Silver futures climb as rate-cut bets rise after weak jobs data
Silver September futures opened at $63.80 per ounce and were at $64.03 by 8:34 a.m. ET, with traders looking ahead to two inflation reports this week for the Fed outlook.
Silver prices continued to rise early Monday, Aug. 10, 2026, after a weak jobs report boosted expectations that the Federal Reserve may be less likely to raise rates next month, according to Yahoo Finance.
September silver futures opened at $63.80 per ounce, up 0.5% from Friday's close, and were trading at $64.03 as of 8:34 a.m. ET.
The article says the rally reflects investors shifting focus to whether employment data or upcoming inflation releases will be the key driver for the Fed committee's decision-making in September.
It also notes that two key inflation reports scheduled for later this week could provide a clearer read on the policy path.
