SLV stock jumps as silver price nears $80 after softer U.S. jobs data

NEW YORK, Jan 9, 2026, 13:46 EST — Regular session iShares Silver Trust (SLV) jumped about 3.4% on Friday, mirroring a sharp rebound in silver after a softer-than-expected U.S. jobs report fed expectations of lower interest rates later this year. SLV was last at $72.11 and traded between $70.03 and $72.96. The move matters because SLV is one of the quickest “stock-like” ways for U.S. investors to take a view on the silver price without trading futures. When rate bets shift fast, the ETF tends to move with them. The trust is backed by physical silver and aims to track

Silver price slumps hit SLV ETF and silver miner stocks as traders brace for US jobs data

New York, January 7, 2026, 17:33 EST — After-hours The iShares Silver Trust (SLV), a closely watched proxy for the silver price, fell about 3.7% in after-hours trading on Wednesday as silver pulled back, dragging U.S.-listed silver miners lower. The setback matters because silver’s rally has been a crowded trade and the instruments tied closest to spot prices tend to swing hardest when positioning shifts. When the metal turns, miners often move more than the underlying commodity, for better or worse. Traders are also staring at the U.S. data calendar again. Silver is a non-yielding asset — it does not

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 slide matters because Chennai is a key jewellery market in India, where families routinely track daily rates for purchases and savings. 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
