Silver Explodes Above 70 USD: Historic Year-End Rally and Analyst Target
December 23, 2025
It is the financial exclamation point at the end of 2025: the silver price knows no bounds. After the precious metal spent months building momentum, historic resistance levels have now been pulverized. With a current price of over 70.30 USD (as of December 23, 2025), we are witnessing one of the most dynamic price movements in the history of commodity markets.
What was considered an optimistic forecast just a year ago is now a reality. But what is driving this massive rally, and has the peak already been reached? We analyze the background and look at the experts' forecasts.
The increase of nearly 2% in just one trading day is no coincidence, but the result of a "perfect storm" in the commodity market. The following factors are fueling the price:
The sentiment among major banking houses has shifted from "cautiously optimistic" to "euphoric." Renowned analysts are adjusting their price targets upward at a rapid pace.
Commodity strategists at Bank of America point out that silver is still undervalued compared to gold in a historical context. Should the gold-silver ratio approach its historical average, prices of 85 to 90 USD in the first quarter of 2026 would not be a surprise.
Citigroup is even more bullish. In a recent note to investors, a "super-spike" scenario is described. Similar to rhodium or palladium in the past, physical scarcity could briefly drive the price to irrational heights. A price target of 100 USD is now being traded there as a "plausible scenario for 2026."
From a technical chart perspective, silver is in so-called "Blue Sky Territory" (unexplored territory). Since there were no historical resistance levels above 50 USD, price discovery is determined purely by supply and demand. However, analysts warn: such parabolic increases are often accompanied by extremely high volatility. Pullbacks of 10-15 USD are completely normal in this environment and offer buying opportunities.
The current rally at 70 USD impressively demonstrates the power within gold's "little brother." While gold is often seen as a calm harbor, silver is the turbo in the precious metals portfolio. Those who are invested can enjoy massive gains.
Is it too late to get in now?
Not necessarily, because the fundamental data (industrial demand vs. mine supply) has not changed – silver is simply scarce. Nevertheless, investors should act prudently at prices above 70 USD and not blindly follow every trend.
With such extreme market movements, one thing is crucial: Physical ownership. Paper promises and certificates can carry risks in volatile phases. Those who want to secure wealth for the long term rely on physical precious metals.
With the Spargold App, you can not only participate in the value development of silver but also include gold as a stabilizing anchor in your portfolio. Perhaps use the high silver prices to partially reallocate gains into gold or use savings plans to benefit from the cost-average effect if the market corrects.
