Silver Hits Record Rs 2 Lakh/kg
Silver prices have reached a new high of Rs 2 lakh per kilogram.
Experts believe they could go even higher to Rs 2.4 lakh by 2026.
This rise is due to several factors, including a weaker dollar, uncertainty about the US Federal Reserve's policies, and strong demand from industries like solar technology and electric vehicles.
However, there are risks like a stronger US dollar, rising interest rates, and changes in investor preferences that could slow down this growth.
Silver is used a lot in industries, and its supply is limited, which also supports its price.
Investors can buy silver through special funds called ETFs, which have given high returns recently.
Silver prices hit a record high of Rs 2 lakh/kg on MCX.
Axis Mutual Fund predicts potential upside to Rs 2.4 lakh/kg by 2026.
Risks include weak physical demand, ETF outflows, and profit-taking.
Industrial demand, particularly from solar and EV sectors, drives silver consumption.
Silver ETFs have delivered strong returns, with Tata Silver ETF leading at 107.03% over one year.
