Silver price today: SLV slides as year-end profit-taking hits the metal

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 13:35 ET — Regular session Shares of iShares Silver Trust (SLV), a popular proxy for the metal, fell about 6% on Wednesday, tracking a sharp drop in silver prices on the final trading day of 2025. The move matters because silver-linked funds and miners are closing out a year of outsized gains with a burst of volatility, leaving investors sensitive to any shift in positioning.

Chennai gold price today: 22-carat drops Rs 3,360 per sovereign as silver slides

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 20:52 ET Gold prices in Chennai logged a sharp one-day fall on Tuesday, with 22-carat jewellery gold dropping 3,360 rupees per sovereign to 100,800 rupees, Dinamalar reported.

The local reports also said retail prices had been scaling new highs through 2025, raising the stakes for sudden pullbacks. The Chennai move comes as precious metals have swung sharply into year-end, with traders digesting record highs, profit-taking and fresh geopolitical headlines. Dinamalar said the fall
