Current price of silver as of Friday, March 27, 2026 - Fortune
Fortune's headline on silver reaching 69.9 today misses the forest for the trees. This isn't just a price point, it's a stark reminder of the underlying monetary inflation and insatiable industrial demand that continue to drive the metal higher. Anyone who thinks this is expensive hasn't been paying attention to the fundamentals for the last decade.
Consider the gold-silver ratio, currently sitting at 64.4:1 with gold at 4501.97. Historically, this ratio has trended much lower, often around 30:1, sometimes even 15:1. This disparity clearly illustrates that silver, despite its impressive gains, remains significantly undervalued compared to gold. The physical market is tightening, with premiums reflecting the real supply-demand dynamics that paper markets try to ignore.
For your stack, every pullback below 70 should be viewed as an opportunity. Keep watching the ratio for further compression. The long-term trajectory for silver remains firmly upward, irrespective of these mainstream headlines.
