The silver price climbed 0.3 percent on Wednesday to hit $15.99 an ounce as the dollar dipped 0.3 percent against other leading currencies, according to Reuters. The softer dollar, along with strong US employment data, suggests a rate hike by the US Federal Reserve is likely to occur later in the year.
