What's Behind Silver's 4% Surge?

Spot silver rose nearly 4% to near $51.85 an ounce in European trading on November 4, after Democrats won majorities in both the House and the Senate. Analysts said the result raised doubts about whether the Trump administration's current policies, especially programs supporting AI investment, will be maintained, pushing money toward safe-haven assets such as gold and silver. Commerzbank warned that US stocks, particularly the Nasdaq, could face pressure, and that the dollar could weaken further if investment slows. Attention now turns to the October nonfarm payrolls report due November 6, with CME FedWatch showing markets leaning strongly toward a 0.25 percentage point Fed rate hike in December, to about 4-4.25%. Technically, spot silver at $51.77 remains below its 20-day EMA of $54.83, with an RSI of 36.69, and the $48.62 level, an 11-month low, is seen as key support.

  • Gold Jumps Over 3% After Democrats' Sweeping Midterm Victory

    Spot gold rose 3.4% to 4,061.30 USD/ounce and spot silver gained 5.1% to 52.29 USD/ounce on November 4, as the US dollar weakened after the midterm elections, where Democrats were forecast to win control of the House of Representatives. The USD Index fell about 0.3%, US stocks rallied as political risk eased, while Treasury yields and oil prices declined. StoneX's Rhona O'Connell said that if Democrats control both chambers of Congress, gold could be supported as rates and the dollar are likely to face downward pressure, though this could bring fiscal policy standoffs and institutional conflicts. Capital.com's Daniela Hathorn said the recovery remains fragile, since geopolitical instability does not automatically translate into safe-haven demand, and gold and silver could be sold off during sharp stock declines as investors liquidate profitable or easily convertible assets. Gold is down more than 6% and silver about 26% year-to-date, after rising 66% and 135% in 2025.

  • Silver Is Down 17% in a Month. Here's My Prediction for What's Ahead for the Precious Metal.

    Silver's spot price has fallen 17% over the past month to about $54 per troy ounce, after hitting a record $121.67 on January 29, 2026. This year, inflation led many industrial manufacturers, especially solar panel makers, to cut spending and shift to less silver or copper, while the Fed held rates steady for most of the year before raising them in September for the first time in three years, strengthening the U.S. dollar. According to the Silver Institute and Metals Focus, the supply deficit could widen from 40.3 million ounces in 2025 to 46.3 million ounces in 2026, the sixth straight year of shortfall. About 74% of silver is produced as a byproduct of mining lead, zinc, copper and gold, which limits how quickly output can rise. JPMorgan sees silver at $63 and UBS at $70 by the end of 2026.

  • Silver Falls 1.16% as FXStreet Identifies $50 Technical Level

    Silver fell 1.16% on Oct. 23 to a daily low of $53.0273 per troy ounce, closing at $53.9199 according to Investing.com data. FXStreet cited $50 as a possible reference if silver moved below $53, while its technical section identified $53.50 as support and $53.05 as the year-to-date low. Analyst Christian Borjon Valencia said the Relative Strength Index showed continued pressure on silver and was nearing oversold territory; a move above $55 would strengthen the case for a bullish reversal, with $58.02 and $60 as higher references. CME Group reported active silver futures fell 9.6% from August to September, settling at $60.565 an ounce, citing the Fed's 25-basis-point rate increase, elevated energy prices, inflation concerns and a stronger dollar as headwinds, with the next Fed decision listed for Oct. 28.

  • Gold, silver and precious metals prices jump, dollar dips as Democrats take control of Congress

    Precious metals rallied early Tuesday after vote counting in the U.S. midterms pointed to Democrats winning the House, while the dollar index fell about 0.3%. Spot gold rose 2% to $4,005.40 an ounce and spot silver jumped 4% to $51.68, with platinum up 3.3% and palladium up 3.8%. StoneX's Rhona O'Connell said Democratic control of both chambers could bring fiscal brinkmanship and uncertainty, but gold should find support as rates and the dollar may come under pressure. Gold and silver have lost momentum this year, with gold down more than 7% and silver down almost 28% year to date. Capital.com's Daniela Hathorn said the recovery remains fragile, as restrictive monetary policy limits safe-haven demand and investors may sell metals to raise cash during equity selloffs.

