News and Insights

Pan American Silver announced exploration success at its La Colorada mine in Mexico, discovering at least four new high-grade veins with silver assays exceeding 1,000 g/t in 40% of drill holes. The company plans to incorporate these findings into a phased development plan targeting higher-grade zones, with results expected in a mineral reserve update by June 30, 2026. However, the stock traded down 1.87% in premarket, with technical indicators showing mixed momentum despite the positive exploration news.

Pan American Silver's stock has surged over 30% this year as record silver prices and increased production drive growth.

Silver is entering its sixth consecutive year of structural deficit, with experts forecasting the new normal around $70 per ounce and J.P. Morgan predicting an average of $81 per ounce for the year. However, silver's historical volatility poses risks to investors.

The killing of CJNG cartel leader El Mencho on February 22 has triggered widespread violence across Mexico, threatening silver mining operations in key producing regions. Mexico is the world's largest silver producer, with major mines in Jalisco, Michoacán, Zacatecas, and Durango—territories historically controlled by the CJNG. The resulting cartel fragmentation poses risks to global silver supply, mining company valuations, and logistics chains, with potential for market manipulation through coordinated financial and operational attacks on vulnerable junior miners.

Economist Peter Schiff criticizes the disconnect between silver's 35% December surge and silver mining stocks' modest 11% gain, arguing mining stocks should have doubled given their typical leveraged exposure to the metal. Despite silver's historic rally and 154.57% year-to-date gains, major mining stocks and ETFs have significantly underperformed, presenting what Schiff views as an attractive buying opportunity.
