The high in prices could be linked to the US jobs data which presented a bleak economy and hampered hopes of a quick turnover for the economy. The rising tensions around US-China trade relations contributed to the appeal of safe-haven investments. However, risk appetite also improved side by side as reports emerged of successful early-stage trials for a vaccine to combat Covid-19.
• In the fourth week of May, silver had its highest price point on 25 May at Rs.51,400 per kg, having opened at Rs.48,250 and closing the month at Rs.50,100 per kg.
