PALM BEACH, Fla., Nov. 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Economic uncertainty, a major driver of the present precious metal market recovery, looms big, in the global financial arena. Precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum, and palladium have traditionally been considered safe-haven investments, but current market conditions have increased the value of these assets. In an era of economic turbulence and uncertainty, precious metals shine as a beacon of financial security. Concerns about the purchasing power of money have increased the appeal of gold, silver, platinum, and palladium. The low-interest-rate environment, which central banks have maintained to spur economic recovery, has made traditional interest-bearing investments less appealing. Investors have also become more concerned about stock market volatility and the ever-present risk of a market correction or disaster. Economic instability has created a desire for diversity, pushing investors to add precious metals to their portfolios to limit risks and hedge against the chance of a quick market recession. A report from Fact.MR projects that the global precious metals market is projected to reach a valuation of US$ 445.76 billion by 2033. It said the gold segment has witnessed a surge in demand over the past few years and accounted for a market share of around 81.5% in 2022 and the silver segment is forecasted to expand at a CAGR of 2.5% over the next 10 years. Active mining companies in markets include: Regency Silver Corp. (OTCQB: RSMXF) (TSX-V: RSMX), Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (NYSE: AEM) (TSX: AEM), Hercules Silver Corp.
