Silver spot prices have climbed to $79.98 per ounce (approx. $2,571.40 per kilo) as of 9 AM ET, a 1.05% gain over yesterday’s price of $79.15. Silver is outperforming gold this morning, hitting near one-month highs. This surge is driven by a weaker U.S. dollar index and renewed confidence that a diplomatic breakthrough in the Middle East could stabilize energy costs, encouraging a "risk-on" sentiment for industrial precious metals.
