Hecla Mining is trading 4.07% down at $17.92 as higher rates and Treasury yields pressure precious-metals equities after the Federal Reserve raised its benchmark target range to 3.75%-4.00% on September 16, 2026.
- Silver rose 2.75% to $64.72 earlier in the session.
- Bitcoin and Ethereum are nearly flat since the prior close, so crypto sentiment is not driving the move.
- No new company-specific Hecla announcement was identified on September 16, 2026; the decline appears primarily macro-driven.
