    Silver Rebounds to $64 on Sustained Data Center Demand

    Question

    Silver Rebounds to $64 on Sustained Data Center Demand

    Direct answer

    Silver has staged a significant recovery, surpassing $64/oz as investors pivot to the metal's role in AI hardware. Unlike gold, which remains sensitive to real rates, silver is benefiting from the massive capital expenditure in data centers, where its conductivity is essential for high-performance computing components. Producer stocks like Wheaton Precious Metals (WPM) and First Majestic (AG) are seeing renewed interest as the industrial demand floor rises.
