<p>Macroeconomic strategist Lyn Alden pointed out that driven by fiscal dominance and currency depreciation, silver is expected to challenge the $100 mark in 2026, but its era of "low-risk high-return" asymmetric trading has come to an end. As valuations gradually repair, silver has currently entered a "symmetric phase" where the probabilities of rising and falling are more balanced. She emphasized that whether silver surges to $100 or pulls back to $40 next year, it would not be surprising</p>

- Lyn Alden, a macro strategist, suggests that silver could reach $100 by 2026, but warns the "low risk, high reward" phase may be over as silver prices have surged.  
- She highlights that current market dynamics indicate a transition to "structural gradual money printing" by the Federal Reserve, amidst rising inflation and declining dollar purchasing power.  
- Alden remains optimistic about hard assets like silver and gold but advises caution regarding their short-term volatility and less asymmetric risk moving forward.

Lyn Alden: Silver may hit $100 in 2026, but it is no longer a "low-risk, high-reward" opportunity
