Silver prices crash nearly 50% in 5 months. Is it still worth investing?

Silver prices have crashed nearly 50% over five months, driven by speculative unwinding, profit booking after a historic rally, and a more cautious US Federal Reserve stance on rate cuts. Underlying supply-demand fundamentals remain stable, with no significant demand collapse, suggesting the correction is sentiment-driven rather than structurally driven. In India, a weakening rupee and upcoming festive and wedding season could provide some near-term support to domestic silver prices, though high volatility limits its appeal as a store of value.
