is worth noting that although the four main logical reasons seem to be well-supported, a deeper analysis reveals that the core of this round of gold and silver rally is still driven by capital — all favorable factors ultimately translate into price increases through concentrated capital inflows. #比特币与黄金战争
