How Much Will 1 oz of Silver Be Worth in 5 Years?

I'm trying to decide if silver is worth allocating to in a 5-year time horizon. The current price is around $76/oz (depending on when you're reading this). I'd like to understand the realistic range where silver could be in 2031 and what drives those scenarios. Is this a 2x investment or could it be 10x?

What Did Elon Musk Say About Silver? (And Why It Actually Matters)

I keep seeing people reference 'what Elon said about silver' but when I search for it, I can't find a specific viral quote. Did he actually make a statement about silver, or are people just assuming Tesla uses a lot of silver so his opinion matters? I'm trying to understand if there's real substance to this or if it's just speculation.

Is Silver Going to Skyrocket in 2026? The Supply Math Says Maybe

I missed most of the silver rally in 2025 because I was skeptical. Now it's jumped from $24 to $76 and I'm wondering if I'm already too late. Is silver actually going to continue skyrocketing in 2026, or is this the top where everyone should take profits? I see conflicting opinions online—some people saying $150+, others saying it crashes back to $40. What's actually realistic?

Will Silver Hit $200 an Ounce?

I've been watching silver climb from $24 to $76 over the past two years and now I keep reading predictions about $200. My brother-in-law who works in finance says I'm crazy for even considering it, but the supply numbers seem real. For those of you who've been in metals longer than me—is $200 silver actually realistic, or is this just hype? What would need to happen for it to get there?

Why Is Warren Buffett Buying Silver?

I've read that Warren Buffett bought a massive amount of silver back in the late 1990s. Is he still buying? Does this mean silver is a good investment? I'm trying to understand what his moves signal about precious metals.

Will Silver Hit $100 Per Ounce? It Already Did—Here's What Comes Next

I keep seeing headlines about silver hitting $100 for the first time ever back in January, and now it's around $76. I'm confused—is $100 actually considered 'high' for silver, or is this just media hype? I started stacking at $45 and now I'm wondering if I should sell some at these levels or hold expecting it to go back to $100+. What's the historical context here? Is $100 the floor now or was it just a spike?

How High Will Silver Go If the Dollar Collapses?

I keep hearing about the dollar collapsing and silver going to crazy prices. But I'm confused about whether we're talking about the dollar getting weaker or actually collapsing entirely. How high can silver realistically go in different scenarios? Are we talking $200, $500, or do people just say whatever number?
