At 9 AM ET today, May 27, 2026, gold is trading at $4,446.80 per ounce (down 1.92%) and silver is at $74.92 per ounce (down 2.32%), establishing a gold-to-silver ratio of 59.35. Because silver experienced a slightly sharper percentage drop this morning due to its volatile dual identity as both a monetary and industrial asset, the ratio compressed slightly from yesterday's metrics. Historically, a ratio near 59:1 is remarkably low compared to old historical averages above 80:1, illustrating that silver continues to maintain significant, long-term relative strength against gold thanks to secular industrial growth in the tech sector.
