I recently wrote a column on Ukraine’s potential in the titanium value chain with an analysis on the current geopolitical situation and geographic concentration. My key message was to consider Ukraine’s strong legacy and expertise in the industry, Ukraine’s active role in the global supply chain in chloride process feedstock, Ukraine’s recent presence in titanium sponge manufacturing (Ukraine stopped producing titanium sponge in 2021) and overall high quality of the local resource base, when planning diversification options for Western titanium supply. Today, in light of Ukraine’s push to rekindle its mining and processing industry and considering Ukraine’s ambitiou…

XRP is under heavy selling pressure as the broader crypto market struggles with uncertainty, risk aversion, and fading bullish momentum. Fear continues to spread across investors, and liquidity conditions are tightening, putting additional weight on assets that previously demonstrated strength. One of the clearest signs of stress now comes from Binance data — the largest trading platform by volume — showing that XRP Open Interest has dropped to its lowest level since November 2024. This decline highlights a significant shift in trader positioning, signaling that speculative appetite is drying up and leverage is being unwound across the market. According to the latest d…

Endeavour Silver (NYSE: EXK; TSX: EDR) has agreed to sell its Bolañitos mine to Guanajuato Silver Company (TSXV: GSVR) in a deal worth up to $50 million, as it looks to focus more on its other assets in Mexico. The base consideration will consist of $30 million in cash and $10 million in Guanajuato shares, each with a deemed price of about $0.27, representing the stock’s volume-weighted average price for the 10 days prior to the agreement. There is also $10 million in contingent payments tied to production from Bolañitos, with $5 million paid on the first 2 million oz. of silver-equivalent (AgEq) produced and another $5 million on the next 2 million oz. Each conti…

Based on reports, victims of the October 7 attacks in Israel have filed a federal lawsuit against Binance and its founder, Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, claiming the exchange allowed large crypto flows to militant groups. The complaint lists 306 American plaintiffs who say they were killed, injured, or taken hostage and are demanding damages. Dormant Accounts Draw Scrutiny According to the filing, the plaintiffs allege Binance helped move more than $1 billion for Hamas and other US-designated groups over several years. They claim that more than $50 million passed through the platform after the October 7, 2023 assault. These figures sit at the center of the case and could shape…

In recent weeks, I have been writing regularly in my reviews that market participants are currently ignoring many important factors. As a rule, these factors do not concern the U.S. dollar's strength — but rather its weakness. In other words, in situations where a decline in the U.S. currency would be natural and raise no questions, the decline simply does not occur. As a result, the market first ignored the resumption of the Fed's monetary easing cycle, then the government "shutdown," then the second consecutive Fed rate cut, and then Donald Trump's new tariffs. At the same time, it ignored the weakness of the labor market. And I've listed only the "hottest" factors of r…

After reaching $89,217, Bitcoin is retreating and now trading around $86,900 with a negative bias. If it falls below $85,000, it is likely to continue its bearish cycle and could reach 0/8 Murray around $75,000. If Bitcoin breaks above the downtrend channel and consolidates above $87,000, there is likely to be an upward movement, and it could reach the psychological level of $100,000 in the short term. We must keep an eye on this key level around $87,500. Downward pressure on the price will persist below this zone, and we could expect it to reach $81,250 and $75,000. The outlook could be positive for Bitcoin if it settles $88,000. In this case, the price could reach $93,7…

Today, the price of the precious metal is holding near yesterday's closing high as traders assess the increased likelihood of a December interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve following dovish statements by policymakers. The latest surge in gold prices was driven by rising expectations of a rate cut, and U.S. economic data released with a delay on Tuesday further reinforced these expectations. New York Federal Reserve President John Williams said on Friday that he is confident rates can be lowered soon without jeopardizing the central bank's inflation target. In turn, Fed Governor Christopher Waller noted on Monday that labor market conditions are soft enough to justify…

Gold is trading around 4,122, undergoing a technical correction after reaching 4,150. The metal is expected to go ahead with a technical correction and could find good support around the 21 SMA located at 4,085. The outlook remains positive for gold, and we expect that after a technical correction, it could continue its rise in the coming days to reach the 7/8 Murray located at 4,215. It could even reach the psychological level of 4,300. Gold has strong support around 6/8 Murray located at 4,062, which is likely to cause a technical rebound in this area and will be seen as an opportunity to buy in the short term. Gold could reach weekly resistance levels around the 7/8 Mu…

