Silver Prediction for Monday: Key Levels
Univest’s desk is watching whether silver can extend Thursday’s firm tone once trading resumes on 5 October 2026. A sustained move in crude oil prices and the US Dollar Index over the long weekend will be the main swing factor, since both influence MCX pricing directly.
Key Drivers for Monday
- Crude oil jumped 2.11 percent on MCX, its sharpest single-day rise in over a week, even as broader Indian equities sold off.
- India VIX spiked 7.64 percent to 14.52, its sharpest single-day jump since late September, as broad-based selling hit most sectors, with Nifty Auto and Nifty Metal the worst hit even as Nifty IT bucked the trend entirely and rallied.
- Movement in the US Dollar Index, which typically has an inverse relationship with metal and bullion prices on MCX.
Stocks to Watch Alongside This Commodity
Silver often takes cues from both gold and industrial metal trends, so today’s modest gain alongside gold, even as Nifty Metal fell sharply, points to limited safe-haven demand rather than a broad metals rally.
Univest’s desk will revisit this silver prediction for monday once Monday’s opening trade confirms direction.
Why This Is Written for Monday
Indian markets are closed Friday, 2 October 2026, for Gandhi Jayanti, as well as Saturday and Sunday, so Thursday’s closing prices remain the last available data until trading resumes on Monday, 5 October 2026. Treat this silver prediction for monday as a briefing to prepare for that session, not a live call that updates over the long weekend.
