- Silver clears $34.23 resistance, eyes last year's high at $34.86 and potentially $35.00 for first time since 2012.
- US auto tariffs trigger global uncertainty, fueling strong demand for safe-haven metals like Silver.
- Key support now at $34.00; breakdown may expose $33.51 and psychological $33.00 level.
Silver price rallies sharply on Thursday, clears the $34.00 mark as uncertainty about US trade policies, regarding 25% tariffs in all cars, increased appetite for the precious metal. As of writing, the XAG/USD trades at #34.38, up over 2.20%
XAG/USD Price Forecast: Technical outlook
On Wednesday I wrote "After registering a solid rally on Tuesday, Silver failed to break the $34.00 mark, which opened the door for sellers." Finally, buyers stepped in and pushed Silver's price higher, clearing the previous year-to-date (YTD) high of $34.23, opening the door to test last year's high at $34.86. On further strength, the grey metal could reach $35.00, a level last seen in October 2012. Next key resistance levels lie at $37.49, the February 2012 peak, and the August 2011 swing high of $44.22.
Conversely, if XAG/USD slips beneath $34.00, immediate support emerges at the March 26 low of $33.51. Once hurdled, the next stop is $33.00.

Silver FAQs
Silver is a precious metal highly traded among investors. It has been historically used as a store of value and a medium of exchange. Although less popular than Gold, traders may turn to Silver to diversify their investment portfolio, for its intrinsic value or as a potential hedge during high-inflation periods. Investors can buy physical Silver, in coins or in bars, or trade it through vehicles such as Exchange Traded Funds, which track its price on international markets.
Silver prices can move due to a wide range of factors. Geopolitical instability or fears of a deep recession can make Silver price escalate due to its safe-haven status, although to a lesser extent than Gold's. As a yieldless asset, Silver tends to rise with lower interest rates. Its moves also depend on how the US Dollar (USD) behaves as the asset is priced in dollars (XAG/USD). A strong Dollar tends to keep the price of Silver at bay, whereas a weaker Dollar is likely to propel prices up. Other factors such as investment demand, mining supply - Silver is much more abundant than Gold - and recycling rates can also affect prices.
Silver is widely used in industry, particularly in sectors such as electronics or solar energy, as it has one of the highest electric conductivity of all metals - more than Copper and Gold. A surge in demand can increase prices, while a decline tends to lower them. Dynamics in the US, Chinese and Indian economies can also contribute to price swings: for the US and particularly China, their big industrial sectors use Silver in various processes; in India, consumers' demand for the precious metal for jewellery also plays a key role in setting prices.
Silver prices tend to follow Gold's moves. When Gold prices rise, Silver typically follows suit, as their status as safe-haven assets is similar. The Gold/Silver ratio, which shows the number of ounces of Silver needed to equal the value of one ounce of Gold, may help to determine the relative valuation between both metals. Some investors may consider a high ratio as an indicator that Silver is undervalued, or Gold is overvalued. On the contrary, a low ratio might suggest that Gold is undervalued relative to Silver.
