Silver ETFs rise up to 6% as silver tops $50 after US midterms
In short
Silver ETFs rose as much as 6% after silver went back above $50 an ounce. The move came after the Democrats won the US midterm election.
This matters because silver prices can move sharply, and experts say investors should not rush in. The report says demand is still uncertain and prices could swing again.
