NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 04:29 ET — Premarket
- Vizsla Silver was down 1.9% at $5.81 in premarket trading, after a $5.92 prior close. 1
- Spot silver slid to about $75 an ounce after hitting a fresh record above $83 earlier in the session, Reuters reported. 2
- Traders are watching this week’s Federal Reserve minutes for clues on the rate outlook that has helped fuel precious-metals gains. 3
Vizsla Silver Corp shares fell 1.9% to $5.81 in U.S. premarket trading on Monday, after closing at $5.92 in the prior session, market data showed. 1
The move matters because the stock often tracks silver prices, which have turned sharply volatile after a run to record highs that pulled more money into the sector. 2
Investors are also bracing for this week’s release of minutes from the Federal Reserve’s last meeting, a potential driver of rate expectations that can swing demand for non-yielding assets such as precious metals. 3
Spot silver slipped 4.6% to $75.47 an ounce after touching an all-time high of $83.62 earlier on Monday, Reuters reported. 2
“Profit-taking and peace-talk optimism put gold and silver on the back foot,” said Tim Waterer, chief market analyst at KCM Trade. 2
The pullback followed a powerful run late last week. Silver rose 9% on Friday to a record high of $78.53 an ounce, Reuters reported. 4
Premarket trading is a thin, extended-hours session before the 9:30 a.m. ET U.S. market open, which can exaggerate moves as fewer shares change hands. 1
Vizsla Silver, a Canada-based explorer and developer, is advancing its flagship Panuco silver-gold project in Mexico’s Sinaloa state. 5
The company’s latest news release was on Dec. 18, when it said it agreed to acquire 10 mining claims around Panuco from Fresnillo-linked Minera Fresnillo for $2 million in cash and $4 million in shares. 6
Vizsla said the claims package totals 2,378 hectares and includes “strategic” ground adjacent to its project that could cover extensions of known mineralized structures. 6
Earlier in December, the company said it filed a technical report and feasibility study under Canada’s NI 43-101 mining disclosure rules, an engineering and economic assessment used to evaluate whether a mine should be built. 5
That feasibility study outlined average annual production of 17.4 million ounces of silver-equivalent over an initial 9.4-year mine life, with an after-tax net present value — a discounted estimate of future cash flows — of about $1.8 billion, the company said. 7
With year-end liquidity thin, traders will be watching whether silver stabilizes after its record swing, and whether Fed minutes on Tuesday alter the rate-cut narrative that has powered metals demand into the final week of the year. 3
