Spot Silver Price Plunges 8% to $48.11 per Ounce, Hitting a Multi-Month Low
On October 21, 2025, the international spot silver price suffered a sharp drop, plunging by 8% in a single day to as low as $48.11 per ounce, marking its lowest level in months and intensifying pressure across the precious metals market.
Analysts attribute the silver price crash to a stronger U.S. dollar, shifting interest rate expectations, and waning safe-haven demand. Robust U.S. economic data reignited speculation that the Federal Reserve may delay rate cuts, driving both the dollar and Treasury yields higher, which weighed heavily on gold and silver.
At the same time, concerns over industrial demand growth have surfaced. Reports indicate slower expansion in electronics and photovoltaic sectors, prompting investors to reassess silver’s industrial demand outlook.
As of press time, spot silver traded at $48.11 per ounce, down about 8.05% on the day. Analysts warn that if the price remains below the $50 resistance level, further downside could follow. In the long term, silver’s trend will likely depend on the U.S. dollar path, Federal Reserve policies, and global economic momentum.
