Silver Price Analysis: XAG/USD stays on the way to $28.00

  • Silver extends rebound from 100-SMA, monthly support line.
  • Multiple levels between $27.90 and $28.00 test bulls amid upbeat MACD.
  • Early month tops add to the downside filters.

Silver prices hold onto Friday’s recovery moves, followed by Monday’s run-up, during early Tuesday morning in Asia. In doing so, the white metal keeps its bounce off 100-SMA and an ascending support line from late April as bulls catch a breather around $27.75.

Sustained run-up above the key support indicators, 100-SMA and stated trend line, keep silver buyers hopeful as MACD teases the bulls.

It should, however, be noted that a two-week-old horizontal area around $27.90–$28.00 guards the commodity’s immediate upside moves ahead of the monthly top surrounding $28.75.

Meanwhile, pullback moves need to keep the metal lower below the 100-SMA level of $27.34 to aim for the early May highs near $27.00 and the mid-month bottoms close to $26.70.

Although the white metal is likely to rebound from $26.70, failures to do so will make it vulnerable to plunge towards the monthly low near $25.80.

USD/JPY eyes August swing low, near 155.20 ahead of US NFP

USD/JPY retests the August monthly swing low during the Asian session on Friday as a more hawkish repricing of BoJ rate-hike bets and a suspected intervention continue to underpin the Japanese Yen. Meanwhile, the US Dollar is seen consolidating the previous day's heavy losses amid soft US bond yields, further weighing on the currency pair as traders keenly await the US NFP report.

AUD/USD consolidates above 0.7200; US NFP awaited

AUD/USD holds steady above 0.7200, near its highest level since mid-May, as bulls await the US NFP report for more cues on the Fed's policy path before placing fresh bets. Meanwhile, the recent decline in US bond yields keeps the US Dollar depressed near its lowest level in over a week and acts as a tailwind for the Aussie amid the RBA's hawkish tilt.

Gold tumbles as blockbuster US NFP lift US Dollar, Treasury yields

Gold (XAU/USD) falls sharply on Friday, snapping a two-day recovery after the US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) report surprised strongly to the upside. The metal briefly climbed above $4,500 on Thursday, gaining nearly 2%, but has since erased a large part of that advance.

Crypto’s $638 million buyback boom may not be as bullish as it looks
Decentralized Finance (DeFi) protocols reportedly spent $638 million to buy back their native tokens in August, up 17% from a year earlier. On the surface, the buyback trend suggests the cryptocurrency industry is maturing fast, adopting one of Wall Street’s oldest tools to bolster valuations and distribute revenue. The headline becomes less impressive once the number is opened up.
Why hawkish Bank of Japan expectations aren't enough to sustain the Japanese Yen rally

The Japanese Yen (JPY) experienced a sudden burst higher after falling back below the 160.00 psychological mark against the US Dollar (USD) earlier this week amid a more hawkish repricing of Bank of Japan (BoJ) rate hike expectations.

Diesel’s record $100 warning: The oil shock hiding in plain sight

The Oil market may look calmer than it did a few months ago, but diesel is sending a very different message. The US diesel crack spread, the premium of ultra-low sulphur diesel futures over WTI, recently surged above $100 per barrel for the first time, reaching an intraday record of just over $102.00.
