In today’s international commodities trading, spot silver surged 2.00%, officially reaching $60.36 per ounce. At the same time, the Japan Meteorological Agency issued a warning that the sea-surface temperature anomaly in the El Niño monitoring region hit a record +4.0°C in September and is certain to persist through the winter.

Silver’s sharp rally reflects dual concerns over inflationary pressures from agricultural and energy supply chains, and rising demand for industrial metals. El Niño’s record-high temperatures are expected to severely disrupt both mining operations and global logistics.

Silver’s gain of more than 2%, together with climate risks, is prompting capital to seek real-value safe-haven assets, supporting the precious metals group’s ongoing uptrend. Bond yields and the U.S. dollar could come under corrective pressure as investors reassess the long-term outlook for commodity inflation.

In crypto markets, a broad-based rise in hedging sentiment could bring renewed attention to $BTC as an independent store of value. However, short-term liquidity may be diverted to the metals market before a clearer new breakout takes shape.
