LIVE MARKET ALERT Silver futures traded at $71.46 per ounce, slipping 1.88% in intraday dealings as investors monitored broader commodity sentiment and adjusted exposure to precious metals.

Market participants highlighted a general softening in safe-haven appetite amid steady U.S. dollar flows and firm Treasury yields. Technical charts indicated resistance near recent highs, prompting some short-term selling as traders assessed momentum signals across key macro benchmarks.
Key Drivers:
• Reduced safe-haven demand as the U.S. dollar steadied against major peers.
• Ongoing profit-taking by short-term traders following extended price gains.
