Using its guile, the snake finished in sixth place.

The price of Silver, like many other commodities, tends to be driven by a combination of supply and demand metrics as well as speculation. Whilst the price of Silver is well known for being more volatile than Gold due to its smaller market size, lower market liquidity as well as ever-changing supply and demand from the industrial sector and its properties as a store of value over long periods of time.

Silver is well regarded as a safe-haven asset for investors during times of economic upheaval, uncertainty and financial stress. The market conditions applicable to Silver, are much like that for Gold, and tend to be driven by monetary policy, the value of the US dollar, geopolitical concerns, physical demand as well as the available supply from mining production.
