ALERT: Silver Demand Reaches Three-Year High
https://kingworldnews.com/the-…-reaches-three-year-high/
-------------------
In the automotive sector, silver is used in small quantities, but in many components. Safety features, such as embedded silver-ceramic lines for windshield defogging, and infotainment systems are great examples.
---------------------
Despite its long-term growth trend, silver demand from the photovoltaic sector fell by 9% last year to 80.5 million ounces after double-digit percentage growth between 2015-2017. Despite record global installations in 2018, this was the first decline since 2014 and was due to ongoing thrifting of silver loadings. Thrifting and material substitution is a trend not inherently unique to silver but is present across commodities markets, as downstream manufacturers strive to lower costs.
