Data collected from Bloomberg and Barclays show that investment through silver-backed exchange-traded products is at a record of 19,114 tons globally, which is approximately nine months of mine output. Additionally, the U.S. mint has reported that they have temporarily sold out of 2013 American Eagle Silver coins. So far in January silver sales have totaled 6,007,000 troy ounces, more than double 2012's average monthly sales of 2,811,875, according to data from the Mint.
"Some investors see poor man's gold as a cheaper alternative to the yellow metal and are allocating to it," said Mark O'Byrne, executive director of GoldCore Ltd. "Allocations to silver remain very small which suggests that the holdings could go higher resulting in higher silver prices again in 2013."
