LIVE MARKET ALERT Silver futures slipped to 83.54 per ounce, marking a 1.96% decline during the session as investors reassessed risk exposure amid shifting interest rate expectations and muted industrial demand signals. The move reflects light profit-taking following recent gains and cautious positioning ahead of potential macroeconomic data releases.
Market participants indicate that the softening momentum in silver may continue in the short term if economic sentiment remains uncertain and the U.S. dollar sustains its strength. However, long-term fundamentals tied to renewable energy applications and manufacturing demand could still provide an underlying floor for the metal.
Key Drivers:
• Stronger U.S. dollar and rising Treasury yields weighing on precious metal appeal.
• Industrial demand uncertainty and reduced speculative inflows curbing market momentum.
