Why is the Silver price moving today?
Silver prices are trending sideways in early trade over geopolitical tensions pertaining to the US and Iran as both the countries are scheduled to hold the latest round of talk in Geneva later in the market. However the prices of the white metal are hovering near their weekly record highs fuelled by a soft dollar and economic uncertainties.
Tariff tensions continue to boost the appeal of the white metal, as US President Donald Trump may raise tariffs for some countries to 15% from the current 10%, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said.
Additionally, the US build up of troops in the Middle East continues to lend support for silver.
Outlook for Silver Investors
Analysts expect silver prices to remain range-bound over the long run. Silver is expected to gain in the near term due to high investment demand. Additionally, markets will continue to monitor the latest round of talks between the US and Iran scheduled in Geneva for later in the day for further cues on the prices of the white metal.
Experts have said silver, being the more volatile metal, is likely to see more price swings amid increased economic volatility and supply constraints.
Retail investors are advised to track not just domestic rates but also international trends before making buying decisions.
