Silver Price Prediction – Prices Fall as Powell Takes Hawkish Tone
Silver prices continued to break down. The dollar whipsawed following weaker than expected Chicago PMI data and strong inflation rhetoric from Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Powell, in a statement, said the Fed would accelerate its bond purchase program, which could set the Fed up for a rate hike as early as May. Yields were mixed, which flattened the curve. Home prices rose nearly 20% year over year stoking inflation fears.
