Anyone else here tracking industrial silver demand for their IRA?

• •I'm sitting on a decent chunk, around $300k, mostly in physical gold and some silver, kept with a reputable vaulting service down in Delaware.
• •But lately, I've been really focused on the silver side of things.
• •I'm talking about sustained demand that isn't just a cyclical blip because of the green energy transition and further digitalization.

I've been dipping my toes into the Gold IRA world for about a year now since I cashed out some RSUs when I left my last tech gig – looking to diversify outside of just stocks and real estate, especially with everything going on in the market. I'm sitting on a decent chunk, around $300k, mostly in physical gold and some silver, kept with a reputable vaulting service down in Delaware. But lately, I've been really focused on the silver side of things.

My question for the community here is, how much weight are you all giving to industrial demand when you're looking at silver's long-term prospects within your precious metals IRA? I know a lot of the traditional advice focuses on silver's role as a monetary metal and its correlation with gold, but with all the chatter about EVs, solar (especially with California's push), and electronics, it feels like industrial consumption could be a massive, perhaps even underestimated, factor moving forward. I'm talking about sustained demand that isn't just a cyclical blip because of the green energy transition and further digitalization.

I'm trying to wrap my head around whether the current supply projections can truly meet this accelerating demand, or if we're heading for some serious shortages that could send prices through the roof. I mean, obviously, I'm hoping for that latter scenario, but I also want to be realistic. Are there any specific reports or analysts you follow that delve deep into industrial silver statistics? Or maybe you've got a different take entirely. Would love to hear how you're factoring this into your storage decisions or allocation strategy.
