Silver prices rose on Tuesday, as the US dollar fell against most currencies, after the release of weak economic data.

 

The US consumer price index rose by 0.3% in August, lower than forecasts of 0.4%. 

 

The core reading (excluding food and fuel prices) rose by 0.1%, lower than forecasts of 0.3%.

 

Investors are anticipating the next move of the US Federal Reserve, especially after hinting at reducing the size of its bond-buying program before the end of 2021.

 

The dollar index fell against a basket of major currencies by 0.2% to 92.4 points as of 19:37 GMT, after hitting a high of 92.6 points and a low of 92.3 points.

 

As of 19:37 GMT, silver spot prices rose 0.1% to $23.853 an ounce.
