  Money
  

  Silver is a precious metal that is commonly traded on exchanges or through brokers. It is much more affordable than gold and thanks to its importance as an industrial metal as well as its volatility, it is widely traded. For traders in precious metals, gold is a much more popular market. Large institutions buy gold as a currency hedge when real interest rates and returns on other assets become unacceptable. Central banks will buy gold, not silver, as a reserve asset to diversify their currency exposure. Instead, money functions more strongly as a commodity than as a currency. Silver, also known as the white metal, is commonly tied to gold and the relationship between the two often dictates its price. The entire silver market is currently only worth around $540 billion, making it much smaller than other markets. Despite its smaller market share, the price of silver can swing wildly without much money entering it. The supply of silver is only increasing by 1-3% each year, and about half of the market is consumed by industry (unlike gold, which is more limited in its use). In August 2020, there were 19.2 billion ounces of silver reserves in the world (meeting certain purity standards) against 1.83 billion ounces of gold reserves. Both are typical offerings from retail brokers. Investing in silver CFDs saves you the hassle of paying for silver storage. Additionally, CFDs give you the ability to trade silver both ways. Many retail investors prefer to trade silver through CFDs with brokers because there are no large fees for physical delivery or commission which can erode potential profits.
