Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No investment rating for the industry is provided in the report. 2. Core View This week, the precious metals market was affected by the Fed's interest - rate cut expectations and Trump's tariffs, with increased market volatility, and the silver price fluctuated more significantly. The Shanghai Silver market continued its strong trend, and market activity increased significantly [2]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Overview and Market Review - Overall Market Performance: From July 14 - 18, 2025, the price difference between the near - month contract 2508 and the main contract 2509 of Shanghai Silver futures was 16 points, and the overall market volatility was not large. The closing price of Shanghai Silver 2508 was 9246, up 123 points or 1.35%, with a trading volume of 90514 and an amplitude of 2.05%, and a position of 136900. The closing price of Shanghai Silver 2509 was 9262, up 129 points or 1.41%, with a trading volume of 14917, an amplitude of 2.01%, and a position of 35200 [3]. 3.2 Influence Factor Analysis - International Aspect: On the 18th local time, US President Trump urged Fed Chairman Powell to cut interest rates on social media. Recently, Trump has repeatedly pressured Powell to cut interest rates. On July 15, Trump said that the Fed should cut interest rates by 3 percentage points, which could save one trillion dollars a year [9][10]. - Data Aspect: In June, the US PPI was flat month - on - month, and the May data was revised up to a 0.3% increase. It was the mildest annual increase since last September, up 2.3% year - on - year. The core PPI, excluding food, energy, and trade services, was also flat, up 2.5% year - on - year, the smallest increase since the end of 2023. The previously released CPI increased by 0.3% monthly [10]. - Tariff Aspect: The current breakthrough in the market may be driven by the intensification of tariff conflicts. After Trump announced a 30% tariff increase on Mexico and the EU, Mexico quickly condemned it as "unfair treatment" and launched an anti - dumping investigation on caustic soda, with the possibility of further escalation of policy confrontation [10]. 3.3 Conclusion and Outlook Trump's renewed pressure on Powell to cut interest rates soon boosted the silver price to a certain extent. However, the good economic data released by the US last week cooled the expectations of interest - rate cuts, and the US dollar rebounded. In the short - term, the silver price will fluctuate with a slightly upward trend [11].
