Hedge your Silver & Gold from price drops
A profitable year at the counter can still be a losing year on the shelf.
What a price move does to your inventory

Illustrative model only. The hedged line assumes a protective structure with a floor at the level you choose and an estimated cost of 5%, 3% or 2% of inventory value for tight, standard and wide protection. Actual pricing depends on market conditions and your inventory.
Silver went from $120 to $60 in 2026
Silver peaked near $121 on January 29, 2026 and traded around $60 by mid-year. That is half the value of the metal on your shelf.
Change the profit from the shop to see what that did to your year, with and without a full hedge.
Your year, with and without a hedge
Example: 1,000 oz of silver. A 100% hedge offsets the full price move, before the cost of the hedge, which depends on how it is structured. Prices are approximate: a peak near $121 on January 29, 2026 and about $60 in mid-2026. Gold is not included. Past performance does not predict future results.
What a hedge does
A hedge works like insurance on the metal in your case. You pay a known cost. If prices fall, the hedge offsets most of the loss. If prices rise, you keep the gain, less that cost.
Without a hedge
Every price decline comes out of your pocket. The books look fine until someone marks the inventory to market.
With a hedge
Your worst case is set in advance. You know your downside before the market moves.
