Hecla Mining stock jumps 12% as silver tops $80 and Investor Day nears

New York, January 6, 2026, 13:15 EST — Regular session Hecla Mining (HL.N) shares jumped 11.6% to $22.02 in afternoon trading, after touching an intraday high of $22.19. The stock closed at $19.73 in the prior session and has traded between $19.81 and $22.19 so far on Tuesday. The move comes as precious metals rallied, lifting sentiment across silver-linked miners. Spot silver rose 5.3% to $80.57 an ounce, supported by safe-haven demand — assets investors buy for protection during turmoil — and expectations for U.S. interest-rate cuts ahead of Friday’s U.S. payrolls report. “Precious metals traders see more risk on

Silver price stock SLV climbs nearly 6% as Venezuela strikes lift safe-haven demand

New York, Jan 5, 2026, 13:38 EST — Regular session Shares of iShares Silver Trust (SLV) rose 5.7% to $69.49 in Monday afternoon trading. Spot silver jumped 6% to $76.99 an ounce after U.S. strikes in Venezuela revived demand for safe-haven assets, while markets also weighed expectations for U.S. rate cuts later this year. “The situation around Venezuela has clearly reactivated safe-haven demand,” said Alexander Zumpfe, a precious metals trader at Heraeus Metals Germany. Reuters The move matters because silver has become a quick-read barometer for macro risk at the start of 2026. When investors turn cautious, they often buy

Silver price jumps on Maduro capture as SLV comes into focus ahead of U.S. jobs report

NEW YORK, January 5, 2026, 03:46 ET — Market closed Silver prices jumped nearly 4% on Monday as investors reached for safe-haven assets—those bought when uncertainty spikes—after the United States captured Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. Spot silver rose 3.9% to $75.50 per ounce by 0742 GMT, after hitting a record $83.62 on Dec. 29 and ending 2025 up 147%. “The kidnapping of a foreign head of state naturally leads to high degrees of instability,” said Tim Waterer, KCM Trade’s chief market analyst. Reuters The move matters for U.S. stock-market traders because the iShares Silver Trust (SLV) holds physical bullion and

PSLV stock slides 6% as silver selloff bites — what to watch before Friday’s reopen

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 19:58 ET — Market closed. Sprott Physical Silver Trust (PSLV) last closed down 6.2% at $23.65 on Wednesday, a steep drop that left the silver-linked fund under pressure going into the New Year. U.S. stock markets were closed on Thursday for the holiday and are due to reopen on Friday. StockAnalysis PSLV is a closed-end trust designed to give investors exposure to physical silver bullion without storing the metal themselves.

Basic materials stocks today: XLB ends 2025 lower as silver slumps, China PMI surprise in focus

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 13:54 ET — Market closed U.S. basic materials stocks ended 2025 on a softer note, with sector ETFs slipping on Wednesday as investors took profits in metals and kept risk light into the New Year holiday. U.S. equity markets are closed on Thursday for New Year’s Day. New York Stock Exchange Why it matters now: materials shares tend to track swings in commodity prices and expectations for global growth, leaving them sensitive to fresh signals from China and the U.S. economy at the start of 2026. The sector is also coming off a year in

Silver price today: SLV slides as CME margin hike and China export rules shake silver stocks

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 12:49 ET — Market closed Spot silver fell sharply on Thursday, with prices at $72.29 an ounce as of 12:41 p.m. ET, down 6.02% on the day, according to JM Bullion data. U.S. stock markets were shut for the New Year’s Day holiday. JM Bullion The move matters because silver’s late-December surge pulled in leveraged money, leaving prices vulnerable to forced selling when exchanges lift collateral requirements. China’s tighter export controls have also put the supply side back in focus just as 2026 trading gets underway. CME Group Silver straddles two worlds: investors trade it

Silver price today: SLV tumbles as CME margin hike spurs year-end shakeout

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 5:30 PM ET — After-hours Spot silver fell sharply on Wednesday and the main silver-linked U.S. ETF slid, as traders booked profits into year-end and braced for higher collateral requirements in futures markets. Investing The timing matters. Silver has been one of 2025’s standout trades, and leverage has piled into the rally as liquidity thins around holidays and portfolio managers close their books. That can turn routine selling into outsized moves. Reuters The latest drop also tests how much of the year’s run-up was driven by fundamentals versus momentum. Silver’s blend of safe-haven and industrial

Endeavour Silver stock falls in New York trade as silver rout hits miners ahead of China export curbs

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:17 ET — Regular session Endeavour Silver Corp (NYSE: EXK) shares fell 2.7% to $9.54 in early afternoon New York trading on Wednesday. The stock traded between $9.42 and $9.89, with about 9.3 million shares changing hands. The move highlights how quickly sentiment can shift for silver-linked stocks into year-end, after a blockbuster run in the metal. For miners, day-to-day swings in bullion can feed straight through to revenue expectations and risk appetite. A fresh jump in trading costs helped set the tone. CME Group raised margin requirements on gold and silver futures for the

Pan American Silver stock today: PAAS climbs as silver rebounds after margin shakeout

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:49 ET — Regular session Pan American Silver Corp (PAAS) shares rose 2.1% to $53.36 by 12:49 p.m. ET on Tuesday, tracking a rebound across silver-linked miners. The stock traded between $52.44 and $54.32, with about 2.6 million shares changing hands. The move matters because silver has been whipsawed into the final days of the year, and miners often magnify those swings. For producers, revenue moves with the metal while many operating costs remain relatively fixed in the short run. That operating leverage can boost cash flow quickly when silver rises, but it can also

Silver tumbles from $80 record as SLV, PSLV traders brace for more swings

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 10:08 ET Silver fell sharply on Monday after touching a record above $80 an ounce, a reversal that rippled through popular silver-backed products such as BlackRock’s iShares Silver Trust and Sprott’s Physical Silver Trust. Reuters+2BlackRock+2 The pullback matters because silver’s surge has turned the metal into one of 2025’s standout trades, pulling in investors who want liquid exposure through exchange-traded products instead of dealing with coins, bars or futures contracts. Reuters+1 Now, year-end positioning is colliding with shifting safe-haven demand and tougher collateral rules in the futures market, making the rally more vulnerable to abrupt

Skeena Resources slips before the bell as gold, silver retreat from record highs

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 04:51 ET — Premarket Shares of Skeena Resources (SKE) slipped 1.8% to $24.97 in premarket trading on Monday, after the Canadian gold-silver developer finished Friday’s session up 3.8% at $25.42. StockAnalysis The early dip tracks a broader pullback in precious metals after a sharp year-end run that has lifted mining shares and related equities. Reuters That matters for Skeena because the company is still in the development stage, leaving its valuation closely tied to investor sentiment on gold and silver prices rather than operating cash flow.
