February 7th - US President Trump tweeted: "We need more competition to fight our enemies—the national television networks that spread fake news. Facilitating a good deal like Nexstar-Tegna will help combat fake news because it will bring more, higher-level, and more sophisticated competition. Those who oppose it dont fully understand the benefits for them, but they will in the future. Get this deal done!"February 7th - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy posted a message on the 7th local time, stating that he received a briefing from the Ukrainian negotiating team following their talks with the US and Russia. The Ukrainian negotiating team provided him with a detailed overview of the progress of the negotiations. He stated that Ukraine needs to achieve substantial results, and one of the most important foundations for a peaceful resolution is effective security guarantees.February 7th - While the control dispute at Nexperia remains unresolved, another Chinese acquisition of a British chip company is attracting increasing attention. February 7th was the deadline set by the UK government for the mandatory sale of the FTDI acquisition, subject to national security review. This overseas acquisition by China, completed in 2021, is now entering its final countdown to mandatory sale. Back in November 2024, the UK government formally notified the Chinese consortium that it must transfer all its shares in Future Technology Devices International Limited (FTDI), a UK USB bridge chip company, by the stipulated time. The UK cited the National Security and Investments Act (NSIA), which came into effect in 2022, citing "potential threats to national security." An industry insider stated that the Chinese consortium has been trying to secure more time. The latest extension application is still awaiting a response from the UK, and based on past experience, there is still a certain probability of the extension being approved.February 7th - It was learned from the Ministry of Water Resources that, in order to further improve the construction, operation, and management mechanisms of major water conservancy projects, the Ministry of Water Resources and the National Development and Reform Commission recently issued the "Implementation Opinions on Improving the Construction, Operation, and Management Mechanisms of Major Water Conservancy Projects." Major water conservancy projects are important infrastructure for promoting high-quality economic and social development, playing a crucial supporting role in ensuring flood control, water supply, food security, and ecological security. The opinions are divided into four parts: general requirements, improving the high-quality construction mechanism, improving the high-level operation mechanism, and improving the high-efficiency management mechanism. The opinions require that, focusing on the national water network construction goals of "complete systems, safety and reliability, intensive and efficient, green and intelligent, smooth circulation, and orderly regulation," the government should guide and the market should participate, coordinating "hard investment" and "soft construction," improving the construction and operation mechanism of projects with clear responsibilities, diversified investment, and a focus on both quality and efficiency, and forming a comprehensive, data-driven, and efficient management and guarantee system to achieve high-quality construction, high-level operation, and high-efficiency management of major water conservancy projects.Algeria plans to cancel its air services agreement with the United Arab Emirates.

Silver Prices Stabilized Due to Concerns Over Ukraine's Counter-hawkish Fed Policy

Tips

  • Despite mounting inflation concerns, silver prices remained stable.

  • The dollar strengthens upon the publication of the Federal Reserve's minutes.

  • Benchmark yields decreased following a week-long surge.

  • Oil prices are falling as the US and EIA pledge to release critical stockpiles.

 

Silver prices remained unchanged as mounting inflation fears fueled demand for the safe-haven metal. Benchmark rates fell today on the Fed's announcement of aggressive policy tightening. The 10-year yield reaches its highest level since March 2019 of 2.67 percent. Gold and silver prices climbed as fears of escalating inflation fueled demand for safe-haven assets. The inflation scenario contradicts the Fed's instructions to raise interest rates. Oil prices fell as EIA member states announced plans to release additional strategic reserves. This is the largest release since the stockpile was established in 1980. Analysts disagree on the extent to which the release of supply will affect market tightness.

 

For the latest week, jobless claims decreased by 5,000 to 166,000. This figure, which is the lowest since 1968, indicates the extent to which the job market tightened last week. Dow Jones estimated the figure at 200,000. The job market has been experiencing a significant scarcity of workers. Increased demand for labor has resulted in rising wages and soaring inflation.

Technical Evaluation

Silver prices remained relatively stable near the 24.6 level, as the recent sanctions against Russia continue to underpin XAG/USD. Silver, on the other hand, may suffer downward pressure to the $24.00 mark as yields rise and the dollar strengthens. Bulls may target silver in order to break through the $25 level and maintain momentum. Near the horizontal trendline near 23.6, there is support. Near the $26.00 level, resistance is located. Short-term momentum shifted negative as the fast stochastic crossed below the zero line, signaling a sell signal.

 

The medium-term momentum is positive, as indicated by the histogram's positive correlation with the MACD (moving average convergence divergence). The MACD histogram's trajectory is positive but decelerating, indicating a negative trend in price movement.
