flag Silver crashed 5% on Jan. 15, 2026, after hitting $100/oz, triggering profit-taking amid speculation and illiquidity.

flag Silver plunged 5% on January 15, 2026, after reaching record highs near $100 an ounce, triggering profit-taking amid heightened speculation. flag The drop followed a 25.9% two-week surge fueled by investor rotation from gold, central bank demand, and a narrowing silver-to-gold ratio. flag Prices had soared from $38 to $93 an ounce in East Texas and globally, driven by inflation concerns and increased access through retirement accounts. flag Despite strong trading volumes and ETF inflows, few buyers were active locally, with most customers selling stored bullion. flag Analysts attribute the volatility to market psychology and the metal’s illiquidity, not fundamental shifts.
