A very rare phenomenon has occurred in the commodities market.

Currently, the value of one ounce of silver has surpassed that of a barrel of crude oil. This ratio reversal last occurred during the lowest point of the 2020 economic crisis.

The market is speaking through prices: hard assets and hedging functions are worth much more than consumable energy. Such a significant breakout in this ratio is usually not accidental and often signals deeper market issues—central banks will soon have to take major intervention measures.

When such extreme signals occur frequently, it often indicates that a fierce market turmoil is brewing. All investors should pay close attention.

Is the silver-to-oil ratio reversing? Here we go again... Is this really going to crash this time?

Silver surpasses oil prices? It's really happening now. Is the nightmare of 2020 about to repeat?

Silver-Oil Ratio Inversion... Alright, this time it's really coming, the central bank has to take serious action. --- Another extreme signal? There's no such obvious arbitrage opportunity on-chain either, how distorted is this market? --- Still haven't learned the lesson from 2020? Every time they say "rare," it repeats again, the game equilibrium is so fragile. --- The appreciation of hard assets... feels more stable than doing short funds, consumption-based energy has completely become garbage. --- Signals before central bank intervention, I know this logic well, just like the on-chain performance before the testnet snapshot—extremely irrational. --- Silver surpassing oil? Where's the market efficiency? This is even more absurd than the gas wars. --- Indicating deeper problems? To put it nicely, it’s actually the system about to collapse, just wait and see how the central bank spins it. --- Such extreme ratios occur a few times a year, and it's still "rare," market memory is really short. --- Rational expectations have failed, everyone understands it better but it gets more chaotic, arbitrage opportunities evaporate rapidly. --- We need to re-examine the interaction costs of hedging assets, it seems that the issue of super oil shouldn't have happened at all.
