Silver price jumps toward $78 as Venezuela shock and Fed cut bets lift demand

Silver prices climbed on Tuesday, with spot silver — for immediate delivery — up 1.9% at $77.97 an ounce by 0946 GMT as safe-haven demand rose after the U.S. capture of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and markets leaned further into U.S. rate-cut bets. “Safe-haven demand and rising bets on Federal Reserve rate cuts are underpinning the market,” said Ricardo Evangelista, an analyst at ActivTrades. Gold edged up 0.1% to $4,452.60 an ounce, while platinum rose 1.4% and palladium gained 0.2%. Reuters
