The U.S. dollar index dropped 3.40% to a four-month low, making silver more attractive to international buyers.

The key market event this week is Wednesday\u2019s U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) report, expected to show a 0.3% increase in February after January\u2019s 0.5% gain\u2014the biggest monthly rise since August 2023.<\/p>\n
If inflation remains elevated, it could force the Fed to delay rate cuts, potentially limiting silver\u2019s upside. On the other hand, a softer CPI print would strengthen expectations of monetary easing, creating a more favorable backdrop for silver.

Silver\u2019s near-term direction will largely depend on inflation trends, interest rate expectations, and global economic conditions.
