Silver’s rally in 2025 has stalled just under the key $36.00 psychological level. However, an artificial intelligence (AI) model is projecting that the metal could break above $40 within the next three months.
Currently, the metal is facing mild selling pressure as easing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East shift investor focus toward riskier assets. This rotation has limited demand for traditional safe-haven plays, such as silver.
At the time of writing, silver was trading at $35.99, down 0.1% from the prior session’s close.
AI predicts silver’s price
To assess silver’s outlook, Finbold consulted OpenAI’s ChatGPT, which forecasts the metal to hit at least $40 by the end of Q3. The model outlined a possible trading range of $42 to $52 per ounce, with a base target of $46.
The AI attributed the projected move to tightening supply-demand conditions, favorable macroeconomic trends, and a technical breakout that had been in the making for over a decade.
Silver has remained in a persistent supply deficit since 2021, driven by increasing demand for solar panels, electric vehicles, and electronics in the industrial sector.
At the same time, ChatGPT noted that a potential shift in U.S. monetary policy could also support the silver market. In this case, if the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates or signals a dovish stance, a weaker dollar could lift precious metals. Historically, such conditions have been bullish for silver.
Impact of gold on silver price
Additionally, the gold-to-silver ratio is another key variable flagged by the AI model. In strong commodity cycles, it tends to revert to the 60–70 range. If gold stays above $2,500, a corresponding move could push silver into the $45 and $50 range.
Technically, silver’s breakout above $35 is seen as confirmation of a multi-year base formation dating back to 2011.
Finally, the asset highlighted that the metal still faces possible risks of stalled growth. Specifically, a spike in rates, weakening demand from China, or supply disruptions could limit the upside, with silver potentially sliding back toward the $38 and $40 range.
