Silver Holds Key Levels as Volatility Drives Market Action

According to an April 12 update from Excelsior Prosperity with Shad Marquitz, silver pricing had remained within a wide range, with the metal closing the prior week at US$76.48 after recovering from a decline to US$61.21 on March 23. The report noted that this marked “a 3rd week in a row of green candles, in this relief rally in the silver price,” and added that the move occurred while holding above the 50-week Exponential Moving Average support level of US$58.71. The same update highlighted earlier volatility, stating that silver had reached “the all-time intra-week high on January 29 at US$121.78″ before reversing to US$63.90 the following week. It also stated that “the overall larger trend is still bullish, and the March correction has not invalidated that trend,” while noting that silver would need to hold above US$61.21 on a daily and weekly basis.

Catherine Brock wrote on April 13 that silver futures opened at US$73.69 per ounce, down 3.6% from the previous close of US$76.48, before rising to US$74.47 in early trading. The report stated that the latest CPI data showed March prices increased 3.3%, the largest gain since April 2024, with higher gas prices related to the Iran war identified as the primary contributor. It added that “absent other factors, higher interest rates typically reduce gold demand and pricing,” while also noting that escalating geopolitical tensions contributed to market uncertainty.

In a separate April 13 analysis, Muhammad Umair wrote that “gold and silver faced initial pressure as rising geopolitical tensions and a surge in oil prices triggered volatility and risk-off sentiment.” The report stated that silver had rebounded from a support zone near US$60 and was consolidating above the US$72 level, adding that “as long as silver remains above US$60, the structure still suggests an upward move.” It also noted that industrial demand factors influenced silver, stating that “silver demand will be determined by the strength of industrial demand as costs increase,” while broader market conditions, including inflation and energy prices, contributed to uncertainty in pricing.

Third Party Commentary Highlights Breakout Momentum and Royalty Model Validation

In a January 14 report from John Newell of John Newell & Associates, he reiterated his prior rating on the company as a “Speculative Buy,” stating that “since the original article … was published in late December, the company has moved decisively higher.” He wrote that “what was previously a constructive base has now resolved into a strong upside breakout, validating both the technical setup and the underlying silver royalty thesis.”

Newell also detailed price performance relative to prior targets, stating that the stock “has successfully reached all three previously identified upside targets,” including “first target: CA$7.75 met,” “second target: CA$9.00 met,” and “third target: CA$10.25 met.” He added that “the move has been accompanied by strong volume expansion,” and noted that “price has pushed well above former resistance, which now shifts into a potential support zone.”

He further stated that “with the intermediate targets achieved, focus now shifts to the big picture objective at CA$12.50 [met],” which he described as aligning “with longer-term resistance and valuation expansion implied by improving silver fundamentals and portfolio growth.” In the same report, he also wrote that “the combination of price confirmation and governance enhancement materially improves the overall risk-reward profile.”

According to an April 8 report from Peter Krauth, the company’s financial and operational performance was discussed, with Krauth stating that “Silver Crown delivered a strong and transformative 2025, marked by impressive revenue growth and a rapidly expanding silver royalty portfolio.” He added that the company reported “record revenue of CA$1.23 million, driven by higher minimum silver deliveries of 22,281 ounces,” noting that this represented “standout growth of 53% year-over-year in deliveries and 112% in revenue.”

Krauth also addressed asset-level developments, stating that the company “expanded its portfolio with key acquisitions,” including a royalty on the Igor 4 Project in Peru and exposure to the Scotia Mine in Nova Scotia. He further noted that “the PGDM Complex in Brazil faced temporary setbacks,” while “the Elk Gold Mine experienced a pause in operations following a change in ownership,” and that “progress at the BacTech bioleaching facility in Ecuador has been slower than expected.”

In the same April 8 report, Peter Bures, CEO, stated, “2025 was a formative year for your company. We structured and acquired multiple royalties (specifically PPX and EDM), positioning us for aggressive revenue growth in 2026.” He added that “with over CA$7 million in cash and silver bullion on our balance sheet, we can add additional royalties without further dilution,” and noted that “our pipeline remains robust and we continue to advance a number of royalty opportunities.”
