Silver prices held above $38.5 per ounce on Thursday, hovering near a three-week high as expectations for deeper Federal Reserve rate cuts this year supported the market. Softer US inflation data suggested President Donald Trump's tariffs are not adding to price pressures, while signs of labor market cooling reinforced the dovish outlook.
Markets have nearly fully priced in a September cut, with some anticipating a larger 50-basis-point move. Additionally, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called for multiple rate cuts and said the Fed could kick off the policy rate easing with a half-point reduction.
Beyond monetary policy, traders awaited US–Russia talks in Alaska on the Ukraine war. The White House described the planned Trump–Putin meeting as "a listening exercise," tempering hopes for a ceasefire breakthrough.
