伦敦和纽约等重要白银仓库的库存持续下滑，降幅显著。低库存使得市场应对需求变化的能力变弱。 图：2025-2031年汽车领域白银需求预测 近期，白银表现非常抢眼，价格创下历史新高。今年以来，白银涨幅已超过90%，比黄金还要出色。 这背后的逻辑并不复杂，主要是两件事撞在一起了：白银这东西本身就不够用，而借钱买它的成本又变便宜了。 白银市场供应正变得越来越紧张。全球白银已经连续五年不够用了，预计2025年的缺口高达2950吨。 为什么白银不够用了呢？主要有以下三个原因： 01全球矿产白银产量在降低。 白银大部分是开采铜、铅、锌等金属时顺便产出的，专门的白银矿很少。即使银价上涨，产量也很难快速增加。 02库存也在减少。 如果小伙伴们认为这是一个非常不错的投资机会，那就要认真看看白银的风险。 首先，白银波动性更大一些。白银市场规模比黄金小得多，同样规模的资金进出容易引起价格的大幅波动。这意味着潜在收益可能更高，风险也更大。 其次，如果你留意白银市场，就需要关注全球白银库存变化、美联储的货币政策动向以及光伏等银需求大的行业发展情况。 03白银需求却在猛增。 白银在工业领域用途广泛，特别是光伏太阳能电池板，需要消耗大量白银 ...

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant information provided 2. Core Views - Overseas macro: The Fed's interest rate meeting was overall dovish. With the US fundamentals and inflation both in a downward trend, the soft - landing trade driven by liquidity further heated up. The SEP of this meeting showed an upward adjustment in economic growth outlook and a slight downward adjustment in inflation expectations. The nomination of the new Fed chair may be confirmed early next year, and the probability of the relatively dovish candidate Hassett being nominated is increasing. Before his nomination and assumption of office, it may be the most fluent stage for trading on liquidity easing expectations and Fed independence risks [7]. - Domestic macro: The tone of the December Politburo meeting and the Central Economic Work Conference was moderately positive. It is expected that the overall intensity of macro - policies in 2026 will be roughly the same as in 2025, continuing the idea of counter - cyclical and cross - cyclical balance [7]. - Asset views: The current macro environment is still beneficial to the precious metals sector and non - ferrous metal varieties with high financial attributes such as copper and aluminum. Attention should also be maintained on other non - ferrous varieties (tin, lithium carbonate). Domestic equities are conservative at the end of the year and during the policy window period. The combination of strong demand for industrial products from emerging markets and expected interest rate cuts in the US is favorable for industrial commodities. The supply - demand fundamentals of copper and aluminum are still tight, which may stimulate their further strengthening. The equity - index futures may lack upward momentum after the important meetings, and are relatively defensive [7]. 3.
