Silver rate today: Given the fact that industrial commodities are struggling, and tariff threats loom large, silver may struggle to extend its rally much further on a sustained basis
Silver has come under renewed downside pressure as the US Federal Reserve delivered a hawkish pause in its monetary policy meeting that concluded on June 12
Silver strategy: Silver is expected to range trade ahead of the US CPI data (May) to be released today. A decisive breach of support at $28.84 may lead to additional sharp decline in the near-term
Silver at $30.12 was down over 2 per cent at the time of MCX closing as the corresponding MCX July contract at Rs 90305 was down 2.91 per cent on the day
On the downside, the MCX Crude Oil futures have near support at Rs 7,205 and Rs 7,027 levels. Meanwhile, if Natural Gas futures sustain above Rs 492, they can rally past the Rs 535-level.
On the downside, near support for Gold futures seen at Rs 49,860, below which re-test of Rs 48,900-level seems likely; Silver futures face an uphill task of conquering multiple hurdles on the upside.
The bias for MCX Crude Oil September futures is likely to favour the bears as long as the commodity trades below Rs 7,170; For MCX Natural Gas futures the key support range of Rs 630 - Rs 620.
