While investors' interest in gold is soaring, it’s also a great time to look at silver as a compelling alternative.

• Silver demand has outpaced supply for the 4th consecutive year.
• Gold to silver ratio is at 88:1 well above the long-term average of 65:1 indicating that silver is undervalued.
• Indicators suggest that silver still is relatively attractive v/s gold and like gold silvers extended up more still pending.

Why Now?
Silver offers a more attractive entry point relative to gold and could be the undervalued gem in your portfolio.

Word of Caution
Silver is a very volatile commodity and often moves wildly. It is not for everyone, especially not for the faint hearted. Most investors are better off having it as part of a Multi Asset Allocation strategy through an MF.

For others who understand these nuances having some exposure to this commodity using silver FOF could make sense.

Silver currently trades at  $ 32.9/ troy, ounce and rupees 96000 per kg.

• Those who invested in covid crisis (2020), ILFS crises (2018, currency and BoP crisis (2013), GFC (2008) made money so always remember, one should invest aggressively when there’s blood on the street.
