Mahmoud Maldavi, a senior official of the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), stated on August 22nd local time that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is the main obstacle to reaching a ceasefire agreement in the Gaza Strip. He stated that Netanyahus deliberate delay in responding to mediators proposals and his refusal to take any steps to reach an agreement demonstrate that he is "unwilling to release hostages and would rather continue the war and commit genocide at the expense of the lives of those held hostage and the future of the region." Mahmoud believes that Netanyahus insistence on obstructing all mediation efforts proves that he is "the true obstructor of any agreement" and that he prioritizes his own political and personal interests over the lives of innocent people.UN Spokesperson: UN Secretary-General Guterres urged the United States and Venezuela to ease tensions and exercise restraint.Market news: The United States imposes sanctions on ships and entities related to Iran.Freddie Mac: As of August 21, the average rate on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage was 6.58%.Germanys DAX30 index closed up 13.51 points, or 0.06%, at 24,290.61 points on Thursday, August 21; Britains FTSE 100 index closed up 20.71 points, or 0.22%, at 9,308.85 points on Thursday, August 21; Frances CAC40 index closed down 34.74 points, or 0.44%, at 7,938.29 points on Thursday, August 21; The STOXX 50 index closed down 11.47 points, or 0.21%, at 5460.85 points on Thursday, August 21; the Spanish IBEX 35 index closed up 2.40 points, or 0.02%, at 15297.50 points on Thursday, August 21; and the Italian FTSE MIB index closed up 130.19 points, or 0.30%, at 42995.00 points on Thursday, August 21.

Silver Price Analysis: XAG/USD is around the daily high and is set for additional appreciation

Silver receives new offers on Friday, snapping a two-day losing run and halting this week's retreat from an eight-month peak. The white metal maintains its bid tone throughout the first half of the European session and is currently positioned near the daily high, in the vicinity of $23.75.

 

The development of purchasing at the $23.40-$23.35 horizontal resistance breakpoint, which is now acting as support, favors bullish traders from a technical standpoint. The restrictive setting is backed by oscillators on the daily chart maintaining their positive bias and oscillators on the 4-hour chart regaining momentum.

 

Consequently, a subsequent rally toward recovering the $24.00 threshold remains a real possibility. The next significant barrier is located at the multi-month high, in the vicinity of the $24.30 region that was achieved on Wednesday. If this barrier is cleared, the XAG/USD should rise towards the $25.00 psychological level, with an intermediate barrier near the $24.60-$24.70 region.

 

On the other hand, the $24.40-$24.35 resistance-turned-support, which is also the daily low, should protect the near-term downside before to the $24.15 confluence support. The latter consists of the 100-period SMA on the 4-hour chart and an ascending trend line extending from the November low, which should provide a solid foundation for the XAG/USD.

 

A convincing breakthrough, followed by a decline below the $23.00 round number, will negate the positive view and alter the bias towards bearish traders. The XAG/USD may therefore become susceptible and accelerate its decline to test the $22.00 round-figure level, with some intermediate support in the $22.55-$22.50 horizontal zone.