Gold's strong rally yesterday, along with its tilt toward the rising 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) on the 4-hour chart, confirmed the bulls' advantage in the market. The positive oscillators on both the 4-hour and daily charts also support the likelihood of further upside in XAU/USD in the near term. Therefore, further strengthening beyond the $4145–4150 level toward resistance at $4180 — on the way to the round $4200 level — appears quite likely. The momentum could continue and test the monthly high near $4245. On the other hand, any pullback into the level of the 9- and 14-period EMAs on the same chart may be seen as a buying opportunity, with strong suppo…

Today, on Tuesday, the euro strengthened against the US dollar as weaker-than-expected US economic data weighed on investor sentiment, causing the dollar to weaken. This contributed to a sharp rebound of the euro to a five-day high. US data, released with a delay, showed that the PPI — the overall Producer Price Index — rose by 0.3% month-over-month in September, in line with expectations after a 0.1% decline in August, while the annual reading remained at 2.7%. However, the core components were weaker. New comments from Federal Reserve officials also boosted expectations of another rate cut in December, putting additional pressure on the US dollar and creating a supporti…

How the Day-Trading Options Market Works Options Trading Strategies While watching a business news segment, you may have heard that over 100 million stock options traded in a single day. This number is staggeringbut accurate. Research shows that average daily stock options volume ranges from 50–60 million contracts, with high-volatility days pushing volume well above 100 million. Why is options day trading exploding in popularity? Because options offer leverage, fast price movement, and the potential for large percentage gains in short timeframes. But that same volatility also makes them high-risk. This guide explains how the day-trading options market works, why o…

The 4-hour wave pattern for EUR/USD has transformed, but overall it remains quite clear. There is no talk of canceling the upward trend segment that began in January 2025, but the wave structure has become significantly more complex and extended since July 1. In my view, the pair is in the process of forming corrective wave 4, which has taken on an unconventional shape. Within this wave we see exclusively corrective structures, so there is no doubt about the corrective nature of the decline. In my opinion, the formation of the upward trend segment is not complete, and its targets extend up to the 1.25 level. The a-b-c-d-e series of waves looks complete; therefore, I expec…

A recent claim that the Bitcoin price could surge to $220,000 in just 45 days has drawn sharp criticism from a financial strategist. The analyst frames such ambitious forecasts as unrealistic and highly speculative. Considering the recent decline in the BTC market, if the projection is taken at face value without supporting data, it overlooks ongoing market trends, macroeconomic conditions, and potential investor risks. Strategist Labels $220,000 Bitcoin Price Forecast “Nonsense” South Korean scientist YoungHoon Kim, who holds the world’s highest reported IQ of 276, recently predicted that Bitcoin could more than double its current price and reach $220,000 within 45 day…

For the GBP/USD pair, the wave pattern continues to indicate the formation of an upward trend segment (bottom chart), but over the past several weeks it has taken on a complex and extended form (top chart). The trend segment that began on July 1 can be considered wave 4, or any global corrective wave, since it has a corrective rather than impulsive internal wave structure. The same applies to its internal sub-waves. Therefore, despite the prolonged decline of the pound, I believe the upward trend remains intact. The downward wave structure that began on September 17 has taken the shape of a five-wave a-b-c-d-e pattern and may be complete. If this is indeed the case, the p…

The Kimberley Process (KP) has failed for a third straight year to agree on an expanded definition of conflict diamonds after a five-day plenary in Dubai. Delegates from 86 member countries arrived with expectations that long-delayed reforms might finally advance. Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022, pressure has intensified to modernize the definition of conflict diamonds, and media reports suggested negotiators were close to a breakthrough. World Diamond Council (WDC) president Feriel Zerouki opened the meeting by warning that the KP stood at a crossroads and urged members to move the system forward. The effort collapsed anyway. The WDC said it felt …

