The Kobeissi Letter(@KobeissiLetter):Silver miners are sitting on a record cash pile: Net cash balance across the top 10 silver mining companies surged to a record ~$4.2 billion in Q2 2026. This figure has more than doubled since Q3 2025. This marks a sharp reversal from the 2014-2024 period, when debt exceeded cash levels for most quarters. To put this into perspective, during the 2010-2011 rally, combined net cash balance among these companies never exceeded $2.0 billion. Cash accumulation has accelerated sharply alongside the silver rally, as higher silver prices have boosted margins and free cash flow across the group. Silver miners have never been this liquid.
