He warned that Prime Minister Sanae Takaichis massive spending plan could trigger overheated inflation. Kuroda is known for his aggressive monetary stimulus policy launched in 2013, a key component of former Prime Minister Shinzo Abes "Abenomics" reflation strategy. He stated that with robust economic growth and steady wage increases, the Bank of Japan may raise interest rates approximately twice a year in 2026 and 2027. "Today, Japan faces inflation and a depreciating yen. Japan needs to shift to tighter fiscal and monetary policies. The Bank of Japan must gradually raise interest rates to a neutral level. Fiscal policy must also be tightened. I have doubts about whether increasing spending and tax cuts are appropriate." Kuroda warned that expansionary fiscal policy could backfire, exacerbating inflationary pressures and pushing up bond yields.

Silver markets have retreated somewhat during Monday's trading session as the 50-day exponential moving average (EMA) continues to act as a bit of a price magnet, and of course, we are sitting in a region that has a large amount of market memory. The candlestick is obviously pretty ugly, and a break below the $20 level on a daily close might spark a significant amount of selling. Moreover, if interest rates continue to exhibit signs of growth, this could exert additional downward pressure on silver.

 

China's apparent slowdown and the fact that silver is an industrial metal only serve to exacerbate the situation. In other words, the question will be whether there will be sufficient demand for silver to maintain high prices. Currently, the $21 level appears to be a strong resistance barrier that will be tough to overcome; if we could, the market may reach the $22 level.

As of late, the market has been exceedingly raucous, having soared to the sky. At this time, the concern is whether or not we have the potential to fall hard enough to fill the gap below, which is at the $19.00 mark. In this circumstance, a major decline is just waiting to occur. Pay particular attention to the US dollar, as it will have a significant impact on what occurs next, since a strengthening US currency normally has a negative effect on the silver market.
