Silver prices rose on Monday, as the US dollar fell against most major currencies, and the US Treasury bond yields fell.

The US Treasury yield for 2023 fell below 2% today for the first time since last February, and the the 10-year bond hit a 4-month low.

 

The dollar index fell against a basket of major currencies by 0.4% to 91.8 points as of 19:26 GMT, after hitting a high of 92.3 points and a low of 91.9 points.

 

Silver spot futures rose 0.2% to $26.05 an ounce as of 19:26 GMT, after hitting a day high of $26.1 and a low of $25.580.
