Silver prices climbed 1.14% to approach $57.80 during the Asian trading session on Wednesday, according to FX Street. This uptick highlights a positive move in precious metals as traders position themselves ahead of a key US Federal Reserve policy announcement.

Meanwhile, currency pairs EUR/USD and USD/CAD remained relatively stable. The euro-dollar pair held steady around 1.1390 for the second consecutive day, while USD/CAD consolidated near the 1.4100 mark during the Asian session, FX Street reported. Market participants are awaiting the outcome of the Federal Open Market Committee’s two-day policy meeting, concluding later this Wednesday.

For Japanese investors, these developments underscore the cautious market sentiment leading into the Fed’s decision, which could influence FX and commodity dynamics in the region.
