\nSilver Miners will Outperform Silver in the Forthcoming Bull Run!<\/span><\/strong>
\n<\/span>
\nDespite the expectations of a rate hike by the FED, in December of 2016, silver has remained close to its\u2019 highs (as shown in the chart below). After a stellar run, the \u201cwhite metal\u201d is consolidating near its\u2019 highs, while anticipating its\u2019 next imminent breakout.
\nAlong with investing in the \u201cwhite metal\u201d directly, investors should also use this consolidation in silver to look at the silver miners, which offer excellent returns during silver bull runs.

\nSupply and Demand for Silver:<\/strong>
\n\u201cIndustrial demand is set to increase, driven by rising incomes and growing penetration of technology in populous, developing nations, as well as new uses are being found for silver\u2019s anti-bacterial and reflective properties in everything from hospital paints to Band-Aids to windows\u201d, reports Bloomberg, who expects the industrial demand to surge within the next few years.
\nIndia and China will need approximately a billion smartphones and tablets by 2020. Demand for silver is expected to remain buoyant and demand will remain ahead of supply.
\n\u201cOver the next ten or twenty years, more and more people are going to be using these devices, however silver is a very limited commodity. \u201cThere\u2019s just not a lot of it around\u201d according to Keith Neumeyer, CEO of First Majestic Silver Corp.
\nIt is this that most likely is what led a major Japanese electronics player to First Majestic in attempts to secure its\u2019 future silver supply, which is a sign of a tightening supply.
\n\u201cFor an electronics manufacturer to come directly to us- that tells me something is changing in the market; I think we\u2019ll see three-digit silver,\u201d said Neumeyer<\/a> to Bloomberg.
\nThe Solar industry is booming, as well. Solar power is taking over conventional power sources and that is good news for silver, as the solar industry is likely to consume more than 13% of the total silver demand in 2016. Similarly, ethylene oxide producers will also consume 25%<\/a> more silver as compared to the previous year.
\n“Silver demand had a phenomenal 2015, with retail investment and jewelry fabrication both reaching all-time highs,” wrote Frank Holmes<\/a> of US Global Investors in a post in early July 2016.
\nOn the other hand, silver mine production is expected to drop for the first time since 2002 as mining production dips 5% during the current year.
\nWhy invest in silver miners along with silver?<\/strong>
\nAfter having established that silver prices are likely to increase further, due to supply shortage and increased demand, let\u2019s review the best possible mode of investment in silver so as to maximize our profits.
\nDuring silver bull markets, the silver miners are favored by the investors while their prices increase much more than the price of the \u201cwhite metal\u201d. As the cost of production remains the same, the miners gain huge profits when silver prices move up.
\nHence, traders prefer the silver miners, once the next Elliott Wave count is confirmed. This is the reason for the sharp 170% run-up in the stock prices of Silver Wheaton (SLW), a “blue chip” silver-streaming company.

\nFor every $1.00 increase in silver prices, the silver miner has increased by more than $3.00, which indicates that the silver miners are a better trade than the underlying metal.
\nHowever, when silver corrects, the silver miners tend to underperform the \u201cwhite metal\u201d. The silver miners behave as the leveraged plays of silver which are rising and falling far more than the underlying white metal is.
\nThe Global X Silver Miners ETF (SIL) offers an excellent opportunity to the investors to enjoy the advantages of the silver miners with reduced risk, compared to owning single mining stocks. The ETF has seen a whopping rally from its\u2019 lows of below $15.00 to the current price of $51.59.

\nEven after the phenomenal rise, the ETF is still well below its 2011 high of $94.00. (as shown in the chart below)

Traders can keep an eye on SIL to accumulate on dips.<\/center>
\nConclusion:<\/strong>
\nSilver has put a bottom in place and will continue to move even higher, in the coming months and years. In order to benefit from this rise, traders should keep an eye on the silver miners, which act as leveraged plays for the underlying \u2018white metal\u2019. With silver booming, silver miners\u2019 prices will continue to skyrocket higher.
\nHowever, every rally faces corrections, hence, the right time to buy is when the \u201crisk-reward\u201d is favorable. Keep following my articles and analysis for the right time to enter this ETF<\/a>.
