About v1.0 — Public-Data-Only This first release of the dashboard draws exclusively from publicly available sources (LBMA spot benchmark, Google Trends, and publicly-quoted Statista / BLS / MJSA summaries). Proprietary 25hours sales data is not used in this release — any future enriched version will be published separately and clearly marked. Anyone citing this page can treat it as a public-source digest without proprietary-data concerns.

Methodology

Dataset A (LBMA spot). The LBMA Silver Price is a benchmark auction-determined price published daily at 12:00 London time. Annual averages here are the arithmetic mean of daily fixings. Where a year's underlying data is still being finalized (most recent year), the published year-to-date average is used. Values rounded to two decimal places.

Dataset B (consumer profile). Percentages aggregate publicly-summarized findings from Statista research reports, US Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Expenditure Survey tabulations for jewelry, and MJSA annual industry reports. Source documents include representative samples of US consumers; individual-year precision varies. Rows are rounded to integer percentages; totals may deviate ±2% from 100% due to rounding.

Dataset C (search interest). Google Trends provides a normalized search-interest index (peak month = 100) rather than raw volume. Monthly averages here pool 2020–2024 to smooth out single-year noise. Absolute search volume is not available through the public Trends interface; relative seasonality is the meaningful signal.

Known limits of v1.0

  • No geographic granularity beyond US. International silver jewelry markets (EU, APAC, India) are out of scope until v2.
  • No channel breakdown. Online vs bricks-and-mortar, DTC vs retail — not included in v1 public aggregates.
  • No price elasticity or forecasts. Historical observation only; no model outputs.
  • Consumer demographics are survey-based. Self-reported; actual buyer demographics may differ.

An enriched v2.0 release with proprietary sales breakdowns is possible but not scheduled. For specific data requests, contact support@25hours.net.
