three ounces of physical silver bar and coin compared to the rest of the world.\u00a0 And, that\u2019s not all.\u00a0 If we also consider total Silver ETF demand, the U.S. based SLV ETF has seen its inventories increase by over 200 million oz in 2020.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thus, Americans have purchased nearly half of all the global physical and ETF silver investment this year<\/strong>.\u00a0

Silver Interim Report<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0for the Silver Institute, the U.S. is projected to see a 62% increase in physical silver bar and coin demand this year over 2019.\u00a0 Based on the 2020 World Silver Survey data, total U.S. physical silver demand was 48.2 million oz (Moz) last year.\u00a0 Simple math puts the total estimate for U.S. silver bar and coin demand at 78 Moz in 2020.\u00a0\u00a0<strong>With global physical silver investment to be 237 Moz this year, the U.S. accounts for one-third of the total.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
