Why is the Silver price moving today?
Silver prices are trading near their two-month high levels as markets await the US personal consumption expenditure data, which will help provide cues on the US Federal Reserve’s interest rate trajectory. The majority of traders expect the Fed to keep interest rates unchanged at its upcoming September meeting.
Lower interest rates increase the appeal of precious metals by reducing the cost of holding bullion. Participants eagerly await Fed chair Kevin Warsh’s speech at Jackson Hole for cues on the central bank’s monetary policy stance. Also, the recent fall in oil prices provided a cushion for the white metal, helping ease inflationary concerns.
Elsewhere, silver—seen as both a precious and industrial metal—is being supported by demand from solar panels, electric vehicles and AI infrastructure.
Outlook for Silver Investors
Analysts suggest a bullish momentum for silver prices driven by the recent softness in the dollar index, scaled-back expectations of rate hike and a fall in crude prices.
“Silver price has resumed slightly gapped up by 0.50% in today’s session at Rs 245,535, continued to trade over its all key moving averages on hourly chart i.e. 20, 50 and 100-EMAs placed at RS 243844, to Rs 243380 and Rs 241234 respectively. On the upside, crucial resistance would be at Rs 248,800 and breakout of this level will accelerate Bullish momentum in Silver price towards its next resistance at Rs 255,000. We are expecting Sideways-to Bullish trend in Silver price in today’s session,” said Aamir Makda, Commodity & Currency Analyst, Technical Research, Choice Broking.
Retail investors are advised to track not just domestic rates but also international trends before making buying decisions.
