  "account": "On Friday, August 14, 2026, silver (SI=F) September futures commenced trading at $64.63 per ounce, marking a 0.6% decrease from Thursday's closing price. However, silver prices swiftly climbed this morning, reaching $65.14 at 8:03 a.m. ET. As soft inflation reports emerged earlier in the week, many investors reduced their expectations of a rate increase in September. According to the latest data from the CME Group's FedWatch tool, there is a 69.4% probability that the Federal Reserve will maintain current rates in September. Nevertheless, 30.6% of economists anticipate a 25-basis-point increase next month. Comparing these percentages to the previous month, a significant shift in expectations is evident. Last month, 42% of economists expected the Fed to keep rates unchanged, 50% predicted a 25-basis-point increase, and only 8% believed the Fed would raise rates by 50 basis points. The steadfastness of silver prices can be attributed to the growing majority opposing a rate hike, as precious metals like silver do not yield interest.",
