Silver Price Today: XAG/USD Gains as Bullish Momentum Extends

Silver Posts Modest Daily Gain; Up 26% YTD

Silver prices (XAG/USD) moved slightly higher at the start of the week, rising 0.29% to $36.41 per troy ounce in early Monday trading, according to data compiled by Tredu. This is up from Friday’s close of $36.30, reflecting continued investor confidence in the precious metal.

The metal has shown strong year-to-date (YTD) performance, climbing 26.02% since the beginning of 2025, driven by safe-haven demand, robust industrial use cases, and global inflationary pressures.

The positive momentum in XAG/USD continues amid global uncertainty and increasing central bank gold and silver reserves. Analysts note that a strong technical base around the $35.00 level supports further upside if macroeconomic conditions remain favorable.
