Barrick Mining (NYSE: B; TSX: ABX) has agreed to sell its last operating gold mine in Canada, marking a significant milestone as the company shifts its focus toward copper.

Thursday Trade Review:1H Chart of EUR/USD The EUR/USD currency pair demonstrated strong growth on Thursday and continues to remain in its new upward trend, although the movement is still somewhat weak. It feels like market makers are waiting for the right moment—and that moment has not yet arrived. Recall that the dollar still has every reason to keep falling: nothing has fundamentally improved in the US lately to justify a dollar rally. Yesterday, the ECB decided to keep all monetary policy parameters unchanged, signaling to the market that policy easing won't occur any time soon. Meanwhile, the Fed is set to resume cutting its key rate as early as next week, and in …

On the hourly chart, the GBP/USD pair continued to decline on Tuesday, remaining below the 50.0% retracement level at 1.3387. On Wednesday morning, the pair rebounded from this level and began a new downward move following the release of the UK inflation report. Thus, a consolidation of quotes below the support level of 1.3354–1.3357 would indicate the potential for a continued decline toward the next retracement level of 23.6% at 1.3313. A rebound from the 1.3354–1.3357 level, however, could signal a reversal in favor of the pound and a resumption of the bullish trend. The wave situation turned bullish almost in a single day. The last completed downward wave broke the…

To meet the world’s future needs, copper prices must at least double their current levels in order to incentivize companies to build more mines, a study published in the latest issue of the SEG Discovery journal suggests. According to the study, led by researchers from the University of Michigan, Cornell University and the University of Queensland, the problem isn’t about finding enough copper in the ground, but the rate at which companies are mining to satiate the rapid consumption of metal driven by two major themes: economic development and clean energy. These two drivers of demand are at odds when it comes to how resources are to be allocated, because, as the …

Navigating the global economy and managing capital market volatility has always posed challenges, but the uncertainties emanating from Washington make this task exceptionally treacherous. The so-called reciprocal tariffs announced on April 2 were postponed for 90 days just one week later, ostensibly to usher in a period of intensive negotiations. Yet a few weeks into this cooling-off period, despite claims of dozens of deals in the pipeline, the Trump administration acknowledged it "lacked the capacity" to negotiate with everyone simultaneously. Instead, it indicated it would simply announce new tariff schedules unilaterally in what appears to be a second "Liberation Day.…

Ethereum (ETH) is retesting a crucial resistance level amid its daily 3% recovery. The cryptocurrency has been rejected from this area since last month’s market recovery, failing to continue its bullish rally. As its price continues its sideways trajectory, an analyst suggests that a 15% move is coming. Ethereum Price Compressing Within Key Levels Since its early May breakout, Ethereum has been trading between the $2,475-$2,680 price range, failing to turn the range’s upper boundary as support for nearly a month. Amid last week’s market pullback, the cryptocurrency retraced around 11% from its three-month high of $2,788 to the range’s lower boundary, bouncing from this …

The Euro is rallying despite the 25bps cut from the European Central Bank from this morning. The ECB Deposit Rate is now at 2% from 2.25%. The fact that the markets had the cut priced in (well-expected) led to prices were broadly unchanged - markets seesawed but came right back to their level from the beginning of the session. As I am writing this, markets are rallying on the "We are well positioned" comments from Christine Lagarde, speaking right now. Christine Lagarde is speaking on the ongoing press conference mentioned that Inflation (core inflation) is targeted to be on target towards 2027, therefore there is still need for some change. She also mentioned how a s…

Perth-based cybersecurity specialist Matt Breuillac of Cyber Node Perth-based ethical hacker – or ‘white hat’ – is warning that some miners, mining contractors and energy companies and their service providers are currently easy to hack and they should be testing their protections against cyber-attack more rigorously. Originally from France, Breuillac has worked as a chemical engineer in the nuclear industry as well as supervised the emergency procedures for uranium mines in Kazakhstan. “Some mining companies (particularly tier two and tier three miners in Australia) are woefully unprepared in their cyber-security protections and many are a decade behind Europe…

Last week, the US dollar fell to new lows for the year against half the G10 currencies, including sterling, the Norwegian krone, and Canadian, Australian, and New Zealand dollars. A key question is whether it is a breakout and a signal that ana acceleration of the dollar's decline is at hand. On balance, and within a larger downtrend, we think there is a better case for the dollar trade consolidate with a firmer bias in the near-term. The three-month moving average of nonfarm payrolls rose in both April and May. The unemployment rate has been steady at 4.2% for the past three months. From the Fed's vantage point, it is not signaling a new for urgent action. This will allo…

