Trend of Silver Rate in Panaji for May 2020 (rates per kg)

• In May, silver opened at a good price of Rs.42,530 per kg in Panaji, which was on the back of grim US payroll data that indicated a bleak economic forecast with job losses and possible recession. However, the price dipped to its lowest price for the month of May on the very next day, falling to Rs.41,010 per kg on 2 May. This was attributed to rising optimism that the economy would recover in the light of several countries gradually easing restrictions with economic activities getting back into full swing. However, it picked up again the rest of the week with rising tensions between US and China about new laws announced by the Chinese government in Hong Kong, which led to increasing concerns about tariffs being imposed by the US on China. This led to investors again being bearish about equities, which led to further gains for precious metals overall.
• In the second week of May, silver continued to rise, dip, but overall hold steady throughout. This was in response to the release of the US jobless claims report which showed how bleak the situation really was, stoking pessimism around recovery of the economy any time soon. However, the dollar remained firm and several countries eased up on restrictions around economic day-to-day activities that were blocked during the lockdowns, which again gave rise to optimism in stock markets, leading to temporary dips in the price of precious metals. However, with the coronavirus pandemic not abating, the appeal of precious metals as a safe-haven investment continued to be strong. However, the news of a second wave of coronavirus infections in countries that had eased up on restrictions led to further buying of precious metals leading to increased prices.
• In the third week of May, the price of silver stood at Rs.43,160 and kept increasing through the week until it ended at Rs.48,200 at the end of the week. The highest price of the week was Rs.48,510 on 19 May. This was a three-week high as tensions increased between China and the US stoking fears of an additional factor that would hamper the global economy on top of the coronavirus pandemic that had already wreaked havoc on almost every country in the world. With US jobs data also being dismal, this underscored the reality of economic recovery being slow in the long haul. This led to prices of bullions increasing as risk appetite lowered and investors looked to precious metals as a safe haven investment in unpredictable times.
• In the fourth week of May, rising US-China tensions around the Hong Kong protests led to investors ditching high-risk equities and choosing bullions as a safe-haven investment in times of rising political and economic unpredictability. Silver overall had an incline in prices in the month of May in Panaji at 17.79% which was in keeping with global political and economic trends.

Trend of Silver Rate in Panaji for April 2020 (rates per kg)

• Silver opened in Panaji at a price of Rs.40,500 per kg which held steady throughout the first week for a few days and then dipped by the end of the week. Precious metals saw a high this week as the coronavirus continued unabated through nearly every country in the world, sparking fears of a global recession, which contributed to the appeal for the white metal as a safe haven investment. However, by the end of the first week of April, there was a dip due to the strengthening of the US dollar and the equities market as deaths related to the coronavirus started slowing down, leading to more confidence in the stock market. This led to the lowest price for silver occurring on 6 April at Rs.40,360 per kg.
• In the second week of April, silver hovered at Rs.41,100 for several days rising to Rs.41,310 at the end of the week. This was in part due to the anticipation around the OPEC meet and the stimulus measures announced by the US Federal reserve which elevated the appeal of equities once again. Even though prices remained steady, it showed a trend towards peaking as fears of a global recession lingered in the background with the coronavirus still being active throughout the world. This resulted in prices remaining high overall.
• By the third week, the prices of silver continued to be on an upward trend with the highest price of the month occurring on 21 April of Rs.42,710 per kg. The factors that contributed to this were the dip in oil prices that lowered the risk appetite and led to a fall in equities as well. This led to a scramble for precious metals as a safe haven investment in light of a possible global recession affecting the stock market.
• By the fourth week, the weakening of the dollar in light of the coronavirus crisis led to a further steadying of silver prices. Rising US-China tensions around the coronavirus further led to a weakening of equities and increased the appeal for silver. Overall, the trend for silver in the month of April in Panaji was an upward trend to 2.51%.

• By the end of the month, silver had picked up again to be a modest Rs.40,500 per kg on 31 March which was a good recovery from the slump of nearly 3% from the previous weeks. This was boosted by the stimulus offered by the US Federal Reserve with its cuts on interest rates.
