Hecla Mining is trading 5.01% down at $18.67 as silver futures fell amid higher rate-hike expectations and broader risk-off trading.
- Silver futures opened at $64.79, down 0.6% from September 11’s close, then reached $63.35 in early trading.
- Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other major cryptocurrencies are rising, so crypto sentiment is not explaining Hecla Mining’s weakness.
- Latest identifiable news remains earlier second-quarter results; no fresh September 14 announcement found.
