Silver prices continued their upward momentum for the third consecutive day on Friday, rising by more than 2%, according to FX Street. This rally contributed to a weekly gain exceeding 7.40%, marking a significant increase for the precious metal.

The sustained rise in silver pushed prices closer to the $70 mark, reflecting growing investor interest amid ongoing market volatility. The US Dollar's movements have also played a role in silver's performance this week.

For Japanese investors, silver's strong performance may offer diversification opportunities in a market where yen fluctuations and equity volatility remain key considerations.
