Silver Continues to Pressure Upside

During the trading on Friday, we saw the silver market initially dip, only to turn around and show signs of strength yet again. Because of this, I think the market is likely to continue to be bullish.

In general, this is a market that’s been in an uptrend for quite some time and if we are in fact going to continue to see inflationary issues, things like silver, commodities and stuff could get a little bit of a bid. We’ll just have to wait and see.

    Investors rushing to safe-haven, gold

    “The inflation data is helping to give the market confidence that the easing cycle will continue, given concerns around inflation and growth,” said Standard Chartered analyst Suki Cooper.

    Gold prices up, jobs lower than expected

    Gold prices edged up on Friday, poised for a weekly gain on safe-haven inflows and a U.S. jobs report revealing lower than expected job growth in February, suggesting the Federal Reserve is on track to cut interest rates this year.

    Spot gold added 0.3% to $2,918.11 an ounce as of 09:24 (1424 GMT). Bullion has gained over 2% so far this week, as U.S. President Donald Trump’s ever-shifting tariff policies fanned uncertainty.

    “Weaker than expected number is giving gold a slight boost… also a weaker dollar for the week right now is helping,” said Bob Haberkorn, senior market strategist at RJO Futures.

    Spot silver fell 1% to $32.28 an ounce and platinum shed 0.1% to $965.58, while palladium edged 0.5% up to $946.

    Gold up .5%, Silver up .7%

    Gold prices rose on Thursday, supported by a pullback in the dollar and the prospect of U.S. interest rate cuts later in the year, while investors awaited more details on U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade policy.

    Spot gold was up 0.5% to $3,328.23 per ounce by 0916 GMT. U.S. gold futures gained 0.5% to $3,336.90.

    “The passing of the One Big Beautiful Bill, unsettling trade (policies) and rate-cut expectations should be ‘dollar negative’ kind of events… gold should be favoured in that environment,” said WisdomTree commodities strategist Nitesh Shah

    Spot silver rose 0.7% to $36.59 per ounce, platinum gained 0.9% to $1,359.65, and palladium climbed 1.2% to $1,117.93.

    Gold prices are “not even that far away from all-time highs, so the upward momentum is there, we just need some kind of trigger to get it going,” Blue Line Futures chief market strategist Phillip Streible said.

    Gold sees longest rally since 2020

    “During the last three days, gold is up over 8% and on pace for its largest three-day move since March 2020,” Bespoke Investment Group said in a note Friday morning. “Before that, you would have to go back to the financial crisis to find the last time it rallied as much in three days.”

    “Gold may be catching a bid, but the dollar has floundered,” said Bespoke. “If you were looking for bonds to provide some ballast in your portfolio this week, you didn’t get it with Treasuries.”

    Zambia allows geologists to explore copper deposits

    India has dispatched a team of geologists to Zambia to explore copper and cobalt deposits, two Indian government sources said, as New Delhi steps up efforts to secure critical mineral supplies essential to its energy transition.

    The Zambian government this year agreed to allocate 9,000 square km (3,475 square miles) to India for the exploration of cobalt – a key component in batteries for electric vehicles and mobile phones – as well as for scouting copper, which is widely used in power generation, electronics, and construction.

    The exploration project will last for three years and most of the analysis will be done in laboratories in India, one of the sources said.
