Silver Price Forecast: XAG/USD Faces Pressure Near $84.50
Silver (XAG/USD) dropped to around $83.60 in early European trading on Friday, pressured by a strong US Dollar (USD). Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East continue to provide support for silver as a safe-haven asset, but USD strength keeps selling interest present.
Key Drivers
Middle East Tensions: Iranβs Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has vowed to keep the Strait of Hormuz closed, heightening safe-haven demand.
US Dollar Strength: Persistent inflationary pressures and delayed Fed rate cuts (pushed from July to September) are supporting the USD, weighing on silver.
Energy & Inflation Impact: Oil supply disruptions from the region increase inflation risks, reinforcing the USD and limiting silver upside.
