Treasury Ends Silver Subsidy Prompting Higher Prices
The Treasury moves to stop selling silver to domestic industry at 1.29 an ounce, ending the subsidy. Market price is rising past 1.80, with expectations to settle near 1.50 as producers plan price hikes. The shift preserves some supply via 2 million ounces weekly but raises costs for film, silverware, and other silver users.
