Why is the Silver price moving today?
Silver prices rose above $81 per ounce as weaker US Treasury yields and a softer dollar improved investor sentiment. Oil prices also retreated after several tankers passed safely through the Strait of Hormuz, easing immediate supply disruption fears.
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirmed that Iran continues to ship crude through the route while President Donald Trump seeks international cooperation to protect commercial traffic.
Investors are widely expecting the US Federal Reserve to keep interest rates unchanged this week amid geopolitical uncertainties linked to the Iran war.
Outlook for Silver Investors
Fundamentally, silver remains supported by strong electronics demand and a projected 67 million-ounce global supply deficit expected in 2026.
“Silver’s gains are further underpinned by a projected 67 million-ounce supply deficit for 2026 and strong industrial demand from the electronics sector. MCX Silver May futures are likely to stay positive, and Rs 2.58 lakh per kilogram is the resistance for the intraday today,” said Jigar Trivedi, Senior Research Analyst at Indusind Securities.
