Silver Price Today Holds $80.41 as Yields Rise — Silver Price Today
Silver price today held at $80.41 at 10:25 GMT on Monday, up $0.07 or 0.08%, even as the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield moved back above 4.38% and the dollar firmed after Friday’s jobs report. Traders who had expected those moves to lean on silver instead saw the metal stay on the strong side of its 50-day moving average at $76.94.
Silver Price Today Near $80.41
$80.41 kept Spot Silver (XAGUSD) inside its range for a second straight session, a narrow result after last week’s high at $82.13 and the April 17 top at $83.06. The move leaves silver well above the 50-day moving average, a level that often serves as the first test for whether buyers are still willing to defend pullbacks.
$82.13 and $83.06 are the nearer reference points now, but the more important line is $83.61, the long-term 50% level. If silver pushes through that mark, the upside target in the facts points to $91.34. For traders, that means the market is still trading with room above it rather than trapped under a ceiling.
U.S. Yields And Dollar
4.38% on the 10-year Treasury yield and 3.92% on the 2-year yield are normally the kind of levels that can pressure silver by making cash-like returns more competitive. Friday’s nonfarm payrolls reading of 115,000, along with a 4.3% unemployment rate, helped the dollar firm, adding another layer of pressure that silver did not fully absorb.
$103 a barrel in Brent crude added a third moving piece after Trump rejected Iran’s latest peace proposal and called the response “totally unacceptable.” That oil move usually would not help silver’s tone either, yet the metal still held near $80.41. The combination leaves dip buyers with the upper hand for now, even if the climb has not yet broken into the next technical band.
$74.63 And $72.03
$76.94 is the 50-day moving average, and a drop back below it would put silver in position to challenge $74.63. Below that, the short-term retracement zone runs from $72.03 to $69.43, with the prior recovery from $70.86 to $82.13 showing how quickly silver has already reversed in recent weeks.
$91.34 sits as the higher upside objective if $83.61 gives way, while $74.63 is the first downside marker if the market loses its current footing. For traders, the practical read is simple: silver is still defending a constructive chart, but the next break will decide whether Monday’s resilience becomes a base or just a pause.
