Silver Prices Retreat Amid Profit-Taking Measures, $68 Target in Sight

Silver prices have retreated to trade near $64.73 per ounce after peaking at $66.79, following a rapid price increase that left investors scrambling to lock in profits.

The recent pullback is largely attributed to these profit-taking measures, but the broader trend remains underpinned by easing expectations for Federal Reserve interest rate hikes and steady demand from the solar energy sector.

Analysts see potential for the metal to reach $68, though short-term volatility remains a key monitorable factor in the market.
