BlockBeats News, December 28, According to a report released by KobeissiLetter, the search interest index (0-100 points) for “Silver” in Google Trends has risen to 83, reaching a new all-time high. Silver prices are expected to surge by 175% in 2025 and are likely to increase for the first time in 8 consecutive months since 1980. In just this year, the market value of gold and silver has increased by $16 trillion. So far this year, the gains of gold and silver are 4 times and 8 times those of the S&P 500 index, respectively, benefiting from the further weakening of the US dollar. As Trump is about to announce a new Federal Reserve chair candidate, the market expects the Fed to adopt a more dovish policy. On December 12, when asked what level he hopes interest rates will be at, Trump replied, “1%, or even lower.” Capital is flowing into the precious metals market as a safe-haven asset at an unprecedented speed. Bitcoin has fallen 6% so far this year, and KobeissiLetter believes that the crypto market is experiencing a mechanical bear market driven by over-leverage liquidations, with Bitcoin expected to recover in 2026.
