Why is the Silver price moving today?
Silver traded near $79 per troy ounce, holding losses from the previous session as investors awaited the latest US Federal Reserve policy decision while assessing inflation risks from the Iran conflict.
The Fed is widely expected to keep interest rates unchanged, with traders focused on guidance from Chair Jerome Powell on how oil market volatility could influence future policy. Rising oil prices have heightened inflation concerns, with markets largely ruling out a near-term Fed rate cut and pricing in only a single reduction this year.
Outlook for Silver Investors
Additionally, tensions around the Strait of Hormuz persist, although Iran has allowed selective safe passage for certain vessels, preventing sharper disruptions in global supply flows. “MCX Silver May futures may drop to Rs 2.50 lakh per kilogram as sentiment in the world market is down,” said Jigar Trivedi, Senior Research Analyst at IndusInd Securities.
