Silver (XAG/USD) takes the bids to renew daily high around $23.25 during Thursday’s Asian session.

In doing so, the bright metal pierces the previous support line from late 2021 while extending Wednesday’s rebound from 78.6% Fibonacci retracement of (Fibo.) of an upside from December 2021 to March 2022.

Given the RSI rebound from the nearly oversold territory also favoring the buyers, XAG/USD is up for challenging the 200-DMA level surrounding $23.75. However, 61.8% Fibo. near $23.55, will test the immediate upside momentum.

Should the bullion prices rally beyond $23.75, March’s low around $24.00 will act as the last defense of bears.

On the flip side, pullback moves remain elusive until staying beyond the aforementioned support-turned-resistance line, at $23.05 by the press time.

Following that, the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level near $22.55 and the monthly low near $22.10 could lure the silver bears.

EUR/USD stays well offered below 1.1800

The selling pressure on EUR/USD is picking up pace, with the pair slipping decisively below the key 1.1800 level and sliding to fresh two week lows as Wednesday’s session draws to a close. The move lower comes as the US Dollar finds renewed strength after the latest round of US data and the release of the FOMC Minutes. Next of note on the docket will be the US weekly Initial Jobless Claims.

GBP/USD reaches multi-day lows near 1.3500

GBP/USD reverses its initial upside momentum and is now adding to previous declines, approaching the 1.3500 region on Wednesday. Cable’s downtick comes on the back of decent gains in the Greenback and easing UK inflation figures, which seem to have reinforced the case for a BoE rate cut in March.

Gold is back on the front foot on Wednesday, shaking off part of the early week softness and challenging two-day highs near the $5,000 mark per troy ounce. The move comes ahead of the FOMC Minutes and is unfolding despite an intense rebound in the US Dollar.

Mixed UK inflation data no gamechanger for the Bank of England

Food inflation plunged in January, but service sector price pressure is proving stickier. We continue to expect Bank of England rate cuts in March and June. The latest UK inflation read is a mixed bag for the Bank of England, but we doubt it drastically changes the odds of a March rate cut.
