by Jerry RobinsonSilver spent the week struggling to hold above $55 as it continues to trade below its 200 SMA and 50 SMA. Silver enjoyed an incredibly strong 2025, rising around 145%. Last year’s historic rally comes after silver delivered more than a 20% gain in 2024. This is all a big improvement over 2023’s small loss and 2022’s 2% gain. Silver lost 11.6% in 2021.
