Causes and predictions
According to precious metals analyst James Hyerczyk at FX Empire, silver continues to increase in price thanks to three main factors: Strong demand accompanied by the upward trend of gold, a prolonged shortage of material things, and the fact that silver is on the list of essential minerals of the US. "These factors help maintain a group of potential buyers, ready to participate when prices temporarily stagnate," he said.
The expert said that if the market maintains the threshold of 58 USD/ounce, the possibility of breaking the record of 58.85 USD/ounce will increase.
Meanwhile, James Hyerczyk said that investors are also looking forward to the US Federal Reserve (Fed) meeting on December 9-10.
"Currently, the market is pricing in an 87% chance of a 0.25 percentage point interest rate cut, up sharply from 35% two weeks ago. Low interest rates typically make precious metals more attractive, as other profitable assets are less attractive," he said.
James Hyerczyk added that US economic data this week, including the ADP jobs report, unemployment claims, and the September PCE report (delayed), are still very important. The latest ISM production report shows continued decline, while rumors about the possibility of Kevin Hassett becoming Fed chairman have also attracted attention.
