Demand for silver continues to rise sharply, driven primarily by the technology, electric vehicle, and solar power sectors—where silver is highly sought after due to its superior electrical conductivity. Meanwhile, silver supply remains limited because many mines only produce silver as a byproduct of copper, lead, or zinc—so even when prices rise, production does not immediately respond.Due to the combination of rising demand and slow supply growth, the silver market has recorded a structural deficit for several consecutive years. This provides a strong fundamental basis for the potential...
Gold prices surged to a new high of $3,875.53 per ounce, extending their rally to four consecutive days. This surge occurred as investors grew concerned about a possible US government shutdown, which could delay the release of important data like nonfarm payrolls and fuel interest in safe-haven assets like gold. So far this year, gold has risen more than 47%, heading for its biggest annual gain since 1979. Positive sentiment was driven by massive buying by global central banks and a surge in demand for gold-backed ETFs, along with expectations that the Fed will continue to cut interest...
The price of silver is currently hovering around $46 per ounce, up slightly after a correction earlier this week. This increase occurred amid cautious market sentiment, which is still monitoring the risk of a US government shutdown and the direction of the Fed's interest rates.

Gold fell on Tuesday (September 30th), pressured by a strengthening US dollar and rising Treasury yields, which increased the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets. After rallying to a new record above $3,800, the market was also overshadowed by profit-taking, dampening buying momentum.

Looking ahead, the focus is on the Fed's signals and the release of US data that could alter expectations of an...
Gold hit another record high of $3,854 per ounce, driven by concerns over a potential US government shutdown, prompting investors to seek safe-haven assets. So far this year, gold prices have risen 46%, marking their best annual rate since 1979. Meanwhile, Treasury yields maintained their gains after a previous rally, and the US dollar strengthened slightly following President Donald Trump's decision to impose a 10% tariff on lumber imports. In Asia, stocks rose 0.2%, marking their sixth consecutive month of gains, with Zijin Gold International surging 66% on its Hong Kong trading...
Silver strengthened above $46.90 per troy ounce in European trading today, Monday (September 29, 2025).

Furthermore, expectations that the Fed will begin cutting interest rates in the coming...
