So how did markets perform in 2024? Commodities were decidedly mixed. Natural gas (NG) was the big winner for 2024, with gold +27.5%, silver +21.4%, copper +3.5%, and oil +0.1%.
The silver market presents a distinctly bullish outlook for the new year. In the very short-term, however, silver might still dip below USD 30 for a final flush out of any weak hands.
If silver holds the $30 support zone, that will break the cartel manipulation of the silver market. Once that happens, $40 is a piece of cake, $45 is likely, and $50 is possible for silver in 2025.
