Silver Outpaces Gold, Ratio Signals More Upside

The gold-to-silver ratio has dropped sharply from over 90 in March to below 76 – historically a bullish setup for silver. In past cycles, a falling ratio has preceded major runs in silver miners.

Silver also broke above key resistance at $35, a level it couldn't hold in 2020 or 2021. With that technical ceiling cleared, analysts are eyeing $40+ as the next stop.

Schiff called the move "a precious metals rally," and he's not alone. Stocks like First Majestic Silver Corp (NYSE:AG) and Pan American Silver Corp (NYSE:PAAS) are already rallying in tandem, buoyed by rising spot prices as momentum flows into silver.
