Gold futures saw a slight increase of 0.17% for the week, while silver futures experienced a more significant drop of 2.43%. This divergence is attributed to the Federal Reserve signaling a more hawkish stance, which strengthened the U.S. dollar and put pressure on non-interest-bearing assets like gold. Silver's dual nature as both a financial asset and an industrial commodity made it more vulnerable to the combined effects of rising interest rate expectations and weakening global industrial demand.
