On July 21, Sprott Physical Silver Trust rose 5.14% in pre-market trading, trading at $19.001/share, with turnover of $584,300. The fund is a physical silver trust whose price directly tracks spot silver movements.
On the news front, silver had previously undergone a sustained sharp decline, with a single-week drop reaching 9.5% in late June, as markets were weighed down by rising Fed rate hike expectations and a strengthening US dollar. The dollar index climbed to a 13-month high, directly pressuring dollar-denominated precious metals. Goldman Sachs warned that a July rate hike carries roughly 50% probability, while gold briefly broke below the $4,000/oz level during the selloff period.
Recently, selling momentum has gradually exhausted, and silver prices have entered an oversold recovery phase, driving a rebound in physical silver trust shares. Analysts also noted that silver has been in a supply deficit for six consecutive years, with the fundamental supply gap providing floor support for prices.
Sprott Physical Silver Trust is an exchange-traded commodity fund that invests primarily in physical silver bullion in London Good Delivery bar form. It was formed on June 30, 2010 and is domiciled in Canada.
