Silver just broke through $77 per ounce, gaining over $5 in a single day—that's remarkable. For perspective, this one-day rally alone exceeds what an ounce of silver cost back when I first began accumulating physical silver two decades ago. Over the past twenty years, physical silver has consistently delivered returns that dwarf those of major equity indices like the S&P 500. The gains speak for themselves: what once seemed like patient, long-term positioning has compound into serious wealth creation. Not every traditional asset class can claim that kind of performance track record against the benchmark.
