Silver Headed Back To Test Recent All-Time Highs (Likely Headed $70-$100 in 2026), Tether Quietly Boosting Gold Demand, Deutsche Bank Raises Gold Forecast to $4,450 in 2026, AI was 90% of GDP Growth In 1st Half of 2025

Silver just did exactly what strong markets do at major thresholds — it didn’t hesitate.

It accelerated.

Breaking $52 with this kind of force is the market saying, “The ceiling wasn’t resistance… it was a springboard.”

This is the signature move that precedes violent retests of all-time highs:
tight compression → explosive breach → vertical follow-through.

Silver isn’t lifting off — it’s transitioning into a new phase of the cycle.

The physical shortage narrative is now being priced in real time.

Silver just flipped the script from defense to offense.

Holding above ~$52.5 doesn’t just end the correction — it confirms buyers crushed the down-channel and opens a runway toward $70–$100 into 2026.

Translation: the market tried to send silver lower, it refused… now all that positioning and macro risk rotation has to chase it higher.

Open interest isn’t “collapsing” by accident — it’s collapsing because the contracts are being dragged into real delivery.

Gold OI: lowest since August.
Silver OI: lowest since May.

That’s what it looks like when paper traders step aside and the physical market takes over.

Add in the Dec–Jan seasonal FOMO and you get a powder keg with a lit fuse.

Paper is drying up, physical is taking over, and the next wave of speculators is about to chase price into a vertical move.

Deutsche Bank inching its gold target up to $4,450 isn’t “optimism” — it’s self-preservation.

Big banks only raise forecasts when they’re certain the floor is already higher.

If they’re publishing $4,450… they expect reality to land north of it.

The U.S. is quietly doing exactly what China did: nationalizing gold ownership through its corporations.

Tether, JPM, and others are becoming America’s shadow sovereign wealth fund — buying metal because we know a currency reset is coming.

AI isn’t “driving the economy.”

AI is propping up the illusion of an economy that’s otherwise stalling out.

Over 90% of GDP growth coming from one sector is not strength — it’s fragility dressed up as innovation.

And here’s the punchline:

AI doesn’t solve the debt-to-GDP gap.

AI supercharges energy demand… which widens the gap and accelerates the pressure on a system already cracking.

That’s the part nobody’s pricing in:

Exploding energy demand → soaring energy costs → industrial metals moonshot.

The world is betting AI will save the macro system.

In reality, it’s helping set the stage for the biggest silver bull run in modern history.
