''MCX Silver has showed a negative movement and trade below 70700 levels. Silver markets initially pulled back during the course of the trading session on Tuesday but then turned around to break much higher,'' added Mr Purohit.
''Gold steadied as market players assessed Fed's monetary policy stance amid mixed comments from Fed officials and US Treasury Secretary and mixed economic data. Amid other factors, support from persisting virus risks, inflation concerns, and US stimulus measures is countered by weaker investor interest and concerns about Indian consumer demand,'' said  Ravindra Rao, VP- Head Commodity Research at Kotak Securities.
