The price of silver has been at an all time low in recent months, making it substantially lower than gold. Sitting at roughly $15.50 (1/7/19) per ounce, this makes it a great time to buy silver. In the last month, silver has been on the rise and is expected to continue throughout 2019. As you can see in the chart below, the trends of silver have been up and down in 2018.
