Silver Price News: Options market turns most bearish on XAG/USD in 15 weeks
|Although prices of silver (XAG/USD) rebound in the last two days, the options market is up for posting the biggest weekly fall since early December 2021. Not only that, but the one-month risk reversal (RR) figure also snaps the five-week uptrend by the press time of Thursday’s early European morning.
That said, the gauge of calls to puts prints -0.925 figure for the week while flashing -0.325 daily RR, down for the second consecutive day, at the latest.
It’s worth noting that the XAG/USD prices also snap a six-week winning streak while bracing for the first negative weekly closing, up 0.44% intraday around $25.20 by the press time.
Given the downbeat option market signals, as well as the Fed’s rate-hike and indecision over the Ukraine-Russia peace plan, silver prices are likely to extend the weekly loss moving forward.
