Silver rose to around $43.5 per ounce on Monday, reaching a fresh 14-year high as expectations of further US Federal Reserve rate cuts bolstered demand for precious metals. Last week, the Fed delivered a widely anticipated 25 basis point cut, the first since December, while signaling the possibility of two more reductions this year. Investors are now looking ahead to fresh Fed commentary and a key US inflation report this week for further guidance on the rates outlook. Strong fundamentals also supported silver, with tight supply helping maintain upward momentum. On the demand side, robust consumption from the solar, electric vehicle, and electronics sectors provided additional support.
