 https://www.instagram.com/vanessaclarkipaiThis is your Daily Silver Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.Welcome back to the Daily Silver Price Tracker, I’m Vanessa Clark, and it’s great to have you with me for another episode where we dive into all the essential news and insights you need to stay on top of the daily silver market. Whether you’re an investor, a collector, or just fascinated by the ups and downs of precious metals, you’re in the right place.Let’s jump right into today’s top story—the current silver price and what’s behind the latest moves. As of today, Monday, October twenty-seventh, two thousand twenty-five, silver is trading at forty-seven dollars and eighty-three cents per troy ounce. That’s down a little over one and a half percent from last Friday’s close, when it was forty-eight dollars and sixty cents. But even with this pullback, silver is still up more than sixty-five percent since the start of the year, so it’s been a very strong performer in two thousand twenty-five, outpacing gold on a percentage basis according to FXStreet and the Economic Times.A lot of you might be wondering why silver has dropped today when it’s been on such a tear this year. The biggest driver is what’s happening in broader markets. Safe-haven demand has cooled a bit as there’s growing optimism about a possible United States-China trade deal. Plus, all eyes are on central bank meetings this week, especially the U.S. Federal Reserve. Many analysts believe the Fed is about to cut interest rates by a quarter point, which could support metals prices in the longer run, but in the short-term, traders are locking in profits and waiting to see what happens next.Silver markets are also being shaped by unique supply and demand dynamics. Physical silver is still in short supply at major global hubs. Backwardation—which means the spot price is higher than the futures price—is a big deal right now and signals urgent demand for real, physical silver delivery. Silver lease rates have jumped to remarkable levels—around thirty-nine percent annualized, compared to the long-term average of just one percent. Banks are even using air freight to rush metal between continents to meet demand, something that would’ve sounded outlandish a couple of years ago. This tightness is being driven by two factors: industrial demand, especially for solar panels and electronics, and investors flooding into silver-backed exchange-traded funds.On the technical side, analysts are watching some important price levels. Silver seems to be finding support around forty-seven to forty-eight dollars per ounce, and many see this zone as a new base after that sharp sell-off from its mid-October highs above fifty-four dollars. If silver breaks back above fifty, that could bring buyers back in and set the stage for another rally, possibly up to fifty-four dollars again. But if it dips below forty-six fifty, the market could see another leg down with even more volatility. At this point, it’s a tug-of-war between those who see this as a healthy pause in a bull market and those who think silver’s due for more correction.For those tracking the gold to silver ratio, that’s now at eighty-four point four, which is slightly lower than last week. This ratio tells us how many ounces of silver are needed to equal one ounce of gold, and the slight drop shows silver is holding its ground even as both metals are under some short-term pressure.So, what does all this mean if you’re thinking about investing in silver right now? First, remember that volatility is normal in the silver market, especially given all the global uncertainties. If you’re planning to trade, keep a close eye on those key technical support levels—forty-seven on the downside and fifty on the upside—as potential signals for your next moves. For longer-term holders, the trends in industrial demand and ongoing supply constraints are reasons for optimism, but it’s wise to continue monitoring policy signals from the Fed and geopolitical headlines that can move prices in a hurry.That’s it for your Silver Price Tracker update today.
