Silver price today: spot rebounds nearly 12% after rout, lifting SLV and miners

Spot silver surged 11.7% to $88.74 an ounce by 11:40 a.m. ET Tuesday, breaking a two-day slide and sparking a broad rally in precious metals. Gold climbed 6.9% to $4,985.44, platinum rose 6%, and palladium gained 4.8%. The rebound came after silver’s historic 27% one-day crash on Friday, followed by a further 6% fall Monday, triggered by the CME raising margin requirements—the cash needed to maintain futures positions—and market jitters over Donald Trump’s nomination of Warsh to succeed Jerome Powell at the Fed in May. Peter Grant from Zaner Metals described the recent selloff as “corrective within the long-term uptrend.” Jeffrey Christian of CPM Group remains bullish, citing ongoing investor focus on economic and political risks.

The silver price slid again on Monday, with spot silver down 3.3% at $81.75 an ounce by 1148 GMT after earlier falling as much as 15%, leaving it about 32% below last week’s record. Spot gold was down 3% at $4,718.35, and CME Group said it would raise margin requirements — the cash traders must post to hold futures contracts — after the market closes on Monday. John Meyer of SP Angel said gold and silver were on a “rollercoaster ride”, while Michael Hsueh at Deutsche Bank said “the conditions do not appear primed for a sustained reversal”.
