ETFs tracking silver prices rose again +4,03% yesterday and registered +$298,50M of inflows. Over the last 30 days, they rallied +29,74% with impressive cumulative flows of +$2,4Bn. If investors had initially turned their attention to gold during the pandemic sell-offs in late march, it has been a different story since business reopened globally. Much of silver demand is derived from industrial use cases and the precious metal appears to be at the core of some structural and technological shifts such as the implementation of a 5G network. Silver ETFs saw record inflows this year with +$4,9Bn. Their year-to-date performance is now standing at +28,89% and therefore largely offset March losses. 27 funds tracking 9 indices are part of the segment for a total of $19Bn of assets under management.
