Daily Silver News: October 24 – Silver Extends Yesterday’s Decline
Silver price is coming back to $23 level as U.S. dollar weakens.
The silver futures contract lost 1.25% on Monday, October 23 as it retraced more than a half of its Friday’s rally of 2.1%. On Friday it broke above a short-term consolidation along the $23 price level and yesterday it came back to that level again. On October 4 silver price reached new medium-term low of $20.85 and it was the lowest since early March, and last Friday it traded as high as $23.9.
Today silver is retracing its Friday’s advance as we can see on the daily chart (the chart includes today’s intraday data):
The silver price is 1.5% lower as it is trading below the $23.00 level. What about the other precious metals? Gold is 0.9% lower platinum is 1.5% lower and palladium is 0.9% lower. So the main precious metals’ prices are lower this morning.
Today we will get the important U.S. Flash Manufacturing PMI and Flash Services PMI releases at 9:45 a.m.
