Silver Price Forecast: XAG/USD regains ground amid a pullback in US Treasury Yields
Silver price (XAG/USD) is up 2% to near $60.40 during the European trading session on Friday, reversing its entire Thursday’s losses. The white metal strengthens as its appeal has improved due to a pullback in United States (US) Treasury Yields.
At press time, 10-year US bond yields are up 0.17% to near 2.44%. However, they corrected sharply on Thursday after failing to extend rally beyond the two-decade high at 5.36%. A pullback in US bond yields rally has also weighed on the US Dollar (USD). In early European trade, the US Dollar Index (DXY), which gauges the Greenback’s value against six major currencies, trades 0.1% lower to near 102.00. Technically, a lower US Dollar improves risk-reward conditions for the Silver price.
However, financial markets argue that it would be early calling a pause in the US Dollar and US Treasury Yields as the conflict between the US and Iran is still intact.
Dollar dip seen as temporary as geopolitical oil premium persists
Strategists at ING observe that the Dollar "lost a bit of ground yesterday as Treasuries took a breather," but they stress that they "don’t see signs of a broader USD correction brewing." They also highlight the geopolitical backdrop, noting that while US President Donald Trump has indicated the US "won’t attack Iran before the 3 November midterms," the oil market "is reluctant to price out the geopolitical premium that has kept prices above $100/bbl despite improved Gulf supply."
Going forward, the major trigger for the Silver price will be the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for September, which will be released on Wednesday.
Silver Technical Analysis
In the daily chart, XAG/USD trades at $60.40, keeping a bearish near-term bias as spot holds beneath the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $62.14. The downside skew is reinforced by the Moving Average Exponential (20, close, 0) capping the price overhead, while the Relative Strength Index (14) at 41.86 remains below the midline, hinting at persistent but not extreme selling pressure.
On the topside, initial resistance is defined by the 20-day EMA at $62.14, and a sustained break above this barrier would be needed to ease the current bearish tone and open the way to higher levels. Looking down, the two-month low at $58.50 is the key supprot level.

Update: Equities Rise Intraday as Traders Parse Consumer Sentiment Survey
01:37 PM EDT, 10/09/2026 (MT Newswires) -- (Updates with latest market prices and developments.) US benchmark equity indexes were higher intraday as investors evaluated a survey on consumer sentiment. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 0.8% at 51,628.8 after midday Friday, while the Nasdaq Composite and the S&P 500 rose 0.6% each to 27,352.4 and 7,809.5, respectively. Barring communication services, all sectors were in the green, led by real estate. US consumer sentiment fell in October as the one- and five-year inflation expectations reached their highest levels since May, preliminary results of a University of Michigan survey showed Friday. "While year-ahead expectations for personal finances and business conditions crept up slightly, buying conditions for durables plummeted amid high prices and borrowing costs," Surveys of Consumers Director Joanne Hsu said. "Frustration over cost-of-living continues to mount, as consumers across the political spectrum believe that the trajectory of the economy has weakened since the beginning of the year." Markets are currently pricing in a nearly 81% probability that the Federal Reserve will keep its benchmark rate steady later this month, with the remaining odds in favor of a second consecutive 25-basis-point hike, as the central bank looks to tame inflation, according to the CME FedWatch tool. West Texas Intermediate crude was down 0.4% at $91.17 a barrel intraday, while Brent lost 0.5% to $103.81. The 10-year US Treasury yield was up 1.5 basis points at 5.25%, while the two-year rate increased 3.9 basis points to 4.8%. In company news, SpaceX (SPCX) shares were up 0.5%. The rocket and satellite company said late Thursday it agreed to acquire a nationwide low-band spectrum portfolio from investment firm Grain Management as it seeks to establish Starlink Mobile as a major US mobile carrier. T-Mobile US (TMUS) shares sank 13% intraday Friday, the worst performer on the S&P 500, followed by AT&T (T) and Verizon Communications (VZ), which fell 10% and 9.8%, respectively.
