On October 17, Bank of England Chief Economist David Peel said that policymakers should adopt a more cautious approach to interest rate cuts amid rising risks of sticky inflation. Peel said he expects further rate cuts over the coming year if the economy tracks the Bank of Englands forecasts. However, he warned that rate cuts should not be made too quickly due to the slow pace of inflation slowdown. UK inflation has risen again this year, driven by food and energy prices. Data released next week is expected to show that inflation reached 4% in September, double the central banks 2% target. Households expectations of future inflation have risen accordingly, and Peel and other hawkish members worry that this could create a "feedback loop" by pushing up wage demands, further exacerbating price increases. Peel called the current level of inflation "disappointing" and said that "a more cautious pace should be taken from now on to withdraw monetary policy constraints to ensure that inflation continues to fall back towards the 2% target."Kremlin: Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban told Putin he is ready to host the proposed US-Russia summit.EU spokesman: We welcome the proposed meeting between US President Trump and Russian President Putin if it contributes to peace in Ukraine.Hungarian Prime Minister Orban: I have held talks with Russian President Putin and preparations for the meeting are in full swing.Kremlin: Details of the call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban will be released soon.

Silver Price Analysis: Near 50 DMA, XAG/USD rises to mid-$23.00s

Silver attracted buyers around its 50-day simple moving average (SMA) on Friday, halting its previous day's regression from its highest level since April 2022. In the early European session, the precious metal maintains a moderately bullish tone, although the intraday increase lacks bullish confidence.

 

The XAG/USD has formed a rectangle pattern on the daily chart during the previous half-month, bouncing in a typical range. This indicates traders' hesitation and calls for care before putting aggressive direction bets. The inability to gain acceptance above the $24.50 supply zone overnight validates the trading range resistance, which should now serve as a pivot point.

 

Given that technical indications on the daily chart have only recently begun to drift into negative territory, it would be smart to await a sustained advance beyond the aforementioned barrier before putting bullish wagers. The XAG/USD pair might then attempt to recapture the $25.00 psychological level for the first time since April 2022. On the way to $26.00, the momentum could be extended towards the next significant obstacle near the $25.35 region.

 

Conversely, any further decline below the horizontal zone between $23.40 and $23.30 may continue to find support around the $23.00 to $22.95 region. This is followed by support in the $22.75 range, which, if forcefully broken, could pull the XAG/USD to the next key support near the $22.20-$22.15 zone before the $22.00 level.
