Why is silver down?
According to the Augmont Bullion report, published on January 30, silver prices can consolidate in the range of $108 to $120 before resuming its uptrend towards $125–$130 (Rs 4,30,000–Rs 4,50,000). Key support lies at $108 (Rs 3,60,000), below which prices may retrace to $103–$98.
"Despite the fall, silver continued to outperform, with prices set to rise over 50% in January, marking the best monthly performance on record and extending its rally to nine consecutive months," the report stated.
The broader precious metals rally has been driven by persistent geopolitical and macroeconomic risks, coupled with a sharp depreciation in the US dollar following policy uncertainty in Washington and President Donald Trump’s apparent comfort with a weaker currency.