Amid global mine disruptions and strong momentum on the demand side, UBS sees copper prices rising even higher heading into next year, with a market deficit that is expected to widen. In a note published on Friday, UBS analysts lifted their copper price forecasts for successive quarters of 2026, beginning with $11,500 a tonne for March, followed by $12,000 and $12,500 for June and September respectively. They also introduced a first target for December at $13,000 a tonne. The new forecasts, according to the bank’s analysts, are largely down to persistent supply risks and falling inventories that are expected to keep conditions tight. UBS noted that mine…

Managing significant retirement savings can feel overwhelming in a world where inflation, market swings, and rising national debt challenge long-term security. Many affluent retirees look for stability that traditional paper assets struggle to provide. Physical gold and other IRS-approved precious metals offer a way to anchor retirement savings with assets that have stood the test of time. The Growing Financial Stress Facing Affluent Retirees Affluent pre-retirees and retirees often carry the added weight of protecting large nest eggs in a financial environment that feels less predictable each year. When the goal is lifelong stability, uncertainty only increases pressure.…

Silver (XAG/USD) has stalled its gigantic rally higher as a more hawkish Fed pricing and lower economic projections have effectively brought a top to the precious industrial metal. After forming a clear double top at its all-time highs of $54.50, Silver retraced lower to just graze below the psychological $50 mark. Still, the metal's resilience to correct lower suggests that the underlying dovish catalysts haven't entirely disappeared. NY Fed President John Williams recently revived hopes for a 25 basis point cut, pushing the odds for the December meeting back up to around 70%. This pricing was further consolidated by a raft of weak data released this morning: PPI …

XRP traders are once again arguing about upside targets after popular chartist Charting Guy reposted a bullish long-term setup and doubled down on his call that XRP can still reach $8 this cycle. “XRP still going to $8, idc,” he wrote on X in the early hours of Nov. 25, alongside a weekly XRP/USD chart from Bitstamp. XRP Price Still Has Room To Run At the time of the screenshot, XRP was trading around $2.25, up roughly 9.8% on the week, with the chart plotting an Elliott Wave structure from early 2023 into a projected peak in 2026. The analysis is built on a dense Fibonacci framework spanning from about $0.25 to a 1.272 extension at $8.29661, which anchors his upside tar…

Britain plans to lift the share of critical minerals it gets from domestic mines and recycling to 30% by 2035, up from about 6% today, under a new 10-year strategy that mirrors US, Canadian and EU efforts to cut dependence on China-dominated supply chains. The Critical Minerals Strategy, published Saturday, sets binding targets to meet 10% of demand from domestic production, 20% from recycling and to cap reliance on any single foreign supplier at 60% for each mineral. The move puts the UK more firmly in the Western camp seeking to reduce exposure to China and, for some metals, Russia. “Critical minerals are the backbone of modern life and our national security,” P…

Ether held firm on Tuesday as the market tried to settle after a rough November shaped by derivatives resets, collapsing gas fees, and the build-up to a new US futures launch next month. Ethereum (ETH), the second-largest crypto asset, traded near $2,920 in the afternoon. As per Coingecko data, the price was up about +4% in the past 24 hours as traders looked for signs of stability after weeks of heavy pressure.

Highland Copper Company (TSXV: HI) is selling its 34% stake in the White Pine North project to private equity firm Kinterra, its joint venture partner, to focus solely on its flagship Copperwood project, the Michigan-focused miner said on Tuesday. Total consideration of the sale is around $30 million. Of that, $18.3 million will be paid in cash, net of the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the loan made by Kinterra to Highland Copper, which would total $11.7 million at closing. The parties have agreed to suspend cash calls under their joint operating agreement. Highland Copper traded flat on the news at C$0.12 a share, giving the Toronto-based copper d…

The XRP price is showing signs of recovery after crashing under $2 earlier last week due to broader market volatility and decline. With its renewed momentum, analysts are now sharing optimistic projections about its future trajectory. New reports from market expert, Egrag Crypto, highlight the reappearance of a crucial technical signal that could trigger a major trend reversal for XRP. Based on the formation of this signal, XRP may be positioning for an explosive price surge that contradicts the previous bearish developments. XRP Price Chart Forms Bullish EMA Cross Signal Egrag Crypto has described the cross between two key Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) as “the real …
