Silver price today, Thursday, October 15, 2026: Silver prices opened at the lowest level since July - Yahoo Finance

AI desk brief

Silver December futures opened at $55.80/oz on Oct. 15, the lowest open since July 20, after yesterday’s hotter-than-expected September CPI hit metals. The contract later recovered to $56.85 by 7:13 a.m. ET, but the near-term setup remains tied to today’s PPI release: another upside surprise would likely pressure silver further via firmer rate expectations and real yields.

On a comparative basis, the open was 5.5% below last week’s level and 11.5% below a month ago, though still 9.5% higher year over year. The piece offers little beyond a price check and macro event risk, but it clearly flags inflation data as the key catalyst for the next move.
