Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda will speak in ten minutes; the final reading of the UKs May services PMI will be released in ten minutes.June 3rd - Market consensus indicates that Canadas May employment figures, to be released on Friday, will show a modest increase of 10,000 jobs, while the unemployment rate will remain unchanged at 6.9%. Scotiabank reports that Canadas labor market has been weak this year. Net employment declined in three of the first four months, with a cumulative loss of over 100,000 jobs by April. Meanwhile, the Canadian economy has entered a technical recession. First-quarter GDP is projected to contract by 0.1% on an annualized quarterly basis. However, the bank notes that this negative GDP growth is largely due to a significant increase in imports; while household consumption expenditure remains positive, indicating that domestic demand has not yet deteriorated significantly. Nevertheless, the bank believes that persistently weak employment data, coupled with continued trade policy uncertainty and geopolitical risks dragging down the economic outlook, will likely lead the Bank of Canada to maintain a wait-and-see stance. Currently, the market widely expects that under Governor Tiff Macklems leadership, the Bank of Canada will maintain the overnight interest rate unchanged for at least the next few policy meetings, showing no hurry to adjust the direction of monetary policy.German official: Ultimately, we need a form that is as effective as possible and is considered legitimate by Europeans.German officials: Opportunities for dialogue between Europe and Russia on the Ukraine issue are slowly opening up, but this will take several months.Iranian Parliament Deputy Speaker: Iran is willing to negotiate, but does not trust the commitments of the United States.

Silver price (XAG/USD) maintains modest gains near $20.60 as it probes the metal's retreat from a key short-term resistance line on Monday morning. Despite this, the XAG/USD maintains its three-day winning trend and extends yesterday's recovery from the lowest levels since November 4, 2022.

 

Nonetheless, the impending bear cross on the MACD and the bullion's inability to remain above the 200-SMA, not to mention the failure to cross a two-week-old resistance line, give Silver price bears reason for optimism.

 

Consequently, the bullion remains on track to retest the two-week-old horizontal support zone close to $20.40. However, the metal's further decline may make it difficult to break the $20.00 psychological magnet.

 

The focus will then shift to the monthly low of $19.95 and the November 2022 low around $18.85.

 

On the contrary, recovery movements remain elusive unless the XAG/USD remains below the downward-sloping resistance line from late February, around $20.90 at the latest. The $21.00 round number also functions as an upside filter.

 

The previous week's high near $21.30 may serve as the last line of defense for the XAG/USD skeptics if Silver purchasers maintain control above $21.00.
