Silver Futures Market News and Commentary

Dollar Higher on Hawkish US PPI and Sharp T-note Yield Rise

The dollar index (DXY00) rose by +0.57% on Thursday’s hawkish US PPI report, which caused market participants to slightly dial back expectations for a Fed rate cut within the next few months.  The dollar index also saw support from Thursday’s sharp +10 bp rise in the 10-year T-note yield, which improved the dollar’s interest rate differentials.

Weekly US initial unemployment claims fell by -1,000 to 209,000, showing a stronger labor market than expectations for a rise to +218,000.  Continuing claims rose +17,000 to 1.811 million from a revised 1.794 million (preliminary 1.906 million), showing a stronger labor market than expectations of 1.905 million.

Thursday’s Feb US retail sales report of +0.6% m/m was weaker than market expectations of +0.8%, and Jan was revised lower to -1.1% m/m from -0.8%.  The Feb retail sales ex-autos report of +0.3% m/m was weaker than market expectations of +0.5%, and Jan was revised lower to -0.8% m/m from -0.6%.
