Causes and forecasts

Silver prices continued to rise this week amid a slight decrease in bond yields. However, a more noteworthy factor is the weakening of the USD.

According to precious metals analyst Christopher Lewis, the silver market at the beginning of the week had a slight decrease, but then quickly recovered and approached the 70 USD/ounce mark. This is a round price threshold of important psychological significance for investors, and also an area that has recorded significant support.

Mr. Christopher Lewis believes that the 70 USD/ounce mark is becoming an important price range to determine the next trend of silver. If this threshold is convincingly surpassed, the upward momentum may continue. Conversely, if it cannot break through, silver prices may be under adjustment pressure.

Experts note that the USD often has a reverse correlation with the price of silver. Therefore, the diễn biến of the greenback and bond yields are factors that need to be monitored in parallel when assessing the trend of this precious metal.

Compared to gold, silver is having some different developments. While gold once suffered pressure when interest rates fell, the need to find safe-haven assets is now showing signs of returning. Developments related to the US government's bond repurchase policy are also attracting market attention.

According to Christopher Lewis, this is one of the first times since the above information that silver prices have faced a significant technical resistance level. Although the current trend is still in the upside, the 70 USD/ounce mark may be an important test.

The 70 USD mark is likely to become important" - the expert said, and also said that he will closely monitor this price range to find confirmation signals for the next up or down trend of silver.
