According to expert James Hyerczyk, this slight decline is merely a temporary correction, as the market awaits important economic data, including the PCE index to be released at the end of the week. He believes that silver not only benefits from the Fed's loose monetary policy but also has strong demand in the electrification and solar energy sectors.

Although the yield on 10-year US Treasury bonds has risen, curbing short-term gains, the long-term trend for silver remains positive.
