LIVE MARKET ALERT Silver futures traded lower at $58.95 per ounce, marking a 3.9% intraday decline as traders reduced exposure to precious metals. The pullback reflects profit-taking and repositioning after recent highs, with market participants reassessing momentum in both industrial and investment demand for the metal.
Analysts note that despite the correction, silver maintains a strong medium-term profile supported by ongoing demand from electronics and renewable energy sectors. However, short-term volatility could persist as traders react to movements in the U.S. dollar and fluctuations in Treasury yields that continue to influence metal valuations.
Key Drivers:
• Technical correction and profit-taking following recent highs.
• Stronger U.S. dollar and firmer Treasury yields weighing on precious metals demand.