  • Festive cheer for buyers as silver dips below Rs 2 lakh / kg on MCX

    Silver fell below 2 lakh rupees per kg on the MCX on October 23, with the December futures contract down over 1.7% to around 1,95,800 to 1,96,170 rupees per kg. The main causes were a heavy sell-off in global technology and AI stocks, which forced institutional investors to liquidate precious metals to cover losses elsewhere, along with inflation worries from high crude oil prices and a stronger US dollar weighing on industrial demand. Silver hit an all-time high of 4,20,048 rupees per kg on the MCX in January 2026. GJC Chairman Rajesh Rokde said the drop gives festive buyers substantial relief on silver ornaments, coins and utensils, and local jewellers in Nagpur report rising footfall and advance inquiries ahead of Dhanteras and Diwali.

  • Bullion extends losing streak to third day as crude tops $115 per barrel

    Gold and silver prices fell for a third straight session in the national capital on Friday as rising crude oil and a stronger US dollar weighed on sentiment.

Silver has lost Rs 30,000, or 13%, since September 30, and an HDFC Securities analyst said domestic gold hit its lowest level since early July. Globally, spot gold was flat at $4,024.37 per ounce after touching a cycle low of $3,986, while silver fell 1.41% to $53.83 per ounce. Analysts said crude oil was being pushed toward $115 per barrel, raising expectations that interest rates may stay elevated for longer.

  • Gold extends rally above $4,100 as dollar, Treasury yields fall after U.S. vote

    Gold held above $4,100 an ounce on Thursday after a Democratic sweep of the U.S. midterm elections pushed the dollar and Treasury yields lower, while Trump downplayed the prospect of renewed strikes on Iran. Spot gold rose 1.8% to $4,132.36 an ounce, silver gained 2.1% to $53.3400, and the U.S. Dollar Index fell 0.3% to 101.31. ANZ analysts said U.S. bonds benefited from expectations that the new political balance would constrain Trump's proposed tax cuts and spending plans, but warned that weaker government borrowing could erode a key support for gold. Oil stayed sharply lower after Brent fell below $100 a barrel on Wednesday. Gold is still more than 20% below its levels before the U.S.-Iran war broke out in late February, and investors are now watching Friday's U.S. nonfarm payrolls report.

  • Meta President on Data Center Politics

    In an interview with WSJ editor-in-chief Emma Tucker, Dina Powell McCormick of Meta said the industry has not done enough to explain the benefits of data center investments, and that Meta is going well beyond its original commitments. Meta has been building data centers for 20 years and operates in 23 states, with five of them hosting gigawatt-scale projects, including Texas. She said a newly elected governor who campaigned on data centers had asked to meet after the inauguration because the state did not want to lose the investment or the jobs. She added that the work has been hard, that models that work are becoming clear, and that states want those models, but local support is necessary.

  • Has Alphabet (GOOGL) Fallen Far Enough To Back Its Cash Flow Value?

    Alphabet's share price has fallen after a difficult stretch marked by heavy AI spending, negative free cash flow and concern over AI capital expenditure following its Q3 2026 update, which wiped nearly $500b off market value in one day. The article uses a discounted cash flow (DCF) model based on about $66.6b of free cash flow over the last twelve months; the model projects negative free cash flow in 2027 before a recovery later in the decade as AI infrastructure spending settles into a more cash-generative phase. On that basis, the DCF puts intrinsic value substantially above the current share price of $288.93. The stock trades at a 15.1x P/E and has returned 121.2% over the past 3 years. The piece asks whether the recent decline has fully reset expectations for Alphabet's cash generation.

  • China's gold demand shifts from jewelry to investment gold

    According to the China Gold Association, jewelry gold consumption fell 33.86% to 178.612 tonnes in the first nine months of 2026, while bar and coin demand rose 26.26% to 444.576 tonnes. Total gold consumption for the period reached 684.623 tonnes, up 0.28% year on year, reflecting a shift in Chinese consumers' view of gold as an investment and store of value. Domestic gold output fell 18.71% to 220.935 tonnes, partly due to maintenance pauses at some key projects, while overseas mining by major gold groups rose 15.77% to 71.126 tonnes. Gold held by China's gold ETFs increased by 56.114 tonnes over the nine months, down 28.98% from a year earlier, bringing total holdings to 303.965 tonnes at the end of September 2026.
