Silver price (XAG/USD) consolidates in a tight range for the last four trading sessions. The upside in the Silver price remains limited to around $31.00 as investors await the United States (US) Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for June, which will be published at 12:30 GMT.
The inflation data will significantly influence market speculation for Federal Reserve (Fed) rate cuts this year. According to the CME FedWatch tool, traders expect that the central bank will choose the September meeting as the earliest point for pivoting to policy normalization. The tool also shows that there will be two rate cuts instead of one as signaled by officials in the latest dot plot.
Meanwhile, the US CPI report is expected to show that the core consumer inflation, which strips off volatile food and energy prices, grew steadily, while annual headline figure declined to 3.1% from May’s reading of 3.3%.
