Sibanye Stillwater falls in U.S. premarket as platinum, palladium slide

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 04:37 ET — Premarket Sibanye Stillwater shares fell 4.5% to $15.00 in premarket trading on Monday, after the South African miner closed last week near recent highs. Public+1 The move matters because Sibanye’s earnings are closely linked to platinum-group metals, or PGMs — a basket that includes platinum and palladium, widely used in automotive exhaust catalysts — making the stock sensitive to sudden swings in metal prices. Sibanye-Stillwater+2Sibanye-Stillwater+2 That sensitivity is in focus at year-end as precious metals prices whip around on shifting bets about U.S. interest rates and geopolitics, both key drivers of safe-haven

Vizsla Silver dips in premarket as silver pulls back from its $80 spike

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 04:29 ET — Premarket 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.

PSLV slides in premarket as silver retreats from $80-plus record

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 04:11 ET — Premarket Sprott Physical Silver Trust fell 4.8% in premarket trading on Monday to $24.80, trimming part of Friday’s surge as silver prices pulled back from fresh highs. StockAnalysis+1 The trust is a go-to vehicle for investors seeking liquid exposure to silver at a moment when the metal’s rally has turned volatile, whipped by shifting views on U.S. rates and haven demand.

Gold slips from record highs as silver cools after $80 surge; India prices stay near Rs 140,000

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 03:21 ET Gold eased from near record highs on Monday and silver retreated after briefly topping $80 an ounce, as investors booked profits after a year-end surge in precious metals. Spot gold was down 1.7% at $4,455.34 per ounce by 0707 GMT, Reuters said.

Silver near $80 puts Sprott’s PSLV in focus ahead of Monday’s U.S. session

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 01:03 ET — Market closed. Sprott Physical Silver Trust closed Friday at $26.04, up 8.68%, as silver pushed deeper into record territory. The Wall Street Journal+1 The move matters because PSLV is designed to give investors exchange-traded exposure to physical silver, so big swings in the metal tend to show up quickly in the trust’s units. Sprott says the trust holds fully allocated London Good Delivery silver bars. Sprott Spot silver was up 0.7% at $79.68 an ounce early Monday after retreating from an all-time high of $83.62 hit earlier in the session, Reuters reported.

Silver’s India rally drives buyers to coins as jewellery demand cools

NEW YORK, December 28, 2025, 22:54 ET Key points: Silver prices in India have pushed to fresh records, lifting futures by more than 32,000 rupees per kilogram in four trading sessions and driving a shift from jewellery to investment-grade coins and bars in some retail markets. AajTak+1 The move matters now because it is hitting consumer demand just as year-end buying typically picks up, while also drawing more small investors into physical silver at elevated prices. AajTak+1 It also underlines how silver is trading on both “safe-haven” flows — demand for assets viewed as stores of value — and industrial

Silver breaks $80, then whipsaws as record gold prices cool India buying

NEW YORK, December 28, 2025, 21:05 ET Silver climbed above $80 an ounce for the first time on Monday before sliding sharply lower, as investors piled into precious metals on bets the U.S. Federal Reserve will cut interest rates in 2026. Reuters The sudden swings matter now because the global rally is feeding into record prices in key physical markets, including India, where higher costs are already curbing jewellery demand. Reuters Analysts say the late-year surge has been amplified by supply concerns and crowded positioning, increasing the risk that any pullback could be swift even if the broader backdrop stays

NEW YORK, December 28, 2025, 20:08 ET Spot silver crossed $80 an ounce for the first time late on Sunday, setting a fresh record as a year-end rally in precious metals accelerated.

Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) Outlook: All Share Near Record Highs as Precious Metals Surge Sets Up Monday Reopen

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 9:31 a.m. ET — Market closed The Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) heads into the final trading stretch of 2025 with a familiar year-end cocktail: holiday-thinned liquidity, a powerful precious-metals rally, and a softer U.S. dollar backdrop that tends to favor emerging-market assets and commodity-heavy equity markets like South Africa’s. With both U.S. markets and the JSE shut on Sunday, investors are using the quiet window to position for Monday’s reopen—especially after gold, platinum, and silver pushed deeper into record territory late last week, a move with outsized implications for JSE heavyweight miners and the rand-linked
