Silver opened at 43,958 at the start of the Asian session, holding near its highest level in over 14 years. Market sentiment remains positive after the Fed cut interest rates last week, which has increased the demand for non-yielding assets like gold and silver. Additional support comes from industrial demand, particularly in China's renewable energy and solar panels, which continues to maintain high demand for silver. Furthermore, geopolitical tensions between Russia and NATO have strengthened investor interest in safe-haven assets. Fund flows into precious metal-based ETFs have also...
Silver hovered around $38,605 during the Asian session on Thursday (August 28th), slightly correcting from the $39.00 area with limited volatility. Intraday, $38.50 serves as the closest support, while $38.90–$39.10 is the area that needs to be broken to restore upward momentum. Fundamentally, concerns over the Fed's independence maintain safe-haven demand, but a stronger USD limits gains. Expectations of a Fed rate cut remain supportive of precious metals, with the focus on Friday's US PCE data. On the industrial demand side, tariff/dealing issues and mixed Chinese data are holding back...

Gold prices (XAU/USD) fell in the Asian session on Wednesday, after touching a two-week high of around $3,395. Pressure came primarily from profit-taking and a moderate strengthening of the US dollar, causing the price to correct from its peak. Despite the weakening, gold's downside is expected to be limited. Market concerns about the Fed's independence—amid US President Donald Trump's increasingly aggressive efforts to oust one of its governors—tend to maintain interest in safe-haven assets. In such situations, gold typically remains in demand as a hedge. DISCLAIMER Note: This...
According to the latest data, the spot silver price is under some pressure and is hovering in the range of USD 38.54–39.00 per ounce, continuing its upward trend from last week, when it rose more than 33% this year—reaching its highest level in almost 14 years.
