Fed Turns Hawkish—Risk Incoming? A Silver Bear Spread Setup—and Why I’m Waiting on Gold
First, I want to share a screenshot from my previous analysis of silver and gold price action.

A little over a week later, silver has already printed a new high, and gold has also surged well past 5,000. $白银主连 2603(SImain)$$白银2603(SI2603)$$2倍做多白银ETF-ProShares(AGQ)$$白银ETF-iShares(SLV)$$微白银主连 2603(SILmain)$

💡 Beyond Silver: Savvy Investors Eye the Next "Power Metal" — Uranium
Silver is shining, but a rarer, more strategic metal is grabbing the spotlight: Uranium. As Artificial Intelligence (AI) drives a global power surge, nuclear fuel is preparing for a massive breakout.
