Silver futures traded lower for a fourth consecutive session. 3/5/26

Silver futures experienced significant selling pressure, trading lower for the fourth consecutive session and reaching a two-week closing low. The downward trend was primarily driven by a stronger U.S. dollar and higher yields, which impacted prices across the broader metals complex. Silver futures, which recently came off a one-month high, are now trading back within a recent range between 71'5 and 93'5. Other major metals futures markets also saw declines, with Gold futures down about 1% and Copper futures falling approximately 1 3/4%. Platinum and Palladium futures also faced downward pressure as the market continued to digest shifting dynamics in currencies, interest rates, and geopolitical tensions.
