Silver - Summary

Silver prices fell to around $54 an ounce on Friday, hitting their lowest levels since November 2025 as a deepening selloff in technology and artificial intelligence stocks prompted traders to liquidate precious metals to cover losses in other assets. The broader equity downturn intensified this week after Meta Platforms’ plans to increase capital expenditure reignited concerns that technology companies may take on additional debt to fund the AI buildout. Silver also remained under pressure from rising oil prices, which heightened inflation concerns and strengthened expectations that interest rates could stay elevated for longer. However, growing doubts about the sustainability of AI investments, a key driver of US economic growth, prompted markets to scale back expectations for further Federal Reserve rate hikes, potentially providing some support for precious metals.

Silver
Silver is a widely traded precious metal with both industrial and investment applications. It is used extensively in electronics, solar panels, and medical technologies, while also serving as a store of value and portfolio diversification tool. As a result, silver prices are influenced by both industrial demand and investor sentiment. Silver futures and options are traded on major exchanges such as the COMEX, where they are used by mining companies, manufacturers, and investors to manage price risk. Standard futures contracts typically represent 5,000 troy ounces. On the supply side, Mexico, Peru, and China are the largest producers globally, followed by Australia, Chile, Bolivia, the United States, Poland, and Russia.

Silver Languishes to Near One-Year Low

Silver Slides to Near Three-Month Low
Silver prices fell below $56 an ounce on Thursday, approaching a three-month low as rising oil prices fueled inflation concerns ahead of next week’s Federal Reserve policy decision. Brent crude climbed to its highest level since May following renewed Houthi attacks in Saudi Arabia, raising fears of a broader regional escalation and further disruptions to oil supplies. Stronger-than-expected US consumer and producer inflation data, alongside falling weekly jobless claims, pointed to persistent price pressures and a resilient labor market, reinforcing expectations of tighter monetary policy. While the Fed is widely expected to hold rates at its October 27–28 meeting, Goldman Sachs anticipates another 25-basis-point hike in December, with markets pricing in an over 85% probability of an increase, according to CME’s FedWatch Tool. Investors now await next week’s PCE price index, the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge, for further clues on the interest rate outlook.
