Silver prices climb as geopolitical risks outweigh inflation pressures, driving investors toward safe-haven assets.
Silver (XAG/USD) gained 0.94% to trade near $59.35 on Wednesday, supported by persistent safe-haven demand amid geopolitical tensions. The rise offsets concerns over inflation, which typically weighs on precious metals.
Prior sessions saw silver struggle under inflationary pressures, but renewed geopolitical risks have shifted investor focus. Comparable periods of heightened uncertainty have historically boosted demand for non-yielding assets like silver.
