About SLV
The iShares Silver Trust ETF provides investors with a physically-backed exposure to silver, offering a hedge against inflation and market volatility. It tracks the LBMA Silver Price, eliminating the complexities of futures contracts and providing a realistic pricing of the metal. This fund is suitable for investors seeking a safe haven during times of market uncertainty, but may not be ideal for long-term buy-and-hold strategies.
