SILVER weekly special report based on 1.00 Lot Calculation:
SOUTH AMERICA GEOPOLITICAL TENSIONS ESCALATE
- BREAKING (JANUARY 3): US ARMY ATTACKS VENEZUELA WITH AIRSTRIKES, CAPTURING VENEZUELAN PRESIDENT MADURO. According to Reuters, after a coordinated land and air strike the US military captured President Maduro, with Maduro set to appear in court on Monday (January 5) on charges of drug trafficking. US President Trump has threatened harsh punishments to the new interim leader Delcy Rodriguez if compliance with US is ignored.
SILVER MARKET: HIGHER DEMAND AMID SUPPLY SHORTAGES LEADS TO A WIDENING DEFICIT
- MARKET DEFICIT: SILVER MARKET REMAINS IN DEFICIT SINCE AT LEAST 2016. The silver market faced a deficit of around 300 million ounces in 2025 according to recent reports from The Silver Institute. While the market has been in deficit since 2016, the gap has grown significantly since 2022.
- SUPPLY CONSTRAINTS: SILVER PRODUCTION REMAINS AROUND 800 MILLION OUNCES PER YEAR. Annual production has held near 800 million ounces remaining largely unchanged since 2016. There is no clear indication that output will be meaningfully higher in 2026 or the following years.
- DEMAND REMAINS STRONG: SOLAR PANELS, ELECTRIC VEHICLES AND A.I. INFRASTRUCTURE. Silver demand is expected to increase in 2026 and beyond due to rising demand from solar production, electric vehicles, and rapidly expanding A.I. data center infrastructure.
SILVER MARKET: NEWS
- NEWS: CHINA ANNOUNCED EXPORT RESTRICTIONS STARTING 2026. Starting in 2026 China will enforce a licensing framework that replaces its previous quota system according to Global Times. This will effectively restrict 60–70% of the global silver supply to domestic use. China is the second largest silver producer in the world, responsible for 13% of total global supply, and second largest silver exporter in the world (11%). It is estimated that if China reduces exports by 50%, global deficits could exceed 5,000 metric tons annually.
- SAMSUNG SOLID-STATE BATTERIES: A NEW SOURCE OF SILVER DEMAND. Samsung is developing solid-state battery technology, which uses more silver than traditional lithium-ion batteries due to silver’s superior electrical conductivity.
EVENTS
- WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 7 AT 13:15 GMT: US ADP NONFARM EMPLOYMENT CHANGE (DECEMBER). A lower-than-expected reading could be positive for silver because it will indicate a worsening situation in the labor market, with the FED having more incentive to intervene by lowering interest rates.
- FRIDAY, JANUARY 9 AT 13:30 GMT: US NONFARM PAYROLLS (NFP) AND UNEMPLOYMENT RATE (DECEMBER). A lower-than-expected NFP reading could be positive for silver because it will signal a worsening situation in the labor market, with the FED having more incentive to intervene by lowering interest rates, thus potentially supporting silver.
