LIVE MARKET ALERT Silver prices retreated in intraday trade, declining 1.34% to 87.67 per ounce. The market movement reflects a moderation in investor appetite following stronger performance in recent sessions, as participants reassess prospects for industrial consumption and potential shifts in manufacturing activity.
Market sentiment remains cautious as liquidity conditions narrow and speculative positioning lightens across key metals exchanges. Analysts observe that soft demand signals from major industries could pressure near-term momentum, while continued central bank monitoring of inflation dynamics keeps broader commodity sentiment mixed.
Key Drivers:
• Reduced expectations for industrial demand impacting silver’s dual role as a precious and industrial metal.
• Broader risk-off tone across commodities limiting speculative buying interest.
