![[News] Japan Develops 10nm Nanoimprint Technology, with Potential to Tackle EUV Bottleneck – TrendForce](https://earth-news.info/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/329851-news-japan-develops-10nm-nanoimprint-technology-with-potential-to-tackle-euv-bottleneck-trendforce-360x180.jpg)
Spot Silver is surging late on Friday, tests 12-week high.
XAG/USD pings $24.30 as Silver rebounds, following broad-market risk sentiment higher.
Metals are pushing higher with the NY market set for an early close.
XAG/USD tapped $24.30 in the back half of Friday’s trading, testing Silver’s highest bids in almost 12 weeks. Market sentiment is testing higher heading into the trading week’s close, and markets are set to see an early drop in trading volumes.
Wall Street will be going dark a little bit early today, with US markets slated to shut down at 13:00 EST.
Volumes and overall price momentum, already thin on Fridays, is expected to dry up a little bit earlier than usual this week.
Silver is getting bid out of a recent near-term consolidation range, and has gained almost 18% despite seeing an overall downtrend in 2023.
Friday’s late bump in the XAG/USD sees Spot Silver trading into overall positive territory for the year since declining from September’s peak at $25.00.
XAG/USD Technical Outlook
Friday’s surge back over $24.20 sees XAG/USD making a break of a descending trendline from May’s peaks above $26.00, and Silver is making a break away from the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) near $23.25.
The 50-day SMA is rotating into a bullish stance from $22.75, and a bullish crossover of the longer moving average could see technical support firm up for a longer-term move higher in the bids.
Should bearish price momentum return to the fold, a downside break of $23.50 will harden the descending trendline and set up Silver bears for a fresh run at the last swing low into the $22.00 handle.