According to social media buzz, the growing clash between Elon Musk and US President Donald Trump has sent ripples through the crypto world. Musk’s public swipe at a recent spending bill kicked things off. Then came Trump’s warning to yank Musk’s government contracts. It got messy fast. And now, some believe XRP could come out on top. Elon Musk-Trump Feud Spurs Crypto Talk Musk took to Twitter on June 4 to slam what he called reckless government spending. His post warned of “serious economic risks.” Not long after, Trump fired back. He threatened to pull subsidies and contracts tied to Tesla. That response sent Tesla’s stock tumbling. Investors watched $150 billion in m…

Battery metals markets remain under pressure as falling prices and oversupply weigh on producers, with little sign of a near-term rebound, the last analysis from Fastmarkets, a cross-commodity price reporting agency, shows. Despite ongoing growth in electric vehicle (EV) sales, market fundamentals for lithium, cobalt, nickel, manganese, graphite, and recycled materials continue to deteriorate, driven by excess supply, sluggish investment and mounting policy uncertainty, according to the report. Lithium prices have seen the sharpest decline. Spodumene spot prices in China fell 19.1% in May to $612.50 per tonne, down 30% since January. Lithium carbonate prices dropp…

Ethereum has shown signs of regaining momentum after a recent period of decline. The asset is currently trading at approximately $2,540, reflecting a modest 1% daily increase.

Recent insights from a CryptoQuant analyst have focused on how ETH’s long-term behavior aligns with certain key indicators, which may help define price floors and signa…

The second edition of our Rare Earths series breaks down global extraction at the mine level, country by country. It then regroups those nations into five geopolitical spheres of control: the American Sphere, Chinese Sphere, Russian Sphere, Coalition of the Willing, and the Undrafted. While the first graphic showed the American Sphere holding 25% of global reserves and the Chinese Sphere 53%, this update shows a stark imbalance in actual output. The Chinese Sphere dominates mine-level extraction, generating a staggering 77% of the world’s rare earth production.

Silver pierced the $37 level for a fresh 13-year high on Tuesday, as market sentiments shifted towards risk-off assets amid rising tensions in the Middle East. Spot silver jumped as much as 2.2% to $37.26 per ounce, its highest since early 2012. Silver futures saw a similar rise, trading as high as $37.33 per ounce in New York. Silver’s breakout follows speculation that the US is preparing for a more direct intervention in the Israel-Iran conflict, adding further uncertainty to global markets. Gold muted During times of crisis, investors tend to seek safe haven in precious metals like gold and silver. However, despite this narrative, gold saw a m…

Log in to today’s North American session Recap for June 18 Today's session was filled with headlines surrounding the ongoing Iran-Israel conflict, but markets have shown limited reaction—at least for now. One potential trigger for broader risk-off sentiment remains the possibility of direct U.S. involvement, which appears increasingly likely. President Trump, true to form, has remained characteristically vague on the matter. On the sidenote, markets have been cut short from their volatility despite a well-anticipated FED Meeting and the release of the Summary of Economic Projections. Only cryptocurrencies have corrected amid some continuation of profit-taking. Oil pri…

How Smart Trading Bots Adapt to Shifting Market Conditions EUR/USD in Transition: How Smart Trading Bots Adapt to Shifting Market Conditions Few currency pairs respond as sharply, or as inconsistently, to shifting global narratives as EUR/USD. Over the past two years, it’s moved through cycles of breakout rallies, grinding consolidations, and policy-fueled whiplash. Traders navigating uncertainty. What worked one quarter falls flat the next. Staying consistent in that environment means more than reacting quickly. It means reading structure, spotting transitions early, and executing without hesitation. That’s where modern trading systems, from AI-driven bots to rul…

In the 1870’s in Colorado, the discovery of huge amounts of silver ore in the mountains triggered a massive silver boom. Silver mining expanded significantly in the state over the next decade, and Leadville became known as the “Silver Capital of America.” Colorado mountain towns saw explosive population growth and prosperity driven by mining. However, the silver boom period slid into a bust. Changes to the global international monetary systems relating to precious metals triggered a collapse in the price of silver, which directly impacted the Colorado silver mining towns. In the 1870s, many countries, including Holland, France, Belgium, Italy, Switzerland, and Greece, s…
