COMEX SILVER FUTURES
Silver futures are hedging tools for commercial producers and users of silver. They also provide global price discovery and opportunities for portfolio diversification. In addition, they offer:
- Trading opportunities based on expectations of directional price, spread movement or volatility
- Access to a highly liquid metals market
- The benefits of central clearing, including guaranteed counterparty credit and segregation of customer funds
- Price transparency, giving all market participants equal access while maintaining anonymity in all bids and offers
Silver's dual role as both a precious metal for investment as well as an industrial metal for commercial use makes our silver futures and options contracts invaluable financial instruments worldwide. Affected by mine production, industrial demand, and the general health of the world economy, the price of silver can be volatile beyond what many consider acceptable risk.
