Investment Strategy Insights - The market analysis indicates that e-commerce is currently crowded, while the internet sector remains relatively low.

The suggested investment strategy is to focus on long-term potential while being cautious of high crowding in certain sectors [7]. Precious Metals Outlook - Analysts suggest that the long-term upward trend in gold prices remains intact due to factors such as de-dollarization and central bank gold purchases. Short-term market dynamics, including adjustments in non-farm payroll data and interest rate expectations, are expected to support gold price increases. Silver is also gaining attention as it transitions from an industrial role to a valuable asset, driven by both industrial demand and financial attributes [10][11].
