BTCCSquare news:

Spot silver prices whipsawed this week with a 10% drop followed by a 2% rebound, settling at $73/oz amid futures trading 5% lower at $72.34. The metal logged 11 daily moves exceeding 5% since January—a volatility spike UBS analysts called 'risk-off panic' rather than fundamental collapse.

One-month silver contract volatility now exceeds 100%, prompting UBS to caution against near-term positions. 'Significant price swings are likely,' the bank warned, noting silver may struggle to hold above $85 without sustained investor inflows.

Longer-term, UBS maintains constructive outlooks citing 2026 economic recovery potential, dollar weakness, and a projected 300M oz annual supply deficit against 400M oz investment demand.

Risk warning: Digital asset trading is an emerging industry with bright prospects, but it also comes with huge risks as it is a new market. The risk is especially high in leveraged trading since leverage magnifies profits and amplifies risks at the same time. Please make sure you have a thorough understanding of the industry, the leveraged trading models, and the rules of trading before opening a position. Additionally, we strongly recommend that you identify your risk tolerance and only accept the risks you are willing to take. All trading involves risks, so you must be cautious when entering the market.
