Silver spot prices have surged to $82.52 per ounce as of April 18, 2026, up 4.7% intraday and over 130% from 2025 averages, propelled by the sixth straight annual supply deficit exceeding demand and strong investment flows as an inflation hedge amid geopolitical risks. Industrial fabrication faces headwinds with a projected 2% decline to 650 million ounces, yet solar panel and electronics demand sustains upside potential. Trader consensus prices in elevated volatility, with JPMorgan forecasting a $81 average for 2026; key catalysts include May CPI data (due mid-June) and the June FOMC meeting, where rate cut expectations could weaken the U.S. dollar and narrow the gold-silver ratio further from 59.

For CME Silver (SI) futures contracts, the Active Month is the nearest of CME's designated delivery-cycle months (March, May, July, September, December) that is not the spot month. The Active Month becomes a non-active month effective on its First Position Date, at which point the next eligible contract month becomes the Active Month.
Only the Active Month's official settlement price published by CME Group will be considered. Intraday trades, highs, lows, bids, offers, midpoint values, or indicative prices do not count.
Note that the settlement price may differ from the last traded price. CME's methodology to determine the settlement price can vary by commodity and contract.
Only days on which CME publishes an official settlement price for the Active Month will be included. Days without settlement prices (weekends, holidays, or market closures) are ignored.
This market will resolve based on the settlement price as it appears on the CME settlement page at the time it is first published for that trading day, regardless of any later corrections or updates.
The resolution source for this market is the CME Group website — specifically, the daily "Settlement" price for the Active Month of Silver (SI) futures.
