[SMM Silver Morning Review] Today's SMM spot silver ingot quotes are mainly at parity or small premiums. On the macro front, sentiment over US-Iran peace talks pushed silver T+D up over 4% today. In the physical market, selling increased while demand remained tepid. Early morning offers were at TD+10-30 yuan/kg, but downstream showed little willingness to buy, with most deals at parity. Traders focused more on warrant registration or bank transactions, resulting in thin overall trading.
