Silver Corrects to USD 65 – Speculators Are Worried, Industry Is Celebrating! Silver North, Infineon, and Micron Technologies in Focus
Incredible! Yesterday, silver fell back to USD 65 after hitting a record high of USD 122 in January. The metal had also hovered around this level in December, before the major futures market coverage frenzy swept through the capital markets. A huge stroke of luck for producers, as margins had improved by USD 70 per ounce within six weeks - a boon also for explorers like Silver North, who were able to assign entirely different values to their resources. A curse, however, for industry, which relies heavily on critical metals and now has almost no capacity left to acquire on open markets. It is conceivable that some industrial sectors will report serious shortages in the coming months. We take a closer look at the silver market and its key players.

Occidental Petroleum, Silver Viper, Micron Technology – New and old favorites
Debt reduction, geopolitical tailwinds, and a technical breakout in the energy sector are meeting structural supply shortages in precious metals and AI-driven demand for memory chips. While oil and gas producers are benefiting from "energy dominance" and tight supply conditions, silver explorers with high-grade projects offer leverage to the next upswing in precious metals. At the same time, semiconductor stocks are igniting the next stage of the AI supercycle, driven by scarcity, rising prices, and exploding data center demand.

More than defense - How Almonty's tungsten makes AI chips from Intel and Micron possible
Tungsten is considered a critical metal worldwide—the defense industry in particular cannot do without it. But tungsten is also a high-tech metal. Without this element, which only melts at 3,400 degrees Celsius, has low resistance, and offers extremely high electrical conductivity, computer chips would not exist. The AI boom would be unthinkable without tungsten – the many data centers currently springing up around the world could not be built. We show how companies from the chip industry, such as Intel and Micron, are securing their supply and explain why Almonty is a blessing for the chip industry.
