Silver has surged around 150% this year, breaking above $80 per ounce in late December for the first time and outperforming major equity indexes and currencies. However, the metal has pulled back significantly over the last few days and currently sits around $71.80

The metal has benefited from its designation as a critical U.S. mineral, persistent supply constraints and historically low inventories.

Meanwhile, spot $XAU gold has climbed around 64% in 2025, hitting record highs as central bank purchases and risk-off positioning supported prices. However, the pullback in gold over the last few sessions has seen it fall from over $4,500 per ounce to its current level just above $4,300.

In an October note, analysts at HSBC raised their 2026 gold price forecast, predicting the yellow metal will hit $5,000 per ounce amid broad uncertainty.

Analysts have recently noted that many of the forces shaping this year’s surge are expected to persist into 2026, alongside ongoing geopolitical risks and robust industrial demand.

Major gaps remain in today’s global financial system, with 1.4 billion people still unbanked. Bybit’s move toward becoming more “bank-like” aims to address these structural shortcomings.
