Silver climbed back above $32 per ounce on Monday, recovering some losses from the previous session as tariff warnings from US President Donald Trump triggered increased safe-haven demand for the metal. Trump announced a blanket 25% tariff on all steel and aluminum imports, effective later today, with additional tariffs to be revealed on Tuesday or Wednesday. This announcement coincided with China's retaliatory tariffs on select US exports, set to take effect today. Meanwhile, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz stated that the EU is ready to respond "within an hour" if the US imposes tariffs on European goods. Silver prices have also been buoyed by expectations of stronger industrial demand, particularly from the renewable energy sector, along with forecasts of continued supply deficits.(Cay) Newsmaker23
